Manny Pacquiao didn't walk away unscathed from that championship bout after all -- his people say he's laid up in bed with injuries to his ribs and wrist
Manny's reps just showed up at our office and told us Manny is being seen by a doctor right now at his home in L.A. ... to determine if he fractured any bones during the fight with Antonio Margarito.
Manny's camp says that's why he couldn't make it for today's TMZ Live ... as scheduled.
One person connected with Manny tells us he was in bed this morning in pain, laying in a fetal position.

For those doubting this story is real, just head over to TMZ, where Manny was scheduled to do a live interview but couldn't show up cuz of his injuries

just remove the space after the period in tmz to go directly to the story
that's the synopsis
What up man.. Tony's a warrior and he had Pac hurt (says something about Tony's power IMO) and in more trouble than anyone I can remember.. **** had me worried. Tony did what he could, but Mannys movement/speed was too much.
Those non-glamous hard shots to the body had me worried. Margarito, though, slow is strong specially for the smaller boxer in Pacquiao.
I have no doubt if Pacquiao is in a fetal position the next morning.
what I was told by Ariza and one other guy was that Manny is indeed very sore from the Margarito fight and that they haven't seen Manny this banged up to the body ever.
to me him standing up after the assault Tony did to his body is even more of a testament to how bad ass Manny is
And to how hard Tony does indeed punch!
Even though Tony wasn't winning the fight, I though he was still fairly competitive early on when he was stalking Manny but once that body shot landed I knew the fight was over....a while back I remember seeing a video where Barrera said when Pac lands that big left to the body it takes all the life out of the opponent.
Was a very good fight to watch. Good skill, good brawling a couple "oh ****" moments.
I must have missed that shot Pac landed and I cannot find any pics. Anyone fine a good clip/picture of that wicked body shot Pac landed?

yeah, that was a crazy round (I believe it was 4) when Manny landed that left to Marg's body, I felt that shit too, and from that point on, as Marg try to recover, it's too late since Manny already landed multiple combos to his face, causing the cut to Marg's right eye.
How is Manny damaged goods? I don`t believe his preparation was thorough for this fight but the Manny which steps into the ring with PBF will be ready for sure, not that the fight will happen, Floyd ducked Margo and retired rather than face Cotto. His 0 means nothing now..
At least you don't agree with your fellow Pacmaniacs.
But let's hope Floyd announces he'll step in the ring against Manny to prove who's really the best.
Isn't that were Manny cut his lips?
Maybe, he was a mess after that round. And did well to survive it. Manny seemed gassed for a couple rounds but Tony was off from that one body shot until the end of the night.
baldo outweighted floyd by 19...just saying. riuz outweighted roy jones by damn near 30 pounds
LOL and what did Floyd do....run haha. Don't report me, I don't say anything racist.
they mentioned another body shot prior (I think the 3rd) where Manny kind of grunted then the uppercut combo Tony landed stunned Manny too
but again it's amazing to me that instead of going into a shell when hurt a guy like Manny fires back harder
amazing stuff to be honest
Dude, you've got to watch it in HD, slo-mo. Crunching punches square on his jaw.
