Just training at an amateur level we have people getting hurt all the time, I don't see why it isn't plausible that Mayweather was legitimately hurt, and I also peg him as the type of guy who wouldn't come into the ring with a disadvantage in training, especially not in a relatively large fight like this where he could potentially get humiliated.

Also he bruised the cartillege in his ribs, that is something that can be verified, and can be very painful. Rib injuries aren't like hand injuries, you can't rotate your body, you can't breathe properly, core injuries affect your performance a lot more.

How many times have we seen Mayweather postpone? To my knowledge there are no times that he has postponed, but he is coming back from retirement which is often when you get injured, is getting back into the game, How is Marquez an easy return fight after 2 years? He's the second best fighter on the planet unless you include Mayweather. He's fast, accurate, tough, and he's been taking out guys with good chins. More than that he deals with speed well if his fights with Manny are any indication.
