I've had this type problem along with rotator cuff issues for years. But I'm old, so it isn't like I need to completely heal for a fall fight. Loma does need a speedy recovery. Hopefully everything will go smoothly. Sometimes these issues can be tough to heal up from. He will have to follow therapy instructions to the letter, for the best chance in proper healing. Hope it turns out well for him.

Loma is the best fighter since pac n floyd a decade ago and skill wise could be the best since pernel or lenard 30 years ago its early days to compare to greats like them but if he beats tank mikey garcier then moves up to beat thurman spence all maybe top ten p4p fighters be hard not to put him into that category

Personally I think he has holes in his defence and can be hurt, as Linares showed. When people say he is better than Mayweather, that annoys me, because to me, he looks a lot easier to beat. That's my personal explanation as to why I find him and his hardcore fans irritating. He's a top fighter, but all that stuff Arum was saying about him, that was going overboard to me.

Originally posted by McNulty View PostShoulder popping in/out is a very bad injury. If true, he's got torn ligaments and even bluechip orthopedic sports medicine surgeons will tell you that surgery to fix torn ligaments produces more pain more often than not than what you came in with. Pretty much a career ending injury.
Klimas is telling a fib here. If his shoulder came out of the socket, he would have taken a 10 count --- actually more like an 800 count while screaming bloody murder. Also, if his shoulder has a history of coming out of the socket, he would NEVER EVER EVER pull his arms out of the clinch like he did against Rigondeaux and other fighters. Out of socket will bring the biggest of men to their knee's.
For the labrum tear which is a SLAP tear, the surgeon will tell him 8 weeks recovery, but it's really 16 weeks to be pain free and safe. This is all very surgeon dependant and not all surgeons are cut from the same cloth.
SLAP tears are from overuse and by his work ethic, that's probably the case. I highly doubt his shoulder is coming out of the socket. I think people often identify with the words popping out of the socket as pop culture in cinema (Mel Gibson did it a ton in the Lethal Weapon series) has made its it very household.
Also, the headline says indefinitely and the body of text doen't say that at all. Y'all need to fix these dang headlines!
