Manny Pacquiao stands a chance to be Fined or Suspended from Boxing

Manny Pacquiao  who was defeated by Mayweather on Sunday could face disciplinary action from Nevada boxing officials for failing to disclose a shoulder injury before his fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr.Francisco Aguilar  the Chairman of Nevada Athletic Commission disclosed this on 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.


“We will gather all the facts and follow the circumstances,” Aguilar said. “At some point we will have some discussion. As a licensee of the commission you want to make sure fighters are giving you up-to-date information.”If found guilty for not disclosing he had a shoulder injury he 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.

Pacquiao’s trainer, Freddie Roach, said the shoulder was getting better by the day in training camp.

“We thought at one time we’d postpone the fight, but as the weeks went on it was getting better and I was happy with his performance,” Roach said. “I thought the progress was good enough.”
