What an absolutely ridiculous potential sentence- possibly going to JAIL and... a $5000 fine...
Also, what the **** do the Nevada commission care. 'Defrauding' viewers etc? If Manny had pulled out of the fight, it would never have been re-made. How many millions did the commission get to licence this fight? Not sure why they're bothered.
Oh and just saw: the NAC overruled a doctor who prescribed the injection, just because they were unaware of the injury. They overruled a DOCTOR adminstering a MEDICINE, and chose to allow have a crocked Pacquiao to fight on, leading to a crap fight, only to then sue him for not declaring it, and thus 'defrauding viewers and gamblers', even though they could have permitted the injection in the first place, potentially allowing for a more competitive fight, who knows. Hahahaha.
In normal circumstances boxers(and many other sportsmen/athletes) use pain reducing gels, pills, injections to perform at a higher level. It is simply not okay to inject every athlete before an event with drugs to help them push that bit harder and further. Aside from being potentially dangerous it is entirely unfair, it is literally a performance enhancing drug, short term rather than long term like steriods(proper steroids, corticosteroids are often used for pain relief/reduction in inflamation).
You need to have a clear medical history of an injury to receive permission to receive such an injection. Turning up before the fight and last minute saying, "hey, I want this drug that will help me perform" when previously lying about being injured is absolutely not ok. Any doctor can be paid(presuming a doctor suggesting it made it ethical or a good suggestion is laughable.... doctors behind most of the steroid scandals to hit sports in the last 30 years) to say someone needs a drug that will help them last second.
Nothing, absolutely nothing prevented Pacman revealing his injury and asking for the injection with notice, nothing except Pacman appears to have intentionally deceived everyone to get him 100mil payment.
His actions in the fight, his comments after the fight and his now excuse making, I've lost almost all respect for him over this one fight.
Pacman, if he is really injured, went out of his way to deceive literally millions of people, for money and is blaming everyone but himself for the performance.
Real injury, disclose it, you think Mayweather didn't want 200million for this fight. A genuine injury that prevent the fighter getting anywhere near his best, it's absolutely up to the boxer to disclose it and not deceive the people paying huge money to watch it. Everyone would have been perfectly happy to see this fight in 6 months or a year. Mayweather would still have wanted this fight. He's spent 5 years building up this fight so he could get 200mil for it, rather than 30-50mil for it 5 years ago, no other fighter would offer the same kind of purse. He would have taken this fight a decade from now if that is what it took.
Potential sentence for defrauding millions of people to the tune of making 100million+, against the billions spent by the viewers, the people paying for tickets 450k front row seats, 10k a seat quite far back, still expensive way at the back, expensive on PPV, the what will be likely billion
s spent in betting on the fight, hotels, flights, etc. No, if you lied and cheated them all... jail would be too harsh for stealing 100million + , sure....
People would have liked to see pacman win but few thought he would. It would have been a different fight if MW hadn't spent 4 years side stepping the fight.
Though I have watched other boxing matches and come to this conclusion. That said it is my personal choice and obviously others may disagree with
