Thread: Manny may need surgery

The email I received stated manny had an MRI three weeks ago and it showed a tear in his shoulder. His camp did consider postponing the fight. Says he might have surgery that will keep him out for nine months. Don't know if it's an attempted cover-up. I guess any thing is possible, just reporting what I read.

WOW!!! What a bunch of scumbags Arum, Roach and Manny are to take all these hard working people's money -- $100 PPV and $10000 seats not to mention the money lost on gambling-- Knowingly sending a seriously injured fighter into the ring!

Trainer of the year??! Give me a break!

If this is true someone should sue the fuck out of those bastards!

Manny knew he hurt his arm during training and decided to fight anyway..fighters have been doing that since boxing started..for a 100 mil and perhaps his last fight ,,that was the choice he made in my view

The only guy who needs some medical treatment is Freddie

Yeah, maybe he was planning on taking the anti inflammatory and doing alright. It's on him for submitting too late for approval. Don't know how serious the injury is but if it does require surgery I guess it must be serious. The article mentioned a tear, not specifying where. I would think either tendon or ligament. If this was known before the fight I'm sure the odds would have changed even more.

At what point does it become a fraudulent act to send such a seriously hurt fighter into an event of this magnitude with this much money riding on it?

It's understandable making that choice, I accept that, he's only human and that is a massive amount of money. But once you've made that choice, you CANNOT mention it when you lose. That's when you are open to criticism. That's what is unacceptable. It's no different to David Haye vs Klitschko.

For sure, and I think even David finally came out and admitted that it was nonsense and he was putting everyone on.

the problem is that if it were true, he should have just admitted after the fight that he lost and that he hurt his shoulder rather than saying that he won and then coming up with the hurt shoulder excuse later. either way, even if his shoulder were hurt, he obviously wasnt good enough to adjust his style to make the fight competitive.

Either way Manny does not com!e out good in this, serious injury cancel the fight not serious then make a better effort like he did in round 4.

If anything Manny should've showed the injury during the fight, not mention it after a lack luster showing.

Yes, he should have fought like he did in round 4, the round after he aggravated the injury haha

Latest word is it is coincidentally "inoperable" haha

Just get back in the ring Manny and do your thing.

Maybe Manny should retire if he can't sustain what he did in round 4.

Which shoulder? Just out of curiosity.
