Did Team Mayweather Lie About Shoulder Injury?

[Addison]

In an article featured at the HBO website matching the live commentary of Larry Merchant; Floyd Mayweather is reported to have injured his left shoulder training for the Jose Luis Castillo fight.

They wonder if Castillo, who employs a similar style but is far heavier-handed and also superior technically, will have more success. What nobody knows at the time is two days before the fight Mayweather injured his left shoulder while working on the heavybag. His physician diagnoses a strained rotator cuff and Mayweather keeps quiet about it but speaks disparagingly about Castillo, predicting an easy win.

Floyd Mayweather later indicates he injured his right shoulder training for the Jose Luis Castillo fight on the TV program 'Soul Of A Champion.'

WHICH SHOULDER WAS IT???

EDIT:

Note how the article says the doctor diagnosed a "strained rotator cuff" and Mayweather alleges he "tore his rotator cuff" on 'Soul Of A Champion.'

I think it's a case of HBO messing the details up. I'm guessing Floyd knows which shoulder he messed up better than HBO.

I just don't think that Floyd woould g\care enough to go through all that unneccesary BS.

Injured shoulder or not, theres no excuses for robberies.............but yeah i think Floyd was injured, he hinted that after the first round...just as well theres no excuses for the second fight, which floyd clearly won...

Did HBO mess up that crucial fact twice?

Because that's why I went through the trouble of getting a second source.

Kaynan, Floyd told his corner it was the LEFT shoulder during the fight according to the commentary team and it's producers and directors.

If this is a lie then Floyd is making EXCUSES.

Sad, strange excuses for Castillo I...


We now know he exaggerated the injury saying it was torn when it was only strained.


Creepy..

I don't believe it. He didn't show any signs of either arm being hurt.
