Exactly.

His shoulder can't have been that badly Injured because he was throwing the right hook and has been in all the training videos.

depends on the injury, if he tore his rotator's cuff he's pretty much done as a pro. my father has two torn rotator's cuffs that he's had operated on and even post-procedure the surgeon told him he won't have full mobility in either one. granted he had the first shoulder operated on at 40 years old, the 2nd one he was in his 50's, both times they told him his shoulders are pretty much ****ed

even in baseball, pitchers w/ elbow problems can usually come back semi-effective, shoulders...not so much.

if pacquiao has a torn rotator's, he's done

You've just basically stated that that isn't the case.

How can that be the case of he could throw right hooks?

you can throw punches, or do whatever you want. it's not like tearing a muscle somehow physically prevents you from moving your arm. it just hurts like a mother****er.

i havent watched the fight a 2nd time, so i dunno if he stopped using his right arm after the 4th round, or used it a lot less. i mean isn't it proven he has medical documents showing he was getting cortizone shots or w/e before the fight? i'm sure those can be fact-checked. are you saying he's lying about the injury?

it's a simple response, don't need a long essay. just say whether or not you think he's lying about it

when the dr told my dad he won't have full mobility, he meant without pain. that's usually what that means.

my dad shoots a lot of pool, and he's right handed (his worse shoulder is his left), so extending his left arm isn't necessarily an issue for him, but he gets cortizone shots every 6 months but he still has a lot of pain

again, you can move your arm, it just hurts a lot

Pac is not giving EXCUSES. He is giving REASONS why he didn't perform his best. Even so, he still felt he could beat Floyd, but in the heat of battle, that is when you know how hindered you really are.

EXCUSES are not valid. REASONS are valid.

The only person making EXCUSES is Floyd, why he don't want to fight a 100% Pac and give a rematch. Floyd is kidding himself if he doesn't believe the injury. No one seriously doubts it.

if pac tore his shoulder, he's probably done, that's not an injury you really come back from. there's a chance it was a very very minor tear but at 36 years old, even those are difficult.

i dont wanna sound like a know it all because i'm not, we need to know how legit the injury is, and then know exactly the severity of it

if A is true and B is severe, it pisses me off that he went through w/ the fight

Biggest fight of your life and you don't speak up or postpone it even with an injury? Hell even Floyd had sense enough to postpone the Marquez fight due to injury and that fight wasn't even this important. Horrible move by Pac's team.

That is why Floyd could postpone the Marquez fight because it was not that important.

Pac has been hitting hard all his life and has had a long career so im not surprised he injured his shoulders and has wear and tear.

But a rematch is warranted when there is controversy.

But you are making excuses and its very embarrassing with the **** you were saying before the fight.

If you're going into a fight, you are not going to let the other guy find out you have an injury. You might as well give them your game plan.
