Related: About this forumPacquiao could face disciplinary action for shoulder
http://my.xfinity.com/articles/sports-boxing/20150503/Mayweather-Pacquiao/Manny Pacquiao could face disciplinary action from Nevada boxing officials for failing to disclose a shoulder injury before his fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Nevada Athletic Commission chairman Francisco Aguilar said Monday that the state attorney general's office will look at why Pacquiao checked ''no'' a day before the fight on a commission questionnaire asking if he had a shoulder injury....
Pacquiao could face a possible fine or suspension for not answering the question accurately on a form he filled out just before Friday's weigh-in. He would go on to lose a unanimous decision to Mayweather in the richest fight ever.
Meanwhile, orthopedic surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache told ESPN.com that Pacquiao will undergo surgery later this week to repair a ''significant tear'' in his rotator cuff. ElAttrache examined Pacquiao on Monday at his Kerlan Jobe Orthopedics office in Los Angeles.

Can you imagine how many lawsuits would have been filed if the fight had been canceled or postponed?????
What if he broke his leg? Or Arm? Lawsuits over that?

People file lawsuits all the time and oevr anything...the crux of most would be that the injury wasn't real, and they'd make Manny prove it...we are a litgitious society.
It wouldn't go anywhere now would it?
