    Pacquiao reportedly suffered a detached retina during Broner fight.

    Pacquiao was reportedly complaining about pain and vision loss in his left eye. One source said, “He told me it was like covering one eye with his hand.’’

    He's apparently scheduled to fly home to the Philippines on Monday to be examined by an eye specialist. According to the first camp source, the fear is that Pacquiao may have suffered a detached retina, an injury that would likely derail a proposed July rematch with Mayweather and could potentially end his career.

    Another camp member told the Daily News the injury was relatively minor, a corneal scratch from the tape on one of Broner’s gloves, an injury Pacquiao has suffered in previous fights.

    If Pacquiao is cleared to fight again, will his team let him fight guys like Spence, Thurman, Porter, or the Garcias (Danny & Mikey), if Broner was able to detach his retina?

    Manny Pacquiao had a big night on Saturday, easily defeating Adrien Broner in a 12-round decision at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas that he hoped would lead him to a rematch with Floyd Mayweathe…

      Seems that way if he suffers any injury like this during a dominate win.

        Pacquiao needs to retire, man. Hate to see an old legend eventually get KTFO at the end of their career.

        This is not good. Needs to stay far away from Spence/Thurman/Crawford/Porter.

          Eventually they all get knocked out if they stay in there too long. Sometimes its the only language they understand because their ego will not let them hear anything else. I think if Hopkins had not been knocked out of the ring he would still be fighting right now.

          Boxing is cruel, Pacquiao will be fed to Spence soon to give Spence a bigger name by knocking out a legend.

                Thread title is misleading. It’s a corneal scratch, not a detached retina. These haters looking for any excuse to shyt on Manny.

                    Sugar Ray Leonard suffered a detached retina and his final fight ended at age 40 with him getting knocked out by Hector Camacho. Pacquiao may refuse to retire and he could suffer the same fate.
