Comments Thread For: NSAC Chairman Disputes Arum's Details on Pac's Injury

[lacson]

So NSAC knew the meds he was taking. They asked to take it before the fight and it was refused? That is so corrupt. And the reason they said it was refused is because they didn't know what the injury he was taking it for? That's such BS. If they didn't know shouldn't they have asked them, they had all the time in the world to ask.

For the biggest sports event in history you want both fighters to be in the best possible shape to provide the best possible performance. You don't want to be the one to ruin this once in a lifetime event.

I feel cheated out of a great fight.

Why didn't Roach, just shoot the Legal Roids into Pac's bad shoulder...

Why ask the NSAC, in the first place, if there legal Roids???

Dosen't Floyd use a similar substance, to ease the pain, in his brittle Paws???

Most of the betting $$$ was on Pac,

Did the NSAC save the A$$ of the Bookmakers???

They didnt know anything until a few hours from from fight , they called Arum a liar .
Roach said Manny told him in the corner another lie .

Manny got schooled and threw more right hands after the 3rd .

Nothing but a bunch of whiny ass losers , Manny and his BS fans got schooled so they can all fck off with their sour g**** BS .

when you are allowed to do whatever you want. Legal, questionable or not legal.


Here is Floyd laying an egg.



Here is what Barney and others thought of Floyd and Kenny Bayless

They royally screwed pacman. Who cares if they weren't notified until 6:30. They said they already knew he was taking the shots because he disclosed the medication on the medical questionnaire. And then they go ahead and deny him his medication so it could be a fair fight?. I guarantee they let mayweather take his xylocaine shots in his knuckles before the fight like they do every fight.

2 pages in and this is likely the first person who actually read the article.

What's important here is pac's injury was true.

4 pages in and this is likely the second person who read/understood the article.

man i'm glad this whole Manny hype is done with, what happened to the relentless combination puncher, the angles, the footwork, man as soon as he took the test to fight floyd he looked mediocre, i would've preferred to watch a 3rd maidana fight than this fake azz legend, he'll get inducted in the HOF but was a totally different fighter after he took the tests Mayweather wanted him to take all along

Read carefully:

"The medications he was taking were disclosed on his medical questionnaire, but not the actual injury."

The commission had no information about an injury. Manny could have been taking medications for migraines for all they knew.

It's reported that Arum claimed Manny had a rotator cuff injury similar to Kobe Bryant's. If Manny had an injury of this nature, it's ludicrous to believe that he initially took a few days off and got back to work with the help of some anti-inflammatories.

Acute rotator cuff injuries often require surgery, especially with athletes who hope to restore full strength, and even if the decision was made to delay surgery, the idea that Manny would have been able to resume full training so quickly doesn't seem realistic.

Of course, we wouldn't have to speculate if Manny and his team had actually disclosed details about the injury before the fight. The fact that they didn't doesn't exactly help their case.

It's a good thing we have Floyd's orthopedic surgeon fans on this site to clear such things up.

What's interesting about all of this is that USADA approved shots to the shoulder and medication he was mandated by doctors to take but the NSAC is in complete denial. Deadspin has more accurate details on the situation than Boxingscene has (no big surprise these days). I think it's bad form to put this information out now, if he was injured in March that should've been said/leaked back then. At this point I don't think anyone genuinely cares whether he was or even if it was a serious injury.

If it would have been leaked that Manny had an injury to the right shoulder, what is not to stop Floyd from specifically targeting the injury? Punches to the shoulder are not illegal in boxing. They are in fact an occasional tactic. It makes perfect sense to me why Pacqiauo's camp wouldn't want such information leaked. I don't think it is normal protocol for boxers to leak training injuries going into a fight.

What's more, the medication was disclosed and approved. NSAC is the one that is looking bad from my perspective. They are corrupt as hell though, which is well known.
