Breaking news: Pacquiao to have shoulder surgery for "significant tear" in his right rotator cuff, according to Dr. Neal ElAttrache.
Lance Pugmire of the Los Angeles Times added further details on Pacquiao's timeline to return to the ring:

Manny Pacquiao will undergo surgery on his right shoulder for a rotator cuff tear this week on LA and be out 4-6 months, his advisor reports
However, Rafael reported that the recovery time was closer to 9-to-12 months.
"It's part of the game," Pacquiao said of his injury after the fight Saturday, per ESPN.com news services. "I don't want to make alibis or complain or anything...[but] it's hard to fight one-handed."
The ESPN.com report mentions promoter Bob Arum, who indicated that Pacquiao hurt himself sometime after mid-March.
Matt Moscona of ESPN Radio Baton Rouge weighed in on the situation:

So Pacquiao was fighting with a torn rotator cuff and still pulled off what many believe was a victory for Manny. That guarantees a post-surgery rematch, right? #tellmewhowinsnow

He’s the Jack Johnson of his lifetime. Johnson was hated even more I bet, but there wasn’t internet posts about him, just newspapers and radio probably.Comment

Sterfloyd does it to himself. He's insanely jealous of other fighters who get the credit and praise that he thinks he shorcutted his way into...but real fans recognize real and Sterfloyd is simply the Harlem Globetrotters of Boxing.
Anytime there's a big fight announced, he has to come out with some lie about fighting UFC or he's gonna fight Jake Paul or he's gonna release his life story etc etc....it's Sterfloyd's ego and tax bill that will eventually get him back into the ring for a real fight....and that's when his OFFICIAL unbeaten record will be gone...and a 4th loss added to his REAL record.
Be ready, Sterfloydiots, time waits for no man...nor does the Tax Man, who cometh.Comment

Pacquiao was doped up to the gills and still lost. Media didn’t report it because he isn’t a black American. Floyd 50-0 and still relevant TBE

- - Don't care what a bunch of gibbering gibbons think.
Vegas Commish had Manny in the Red corner winning, so having to jigger the recorded results to give l'l floydy drug cheat the win makes the result suspect if not completely crooked.
Sorta like Tricky Dlcky saying, "I'm not a crook."
Sorry hear a complete moron is smarter than U.Comment
