Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Jr: Pacquiao's Mistake Was Blaming Injury

[marcogman]

Pretty much say its a legit injury.

The fact that Roy knows it was an injury before stepping in the ring. Tells us Pac wasn't fighting at full strength. He really was nursing a shoulder pain throughout the fight.

To some, Pac should have postponed the fight. The thing is 5 years he has been chasing Floyd and to give Floyd an out or a excuse for this fight not to happen wasn't an option Pac is willing to take.

And besides, 3 weeks before he was diagnosed with severe rotator cuff tear, the doctor advised surgery. So if he was to under go surgery, he will have to postpone a Floyd fight for at least 1 year. I don't think boxing fans will like that much wait when it's been 5 years of struggle already. It's not like it was a 1 or 2 month postponement. Surgery was needed. It will take a year. Pac was left to manup with all the circumstances that was in front of him.

The world was watching. Tickets were sold, celebrity booked there flights. Networks from around the world have close the deals for satellite coverage. There was no one stopping this train. Pac had no choice but to manup.

Roy was disappointed coz the viewers purchased a product that they expected to be @ 100%. That is understandable.

This only shows FLoyd won against a handicapped Pac who was @ the most 50% of his capability knowing his rotator cuff injury on his right shoulder prevented pac from using his right hand effectively.. Not to mention the unprecedented 13x blood drawn in a span of 2 months. While an average olympianis tested 3x in a year pac had to be blood drawn 13x in a window of 2 months. Red flag. Nsac, confiscating his vitamins and water before the fight, when obviously there was ped testing already and cheating wont happen with usada testing in place. Pac wasnt treated right. Pac was being treated unjustly and he felt like speaking up.. I can understand were he was coming from.

But in all this drama he still showed how great he was. He handled Floyd with one hand and to many people saw him winning. That's atg material right there.

Well said!

at first I hated it but I seems to be working ok (except the lawsuits) for pac for the ****ty performance he gave, people seem to be understanding it now in his favor.

NSAC did pac wrong though, why deny pac the similar medicine (numbing agents) Floyd has been allowed to use all his carreer? ****ty bastards

Lots of pressure on the NSAC, to favor the House Fighter...

They came thru, and saved the Nevada Sports Books, about $60 Million...

Pac couldn't drink his own bottled water, or take his Vitamins; taking the Legal Meds, might have Leveled the Playing Field too!!!

Question is, Who's pulling the NAC's Strings???

Be fair Roy Jones Jr., after the fight, boxing fans still appreciated Pacman's performance, while they booed Floyd Jr. before the fight, Floyd Jr never said that he's gonna fight with dirty tactics, but, he did fight with dirty tactics! he run like scared, he knew the injury of Pacman hence, he hit it and hold it! didn't you see how the referee warned him?(low blows and elbowing)

[doom_specialist]

if bradley never brought up an injury no would would have thought it existed, ligament damage to both ankles in the first fight and in the second fight he suffered a substantial tear of his calf in rd 1

and floyd is a diva, maidana bit his hand and apparently it went numb and he couldn't use it for afterwards, if he has any pain he'll let you know right away, everytime he hurts his hands he'll start shaking it "ouchy, hurt my hand, see everyone, hurt my hand", go to the corner, "guys i hurt my hand, my shoulder hurt, i got butted, i can't see"

with that said i dont think it was that bad as he was surely coming into the ring feeling very good, watching it live i thought his flurry in the 4th got flurry halfway, on rewatch it does look like some pain shot up at him when he threw the right to the body

This is the part where I'm supposed to act like you didn't criticize a fighter for being BITTEN in a BOXING MATCH, and didn't criticize the fighter who bit him.

Hate Mayweather all you like, but don't bring up bogus examples like that.

The conspiracy theorists in this thread are ridiculous. So Floyd bought off pretty much everyone? The ref, the judges, nsac, usada, the compubox guys, the commentators?

Im surprised Floyd had any money left after all he had to pay out.

Is his water different from other water? He said he didn't take vitamins on the medical form, another lie.
