CMM. It depends. How close is the source and how much do you trust him.

I've recently had a situation very similar to this. But I'm keeping quiet on the details. If x, y & z only know something and word gets round. It wouldn't take long to realise who let it slip.

The point I made is, boxing is a funny sport and at times very unfair because unlike other sports for example football. If a guy doesn't get selected or limps off the field and annouces he has pulled a hamstring. Everyone doesn't jump up and call him a liar and he's making excuses for a poor performance. Well, most of the time they don't

In boxing the reverse is true. They're making excuses, they're a bad loser. If a boxer or a camp gives the slightest hint of injury no one believes them. Perhaps it has to do with the macho nature of the sport? These guys are good but they're not supermen, they will and do get hurt and I'm positive many enter the ring not 100% fit and injury free.
