Pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather said he dislocated his left elbow in the middle of his majority decision over previously unbeaten Saul Alvarez.
The 36-year-old Mayweather earned a record $41 million purse Saturday for a dominating 12-round victory in which he claimed Alvarez's World Boxing Council and World Boxing Association super welterweight belts.
"I could have used more combinations down the stretch. I think I dislocated my elbow," said Mayweather during the post-fight news conference.
Mayweather said that for rounds six and seven he couldn't use his jab because of the suspected dislocated elbow, although round seven still turned out to be one of his strongest of the fight.
