Everyone knows Floyd was an injured fighter for a while, which is why he took so much time off. He either went into a fight injured or got injured during fights. He was never 100% from the early 2000s to retirement.

It just goes to show that if you haven't been in those shoes, you don't know how they fit
That's in regards to the non-athletes on this site.....athletes have to deal with this stuff for the rest of their lives. Imagine making it to his level and the trauma put on his body.....PAAAAAIN!!!
I was never on Floyd's level, not even close. Can't imagine the pain he suffers. We all break, but at different points in our bodies. Had an AC joint injury, shoulder, took about 8 months to rehabilitate. It felt like my shoulder was sliding off my body.
I can see why Floyd stopped going balls out for the knockouts. Just enough power to discourage his opponents, and box box box.

Originally posted by therealpugilist View Postlooked fake.....no shoulder rub during the fight, no complaining or wincing from pain.....Now if you want to see a fighter fight through a real shoulder injurt, go watch Berto vs Soto Karass.....there was no need to debate his....why is there a debate about Manny's? Because all of the shady variables. Didn't sign on the dotted line before the fight....selfies before entrance and post fight interview, he said nothing about his shoulder, just that he couldn't get off because of Mayweather's movement

Floyd's hands are the real reason he is calling it quits. I remember someone mentioning it but I can't remember who.

Bro you are not supposed to be swimming or lifting anything over your head after shoulder surgery on a torn rotator cuff....this guy was doing that stuff less than 3 months from his supposed surgery
I had a left shoulder strain a year ago and couldn't hit my heavy bag for two months...on doctors orders....yet he was playing basketball and swimming after surgery.....yea friggin right...I couldn't even lift my arm past shoulder level without pain shooting through my arm or lift my groceries with a little help for several months
That injury was a lame excuse for an uninspired performance to pay the IRS back and save face
