Not sure if I should post silly info on shots & shoulders, but I feel compelled to do so.
NSAC chairman Francisco Aguilar told Pugmire, "If the injury was disclosed at the weigh-in, we could've had a conversation and handled it differently. When you come at 6:30 with the fight at 8, that's a different conversation."
According to Greg Logan of Newsday, Aguilar also said that a questionnaire given to Pacquiao and Mayweather before the fight asked about preexisting injuries, and Pacquiao said he had none:
"On that questionnaire, one question is: 'Do you have an injury in your shoulder?' He checked 'No.' Had he checked 'Yes,' our doctors could have followed up with additional questions. He could have shared the MRI with those doctors, and we could have figured out an opportunity for him to have the medication he claimed he needs."
Aguilar told David Mayo of the Grand Rapids Press that the injection could have been approved if Pacquiao's camp had told the NSAC about it earlier:
"These are not prohibited substances. But why they might be, on fight night, by the commission, is you want the fighter to enter the ring in a natural state. Had we known prior to (the fight), we would have sent any (exam results) over to the doctors to review and come up with a treatment plan for Mr. Pacquiao that is acceptable to commission doctors."

So this proves what?
PAC can't read and just signed = poor management, but at that level of the game????
Or
PAC is a liar, and this is why gamblers who believed he was healthy bet a lot of money on him. And are now suing him in a case that will be easy for them to win.
Or
PAC wanted another chance after not doing great and developed a shoulder injury.
Or he wants a re match to make a fat pay day!
He skipped his physical therapy, a really big big thing when you are rehabilitating and injury.
Can any comments relate to this post, focus on what PAC and his team did or did not do right and avoid blaming Floyd, NSAC( unless you have solid evidence) or space aliens?
Aliens could have taken manny aboard a ship and mutilated his shoulder and diminished his amazing boxing skills!
It could happen, after all, the fight did take place in Vegas, not far from area 51. Those ****ing aliens bet a lot and fixed the fight! Just can't trust them.Last edited by Zaroku; 09-02-2015, 04:35 PM.Comment

I think you could be right.
And its not just Wilder and Quillen.
Mayweather has turned the current welters into self-entitled divas, but things may level out when that payday is removed from the table.
Mayweather will be missed. He is the ultimate professional with a near-perfect game. Nobody even comes close.
But the current acceptance of mediocrity from paying fans is the biggest problem. I think they will condone/support the network/promotional divisions that are further fragmenting an already far-too-fragmented sport.
The latest batch of excuses being used to kill/avoid/demean meaningful fights seem to be happily accepted by the majority of boxing fans..... networks/coldwars/catchweights.....the casual fans seem to be lapping that shht up.Comment

He sure put a hole in haters, he reduced them to a joke that nobody cares what they spin, every forum on the net will miss Floyd Mayweather he polarized the sport and was the centre of debate more than any fighter in history .Comment

You mean we won't be able to hear any more arrogant, disgraceful interviews or listen to an inordinate amount of hype and hysteria over what always ends up being dull and predictable touch boxing?
What ever will the boxing world do now that we don't have to see that little canuck cracker, super turd Justin Bieber walking in the ring anymore?
Floyd's reign as the most irritating and boring #1 pound-for-pound boxer of all time is soon coming to an end and I say the sooner the better. Screw Mayweather, his skills don't get my respect. He doesn't respect anyone but himself, has the personality of a shoehorn and is a terrible role model for young athletes. Shame on him.Comment

Yes Bieber is Canadian. I'm also Canadian and am ashamed by his existence. I don't respect Mayweather's skills because he is disrespectful, narcissistic and a horrible person in general and his skills don't translate into exciting boxing. There have been lots of ****y, egotistical boxers in the past but at least they were funny and intelligent (Ali) and fought the toughest competition in their prime (Ali, Robinson, Dempsey, Johnson, Leonard, etc. etc.)
I fully acknowledge that Mayweather is the best defensive counter puncher out there but he has no respect for the game, his opponents or the history of boxing so I don't respect him. Sorry but with his excessive fame and fortune and lack of human decency I don't think Floyd gives a damn that I am yet another boxing fan who isn't a fan of him.Comment

What's funny is that dip$h!ts like you think that may can't be replaced easily and he will be replaced just like hearns,Duran,sugar ray etc.boxing keeps moving so get that through your racist pig headed head of yoursToo funny to read the comments left by imbeciles with no understanding of what Farhood is saying in this article. Talk about how boring Mayweather is and how much he's killing the sport all you want. Tell me this then, who else can sell 4.4 million PPV's. Average 25 asses in the seats per buy, and you have over 100,000,000 people watching a fight. Please tell me who can bring that much exposure to the sport. Or you can just keep tossing out your blanketed racist comments.Comment

Was the question not why I don't respect Mayweather's skills?
You couldn't have actually read any of the rubbish I wrote since I answered that question in depth.
Are you sure you know how to read or are you just pretending to not be an ignoramus like your hero, Drug-Money Mayweather?
Either that is the case or you don't understand what "I don't respect Mayweather's skills because" means.Comment
