    Was Hopkins' Shoulder Really Dislocated?

    I'm not convinced. I think the injury they were looking for was separation.



    The doctor actually says dislocation. As far as I'm aware a dislocation is visible. It means your shoulder is out of its proper location. Separation type 1 i believe is not always visible. The joint is just separated... not dislocated.

      No it was not dislocated, he wouldn't be able to keep his arm straight, let aone shrug his shoulders in to show Kellerman the difference between his shoulders in the post fight interview.

              Yes... thank you. I'm aware of the reports of a separation and a little confused because they don't coincide with dr thurber's report.

                Yeah it was a separated shoulder. That was the medical reports on ESPN after the fight.

                  The report said dislocation... not separation.
