Arum saying he's had the injury since the DLH fight
How convenient that it gets terribly injured in the fourth round of the fight. Even though Pac's punch output increased after the fourth
What's also funny is that he insisted on getting a 7 year old injury worked on directly after the Fight.
No shame
“[This is because] he rested it for a couple of months and it went away,” Arum said about Pacquiao’s injured right rotator cuff to ESPN’s Dan Rafael. “It’s a recurring kind of injury. It can kick up again, which it did in sparring. The doctor said this was the time for him to no longer have to live with that, to repair it and it will be as good as new,” Arum said.
Pacquiao had successful surgery this week on Thursday on his injured right rotator cuff at the Kerlan Jobe Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. The problem now presumably is a thing of the past unless it doesn’t heal properly, or if Pacquiao reinjures it during training.
Arum says that Pacquiao wasn’t having any problems with his shoulder until recently in the training camp for the Mayweather fight.
“They gave him [Pacquiao] a series of treatments that enabled the pain to go away and then when he went into the fight, he was feeling absolutely no pain and using his right arm,” Arum. “It was really sometime in the fourth that he reinjured it.”
I don’t know what Arum and trainer Freddie Roach were thinking about in believing that Pacquao’s shoulder would be okay for the Mayweather fight. As far as I know, you don’t recover from a shoulder injury where you have a bad tear in your rotator cuff by just resting it.
