Comments Thread For: Doctors Weigh In On Errol Spence's Vision-Saving Torn Retina Discovery

[OldTerry]

So as well as a retinal tear he obviously has a brain issue? Please tell me you're a neurologist for a living otherwise you need to go back to your sewing and slow your heart rate down.

You don't have to be a doctor to see the symptoms. We will know more as Spence's future unfolds, but it's not looking that great for him.

He doesn't seem to understand simple concepts of a man's health. I think if he sees a man having a stroke. Rodtang will assume he's not dying lol

BS is owned by CBS and Showtime so they perpetuate the PBC propaganda. That is why you get so many shill articles

Yeah another fake out.. I got played. Thought that Gerber guy was Spence Surgeon. It was a random.. Geez.. nonsense article..

Abner Mares might have done permanent damage to his eye. It will be interesting if he ever comes back like he says he's going to.

He wears those shades for a reason now. You can't tell where he's looking anymore. Doubt he gets back in the ring. I recall them mentioning him for Tank at one point and I'm happy for him that didn't happen.

Manny makes Spence, PBC, and all of CBS start acting out of character. Even at 42 years he still keeps opponents unsteady...

Just ask Keith Thurman, Adrien Broner, Matthyse, Vargas, etc.

No matter how you spin it, it's basically a career ender. Injuries like this mentally diminish your confidence in your body to handle the punishment and it's never strong as before.

It's basically a ticking time bomb.

Spence will try and get his last couple of paychecks then retire.

I thought he'd move to 154 after Pacquiao but that is out of the window now.

I think I got about 10 comments in before I started shaking my head with my face in my palm….I swear there are far too many mental patients posting on this forum

By Corey Erdman - When it was announced that Errol Spence Jr. had sustained a retinal tear and would not be able to fight Manny Pacquiao on August 21, there was a collective sense of disappointment that boxing had lost perhaps its biggest fight of the year. However, there should have also been a feeling of relief, as the injury being discovered ahead of time may have preserved the career of one of the sport's brightest stars.

During a pre-fight medical examination, doctors with the Nevada State Athletic Commission discovered the tear and recommended emergency surgery. Spence flew home to Dallas and had surgery two days later.

Do all fights have pre-fight medical examination?

Let’s cut the excuses fanboys. Spence Jr will be back and better than ever. Just like he said. So when he loses, I don’t want to hear excuses about the eye or the accident. The better man will have beaten him.
