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.
About trusting; If it happens once, it can be a mistake or coincidence. If it happens twice 99 times out of 100 it was on purpose. If it happens a third time it was a deliberate act.

What makes the injury more suspect is the fact that many were saying ticket sale were down and it would be a bigger ticket gate and PPV if the fight were held on Sept 19 before the injury occured. Then it just so happened that an unconfirmable injury happens that takes two months for Mayweather to get back on track. Add my eariler post and the fact Mayweather is obviously lying low and one could things sum up.

Yes, his injury is plausible otherwise we'd be hearing a lawsuit coming out of JMM's camp. Proof is a lot harder to come by than supposition.
Actually, the normal reaction to a postposed fight is a complaint by the healthy or ready fighter. Here I am training to reach a peak during fight week only to be told that the fight will be postponed. I would have at least complained or at least expressed my dissapointment to the media. But all we got from the Marquez camp is silence. Why? Even if the injury was legitimate you should have have heard from the Marquez camp. All we got was silence. Why?
