With no prior reporting of an injury and a medical form where Pacquiao, himself, indicated that he had no shoulder (or any other) injuries, there was simply not enough time to investigate and properly decide whether to allow an injection before this high-stakes bout.
But why would Team Pacquiao be pursuing an injection if, per their new “official” story, the shoulder was fine as of the day of the fight?
Petrocelli admits that doctors examined Pacquiao prior to the fight and gave him the thumbs up to go ahead.
One theory is that the medication in that injection may have something to do with Team Pacquiao’s pursuit of the shot.
According to all published accounts,
Team Pacquiao requested an injection of Toradol, a powerful anti-inflammatory, for the fighter about two hours before the bout.
Toradol is a legitimate, USADA-approved anti-inflammatory used on patients suffering acute pain from either injury or the post-surgery recovery process.
There are many legitimate reasons to use
But there are also many illegitimate uses for this product.
It’s the sporting world’s worst kept secret that Toradol has been widely used as somewhat of a legalized cheat or substitute “pep pill” for otherwise healthy players looking to be temporarily rejuvenated for the game. In a legitimately injured athlete Toradol completely masks the effects of that injury, allowing the player to perform as if nothing were wrong. In an athlete not suffering from a debilitating injury, however, it turns him into what could be described as a virtually indestructible force.
The NFL has especially leaned on the use of Toradol, with teams reportedly issuing across the board pre-game injections for their players, injured or not. This dangerous practice has been mentioned in several lawsuits against the NFL from ex-players concerned with the league’s lack of safety precautions.
Toradol, aside from reinvigorating the body, also masks the effects of cramps and, more importantly, wipes clean the symptoms of a concussion. Under the effect of Toradol, an athlete could be seriously injured and dangerously concussed without even knowing it until much later.
“…
End the toradol shots...before the game,” said former NFL quarterback Chris Simms. “[it's] basically a super strong pain killer that makes your body numb. You could go run through the wall and you wouldn't really know it until two or three days later.”
Just to sum it up
-pacquaio said in his own writing that he had no shoulder Injury
- 2 hours before the fight he suddenly has a surgery injury and wants to take a shot of something that can Enhance his performance drastically if he's lying
3. Withou knowing if he's actually injured (he just said less than 24 hours ago that he wasn't) he is denied the shot
4.pacquauo goes on to fight mayweather without showing any sign of shoulder pain in the ring, or in the corner. He voluntarily raises both his hands after the fight
If pacquaio had a legit injury even asking the day before probably would got him his little enhancement shot. But I'm sure they would have a doctor check him out first... Something they clearly wanted to avoid cause they were bullshytting.
They wanted to throw it out there during the damn undercard to either get an advantage or have a built in excuse
Simple as that
