    Breaking news: Guerrero to have arthroscopic surgery on shoulder

    by Lem Satterfield
    Aug 24th, 2011


    Robert Guerrero will receive arthroscopic surgery Tuesday to repair a torn tendon in the rotator cuff of his left shoulder, the fighter told Ring tv .com.

    The decision was made after a 90-minute examination that included a second MRI by Dr. Michael Dillingham, who told Guerrero that he must refrain from even light exercise for four weeks and will be out of the ring for as long as six months.

    Dillingham is the team physician for the San Francisco 49ers.

    Guerrero (29-1-1, 18 knockouts) had been preparing to face Marcos Maidana for what the WBA calls its "regular" title on Aug. 27 but had to pull out after he injured the shoulder throwing a punch during sparring.

    Side note from ThePhantom5 - WAR 49ers!!!

    I'm sure this officially kills any hope of a rescheduling a Maidana fight

      Its a pretty small surgery and a pretty small injury to be honest. He should be healed in a month or so and then will take a month or two to get into the ring and start training camp again.

          If you say so, Dr. Medved.

              His career is over.

              He will never be the same.

                  Are you guys serious?!!

                  It's just his shoulder. You hardly even use it. You mostly use your fists.

                    I've had the same op on my shoulder and it doesn't take long to heal at all. It leaves a tiny scar and the repair job is simple.

                    6 months is still a long time on the shelf but he would be able to schedule a fight in 6 months.
