Oscar tells ESPN: "I felt more pains in the Mayorga training camp than any other training camp ever."

The details of his problems (As listed by ESPN):

• "I've lived with it with for the last 4-5 years. When I sleep at night, to this day, I wake up and it's uncomfortable. It hurts. It's in pain."

"My hand. I am tired of getting shots on my [left] hand to numb it so I won't feel the pain. I'm tired of it."

It sucks. It really does.

"My back flares up."

"This still hasn't gone down since the Mayorga fight. I'm thinking it's broken. I touch it and it hurts. It's been like this for two months, since the middle of training camp."
Seems Oscar misses the home life
