Do you believe Pacquiao had a injured right shoulder?

[Bird1]

Ok, so let us vote here.

Here are some arguments and points.

NSAC confirmed that Team Pacquiao did request anti-inflammatory less than two hours before the fight. But they were denied because they had not disclosed the injury previously. So this strengthens their argument a bit in my opinion. But why didn't they report the injury earlier if it was a problem?

They said Pacquiao re-injured his shoulder in the third round, but I think he had great success in the fourth and his right did not seem to bother him. I didn't see any signs of an injury during the fight.

He did not mention his right shoulder in the post fight interview. Maybe it was constructed afterwards before the press conference to try to do some damage control?

And of course, if the right shoulder was a big problem they really should have postponed the fight.

No, I think Roach and Arum told him to do it at the spur of the moment. Like in the group huddle.

Pacquiao fought a very left-handed fight, and didn’t throw his right jab nor right hook nearly enough. This along with the week off that he took from sparring, the USADA cream, and not reaching the goal of 100 rounds during training camp suggest that it's true.

[Robbie Barrett]

Never mentioned it in the corner or post fight interview. Had his best round the round after he supposedly "injured" his shoulder, throwing right hooks with power and showed no signs of pain.




It's a bull**** excuse.

He wasn't injured. The look on Manny's face when he was asked why he thought he won the fight said it all.

[Barcham]

I have no reason to believe otherwise but I also feel that even if he was at 100% the outcome would have been the same. So in the end it made no difference at all and should not have been mentioned for at least another week or so.

No its BS , watch the fight not a single word in the corner , not a rub on the shoulder , not a single flinch on throwing a punch , and worst of all telling everybody he was in the best shape of his life .

Lost all respect for Manny Roach and Arum , all liars and pitiful losers .

[radioraheem]

That will forever be a good one.

Nope he was continually trying to counter with the right hook more so than I've seen him before. Just an excuse, sore loser surrounded by a bunch of morons.
