Comments Thread For: Arum: Pacquiao's Shoulder Was Fine Going Into 5/2

[Robbie Barrett]

Well, at least you stick to your guns and admit it.

Mayweather is a great fighter, he was beating Pacquaio before the injury re-occurred (although slow-mo reveals the rounds were much closer than when I watched live). It doesn't change the fact however that sadly Pacquaio was injured during the fight, and did require and have surgery.

Some people refuse to believe that, and that's what frustrated me. To deny logical reasoning and facts is plain ignorance.

Arum just kicked, not throw, pac and the pac nation under the bus for a lie that he started.

Smart lawyer. Distance self. Soon he will say he hadnt heard of it till after the fight.

Once again, you can't highlight anything. You can't prove me wrong, because I've never stated what you are implying. I've always said he re-injured it during the fight, and he did injure his shoulder during training, the article even states that.

Keep trying and failing Dunn.

To answer your question, no, I don't. You obviously believe a renowned sports physician and doctor would risk losing his job, reputation and license and perform surgery on a perfectly fine human being for the sake of it.

#48 loss fair and square! He went from being hurt before the fight to be 100% to be hurt in round 4 but throwing crazy punches in round 6 while not mentioning his shoulder at all during the corner. 48-0 biitch #48 got his ass whipped deal with it

Mayweather also had a torn rotator cuff, he managed to still throw hooks and jabs (despite saying he couldn't), and held the belts up at the end of the fight. It doesn't mean he wasn't injured or wasn't affected by it.

What happened to it's too painful to lift your own arm? Are you saying Mayweather lied about his injury?

.... when did Floyd Mayweather Jr ever say he had a torn rotator cuff?

He said that his hands and shoulders were hurt; the man's history of brittle hands has been well documented. He spoke of his own ailments, noted that, had the decision gone the other way, he wouldn't have leaned on them as an excuse, and went back to how he still found a way to win.

or more logical thinking would be to try and sell a rematch to the public after his horrible performance they came up with the excuse that he tore it during fight I mean it was a injury he had since 2009 he could of gotten surgery when he took that break after the Marquez ko

I just did idiot. You're obviously either too slow or too obsessed with Pacquiao for it to process.

Let's try this again. You don't get a numbing agent injected when there is no pain or injuries.

You don't take cough syrup because you were coughing five years ago or five weeks ago. Unless...

Understand now dumbass ? Did that sink in? I doubt it. You're too ******.

You don't take cough syrup precautionary because if you've just recently had a cough your body has already created an immunity to that strain of virus... the chance of you becoming ill again from a similar illness is slim. You also can't predict when you will become ill, but you can make an assumption you are likely to be injured again in an intense fight. Go back to school and study immunology and some physiotherapy.

When you have an injury recently, you are at an increased likelihood of injuring it again. Have you ever even had an injury? Such a moron, really.

All of us that do not believe Manny and Bob have given you reasons why. You never want to address those issues, you just want Manny to be believed because you believe him. The man lied one way or the other-why wont you admit that?

The man has been telling you for 5 years he is saved yet when the time comes he lied just like he used to. Doesn't that say anything to you? Bob has 3 different versions of when the injury happened. does that go into your believing if it is real?

Sorry dude but without an excuse there is no rematch. with no rematch there is no more big paydays. Manny has $40-60 million reasons to lie to you dude?

I guess the bottom line is if you're that injured coming into a fight then postpone it. Regardless of the future implications.

Manny didn't do that. So we have to assume he was OK coming into the fight. So lets say he injured his shoulder during the fight. Where was the visual?

When Vitali tore his rotator cuft, it was obvious. It was almost as if the shoulder was hanging unnaturally. I didn't see this from Pacquiao. I also didn't hear him complain to his corner or even favor the shoulder.

He waited until after his L to start complaining. That's poor sportsmanship, specifically for the sport of Boxing.

That's one of boxing's unwritten rules. Don't speak on your injury if you lose. Period.

Emmanual Steward revealed years later that Tommy Hearns was suffering from dehydration going into the Hagler fight. Hearns himself never mentioned it (at least not in the post fight).

That's class. Pacquiao exposed himself.

[Real Talk85]

So here it was a recurring injury that plagued him up until the fight to where he had to take pain killers

But now he was fine up until he got hurt in the fourth?

GTFO

So he had surgery on himself to fix nothing, cool to know.
