Manny Pacquiao boxed against Floyd Mayweather with an injured right shoulder.
Now accusing Pacquiao Nevada’s sports federation of sabotage, when Manny is not allowed to take fully permitted painkillers before the fight.
– It is legal, we became vulnerable to sabotage, says Pacquiao.
While it is clear that he is going to operate the axis and may be gone for a year.
Early Sunday morning lost Manny Pacquiao century boxing match against Floyd Mayweather.
After the match Pacquiao explained that he joined the game injured. Three weeks before the match he suffered a shoulder injury during a workout.
Doctors urged him to rest the shoulder in a month, but Pacquiao chose to take anti-inflammatory injections and go match against Mayweather.
– I did not want to make the fans who waited so long for the game disappointed, he says according to boxingscene.com.
“As a needle in the leg”
Now accusing Pacquiao Nevada sports federations, NSAC, sabotage. PHILIPPINES mean that he got the syringes approved by the union before the game and they were completely legal. Despite this, he was denied from taking it before the game.
NSAC’s chairman Francisco Aguilar turns off the criticism. He says that the union was well aware and Pacquiaos syringes, but no damage was mentioned during either weigh or medical check before the game.
Pacquiao himself does not buy the explanation when the news of his injury was leaked three weeks before the game.
He also considered that Mayweather knew about his injury and attempted to take advantage of it during the match.
– Did you see how he pulled my arm? He did. It felt like there was pricked a needle right into my bones. I had really needed the injection. Every time I made a power hook or power jab, it hurt, says Pacquiao.
Can punished
Meanwhile, reports news agency AP that Pacquiao can be punished for not talked about his injury before game.
State Attorney in Nevada will examine why Pacquiao darkened his injury, and that the boxing federation in Nevada can punish him.
If Pacquiao would be punished, it would most likely involve a fine or suspension.
– Sooner or later, we need to have a discussion. We must be able to know that the boxers will correct information to us, says Francisco Aguilar.
When Pacquiao was asked if he was injured at the weigh-in, he replied simply: “No”.
Before the match approached Pacquiaos team, the US Anti-Doping Agency, which in turn approved the boxer took antinflammatoriska injections before the game. But Pacquiao chose to dark injury to the NSAC.
