    I'd like nothing more than retirement for them, but we both know it ain't happening.

    But he didn't win fair & square The NSAC sabotaged him Pac should have pulled out injured let Vegas lose its ass. Instead he tried to go on with the aid of legal painkillers which NSAC agreed he could do Then did a 180 fight night that place is corrupt crooked as a corkscrew

    Really doesn't matter either way. Delusion will never find satisfaction. In time, they will let it go. Or, maybe they won't and forever embrace a fantasy in their mind that makes them feel comfortable.

    I think so. I think most people who despise Floyd and dream of seeing him losing would fall for it again as well. I've bought Floyd PPV's throughout the years yet find myself expecting different results(a slugfest) like an insane person.

    Martinez fought with destroyed knees and can barely walk atm
    Margarito fought with a destroyed ocular globe
    Ward beat froch with a broken hand coming into the fight

    just to name a few modern boxer who fought with injuries and still didn't make any excuses.

    Plus a torn rotor would barely allow you to move your arm, pacquiao didn't even look in pain, didn't ask his corner for ice or anything ... sounds fake to me.

    All truth comes out eventually. With all the nonsense over the years with the negotiation of this fight, these guys are making themselves absolutely look like the culprit.

    I admit I am kind of stuck in the middle on this one.

    I mean, on the one hand, I can see what Bob Arum is saying as being true, that they knew Manny had a slight injury since 2008, that kinda went away, or at least got better and didn't seem like an injury anymore. That is a plausible scenario : That it just kinda flaired up in the fight. That's certainly possible, however that doesn't explain the rumors about there being an injury in training.

    My theory is that Pacquiao simply over trained. The way he was throwing lighting fast combinations in sparring, he could have re-aggravated it in training but not exactly injured it. I'm not sure, but when I see those tapes of Manny in sparring I say to myself if there was an injury don't do anything to aggravate it. If you know your right is slightly injured, don't over-do it throwing the right.

    I mean, Manny is a south paw anyway, so it's not like an orthodox fighter who uses his right for power shots. I mean I know Manny uses the right hook, but he could have been very successful by just jabbing with the right and setting up left hooks.

    While I have no reason to think that what Bob is saying isn't true (about it being injured since 2008, but then "going away" - that makes sense) I would still trying to understand why leonard ellerbe said it was a nightmarish camp for Pacquiao. And I am still trying to understand about this Spy and how Floyd was able to know everything about Pac's camp prior to the fight.

    Injury or not, that type of intel, to which Floyd admitted to knowing about "everything" from Pac's camp in that interview posted today on youtube, should concern the NSAC and boxing fans greatly.
