Comments Thread For: Atlas on Pacquiao's Injury: Nobody Wants To Hear It!

I was going for Floyd you fawking moron

I never asked and I don't care. Carry on.

This was why they ducked this fight 5 years ago, a loss for Manny then would have seen his earning potential dropped like a bomb, now he is on the verge of retirement so the damage is minimal.

Bob Arum is not ******... the casuals and pac fans alike see this now.

Nobody wants to hear you ever Teddy, you're a guy who has said Pacquiao was on PEDs for years then you curse him with your pick. Begone!

Actually , many (myself included) admire Atlas because he doesn't display none of the usual race-based critique's of boxers that most fans and many commentators do . He's what u call , honest to a fault whether he's right or wrong . His accusation of Manny using PEDS was simply in line with him ALWAYS speaking what he feels and ALWAYS lashing out at what he sees as corruption in the sport . To most (Except Manny Fans) it was fairly obvious that Manny was juicing , being 2 inches shy of a midget all while punching like Mike Tyson is virtually impossible . I not only accused him of juicing , but loading his gloves at the same time .

What Pac and Guerrero did was blasphemy if you are a Christian you shouldn't do that and force God to pick sides.

Right there - that is what sums it up and both Guerrero and Pac embarrassed themselves trying to make it about good vs bad, right vs wrong. That sht does not sit well with me. That's not what spirituality is about and sports is not the venue for deciding who should win and lose based on what one person thinks is good or bad. Spiritual wars don't belong in sports and only trivialize what spirituality is all about.

chuckguy, its hard not to believe a resounding loss like this is why Manny walked away from the fight years ago.

Best case is Bob knew and wanted to make a ton so he let it marinate and convinced Manny to follow the plan.

I mean, would Manny have earned as much over the past 5 years with this performance on his resume?

After watching two past prime HOF fighters go at it on Saturday I'm convinced that Floyd would have beaten manny no matter when they fought. Floyd is just on another level. But to blame manny from walking away from the fight is bullsh it! Why doesn't that poosey Wess. Bring up the fact that Floyd demanded
Testing when he had never done that before so IMO and manny others Floyd ducked PAC first not the other way around. Let's not forget that at that time this was a 50/50 fight when it came to purses.
I'm glad the fight is over and I'm glad Floyd won because I wanted him to win. But some of the crap coming from his fanboys is just riduculous.

If Pacquaio truly does have a torn rotator cuff as they claim, he would need surgery and would be out for at least the rest of the year. However, I would bet that Pacquaio will fight again in October or November....and not a word will be said about the alleged shoulder injury.

Since when was religion spiritual? Its more like believe what we tell you.

Did you tell Floyd not to make excuses, when he claimed he done his hand in when he got a controversial decision to Castillo.

Pac thinks he beat Floyd. He didn't say he lost because of the shoulder just said he couldn't do what he wanted.

What has been so ridiculous? People seem to not be buying pac's excuses . Thats ridiculous ?

This was a ploy to get a rematch...they cooked up this injury crap well in advance...that's why they knew nOT to disclose that injury on Friday which have allowed Manny to get a injection on Saturday if the injury was legit they would've had to show proof of the injury...and if Mayweather already knew about it there was no reason not to disclose it Friday...smh

Exactly they knew if they lost, they was going to bring up the injury to force a rematch
