Comments Thread For: Photos: Pacquiao's MRI Looks Good, Shoulder is Ready

Pac should fight once or twice and ride out into the sunset let the young guys shine. This saga is over between floyd and manny.

Also, people need to get off the "if Manny had an injury then why did he check 'no' before the fight in the medical questionnaire?" Seriously?

I had already a severe tear in my left shoulder that been that condition for two years, four months & four days when I went to go for my motorcycle license completing a three day course and the instructors asked us if we had any health issues that needed to be addressed to let them know and of course I was not going to admit due to the fear of them having a legal responsibility to not let me participate in the program. And obviously having to have my arm extended and my bad arm having to use the clutch absolutely affected me, but I really wanted to get a motorcycle license (which I did by passing the written and road tests).

So if I was going to be involved in a mega fight that I had wanted for six years and was going to make more money than I ever had (by a significant margin) before in my career, you're damn right I'm checking "no". I do not blame him for doing that whatsoever.

P.S. I didn't get that shoulder operated on until 8 months and 27 days later from the start of the motorcycle course (making it a total of 3 years, 2 months and 1 week before I was operated on). So if anyone ever has to go in for a labrum repair in their shoulder shoot me a message and I'll be glad to answer questions, etc.

You didn't throw several thousand punches (including training and sparring) and over 200 punches in a fight with your injured arm and then raise in it victory after the fight.

I had surgery for a torn rotator cuff. I had to stop lifting weights months before my surgery because of the discomfort and pain in my shoulder. I know what it is like to walk around with an injury like that, and I can say with confidence that there is no way in hell Pacquaio had an injured shoulder in that fight and no way in hell he had surgery on that shoulder and then achieved a full recovery in three months. Even with physical therapy (which he says he never had), it still would have taken four to five months of rehab before he could gain full motion in that shoulder and he still wouldn't be completely healed.

Wow actually proof.

Now that's revealing. So his injury is true.

So does this mean, a one armed Pac who fought a roided up Floyd was able to press floyd to run and hug for 12 rounds and made Floyd have his least punch output of his whole career that he basically fought ***** against a one armed man did happen.

Legendary!

If it was 2 healthy arms that night. That would have been a scary thought.

Pictures of a visit to a doctor don't prove a damn thing. A claim by the fighter that he is completely healed doesn't mean a damn thing. We still have no pictures of an MRI and no evidence of him having rotator cuff surgery.

If Pacquiao truly had rotator cuff surgery, there should be several scars on his deltoid muscle from the surgery. I know this because I had rotator cuff surgery. I didn't see any pictures of an MRI or any pictures of his shoulder with surgical scars, and I am sure we won't see any surgical scars on him when he fights his next opponent.

I am sure you and others will say that the surgical scars disappeared when he swam in salt water and was miraculously healed or that he received some new age surgery that left no scars. However, the truth is that we will see no surgical scars because he never had surgery due to the fact that he never had an injury.

Did Pacquiao? I remember alot of days off. And just because your bum ass couldn't lift your arm doesn't mean anyone else couldn't, and yet again it goes back to idiots thinking every injury is comparable.

"Man I got shot in the head and died straight away, no way that guy actually got shot in the head!"

Bryant was also fine moving his arm before surgery and carried the injury for years and years as it got worse and worse. Within 5 months Kobe said how his shoulder was fine besides a little pain, he said he had full mobility and good strength, he was kept benched by the experts for safety reasons.

It's about a week out from 5 months for Pacquiao. His doctor predicted about six months before full recovery and then another couple to build the strength back up.

^^^^^^^^....this injury crap was a complete joke.....I had a strain in my teres minor and deltoid connected to my rotator cuff and even with rehab from November to February it still wasn't fully recovered. I could go to work but my Dr suggested that I don't hit my heavy bag or speed bag for a few weeks, which I started back in March....

I winced everytime I lifted my arms past parallel to the ground and Manny fought with a "Tear" and he was taking selfies before the fight, throwing punches during it, and raising his hand after it without any sign of discomfort....yea freaking right!!!!

yeah. I had a torn rotator cuff too, but I just let it heal naturally over 2 months. The 1st month was unreal, or rather, I had never had an injury like it. I was intoxicated one night and I fell onto the cement with my palm hitting the ground and saving my fall. The next night I was in pain. I guess the hangover helped the pain a bit. Anyhow, for a month straight it always felt the same. Usually lifting something. I have a jack russell and I have to carry him up a flight of 5 floors all the time. I had to use my left arm. Anyhow. I severe rotator I have no idea. The doctor told me I had torn rotator cuff but not severe. I have scar tissue there, but oh well.

The thing is leading up to the May bout, Pacman was showing off crazy in workouts with crazy fast combos...there's no way anyone could pull that off.

Check out this video. Let me know if it's funny, and if the injury makes sense.

[No Tomorrow]

Of course...and by disclosing an injury on a waiver...you'd also have to prove the injury. =)

Whichever way people view this paradox and the endless excuse from Top Rank and Roach over the years... trust me, I believe Salt Water cures severaly torn rotator cuffs!

Again . . Too much money to be left on the table. I'm sure it was a nagging injury that was being downplayed and got significantly worse in the fight

Again, you have your opinion, and others can form their common sense scenarios as well.

At least when Prince Naseem lost to Barrera he gave him credit for it, regardless of the fact that his hands gave up throughout his career, or so he said. Nonetheless, he didn't make an excuse for his loss.

Take it as you will. Top Rank..

Eight division world champion Manny Pacquiao posted several photos on the social networks of his morning visit to the doctor to have an MRI on his injured right shoulder. The boxer, who claims the right shoulder is fully healed, was told by the doctors that his shoulder looks good and he appears to be one step closer to being fully cleared for an early 2016 ring return.
