All Pac seen was dollar signs, he could've had two broken legs, he still would've walk into that ring that night.

Lampley turned on him before the fight, that much was clear in his commentary on the night. I think he figures he can get some personal mileage out of it.

No he didnt turn on before the fight

There was a vocal crowd questioning the decision to have to Lampley call the fight, because hes been openly critical of Mayweather, and its obvious he was told to tone it down for that reason, and thats all that was

When it rains it pours. The empire is crumbling.

If he said that, he was lying (again) because one of his sparring patner said they had to go home weeks before the fight.

Are you really this dense? Of course they're going act like they're going to win the fight, even if if they're lying to themselves. You cannot let doubt creep into your mind, nor do you let your opponent know that you've got a bum shoulder.

And now we are at, where we at, with Manny still looks like a complete JACK ASS.

[RawDawgHasSpokn]

I want to see if he will be as critical of Manny on the next episode of The Fight Game. The is a major sign though.

[Robbie Barrett]

So people are now saying Lampley is a Mayweather fan? WTF

What happened to Evol? I had a few debates with him on here and haven't seen him since. How about check hooks? lol these dudes where over the top. It is sad everything is coming full circle. I thought I would cherish this day. But fighters have heart for stepping into the ring so respect to them.

But the way the media painted Pac and painted Floyd made me want to see Pac lose. I for one always respected the way Pac seemed to carry himself but he hasn't thanked God, gave Floyd any credit. He was way more humble in the: Bradley, Marquez lost.

He must have believed the hype that Floyd was really scared and can't accept that he lost.

He did thank God in the post presser, and on social media. . . I think during the Bradley fight people knew it was a robbery, so need for Pac to be salty.

yeah I am a huge pac fan but man iam just pissed with him that he fought the fight injured dumb move ****** and ripped off us all , btw ive had rotater cuff surgery it took 12+ months to get movement back and its never came back to 100% and before the operation I couldn't even lift that arm above shoulder height so I question how bad it really was because he looked to have full movement in the fight just a lack of punch output.

Regardless of Pacquiao getting painkiller shots, a rotator cuff injury is serious and limiting for a fighter. The shoulder is a unique joint, it is not held together by ligaments, but it is held with the ball in the socket by the rotator cuff muscles and tendons that act like marionette strings pulling the ball up into the socket. The rotator cuff is made up of four muscles: Supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis. If the rotator cuff muscles are loose or torn, motion is not efficient at the joint and is painful because other muscles get pinched with everything in motion. In order to decrease pain during rehabilitation, physicians prescribe motion no higher than parallel to the floor. Anything higher causes more pinching and more pain.
