to be completely honest, i'm really glad its his shoulder and not his wrist. shoulder injuries are countless times easier to rehab than wrist injuries. having said that i'm gonna miss you boxer! thanks for signing my poster!!

It's about time BoxeR got that shoulder fixed.

Good luck and I hope the recovery process doesn't take too long.

If you have watched 'boxers wings' where they mentioned several times what pain boxer was in more than a year ago I understand him. Even if I don´t want him to retire, I thinkhe should do whatever is best for him. He will be a great coach for SlayerS!

the annoying thing is he plays for the fans thats why he doesn't get treatment because he wants to show the fans games

i'd much rather he took a 2 month break and fix it so he can play for years than have to stop in a year and retire

I hope you heal well and fairly quickly Boxer! It must be a tough choice forfeiting the match but it sounds like the right one. Your fans deserve to see you play in full form, as one of them I look forward to future matches.

As a 2nd year Kinesiology student, I understand the problem that progamers have with shoulder injuries, and the one Boxer is having specifically.

Often when people are on the computer, their shoulders are rounded forward and their head is also slightly forward. Over time this causes shortening of the pectoralis (chest muscle) and constant stretching of the trapezius, levator scapulae muscles causing them to be in a state of constant tension.

Rounded shoulders also cause a decreased space between your a part of your shoulder blade called the 'acromion' and the arm which is where the supraspinatus tendon runs through. The problem that arises is more friction on that tendon leading to fraying and eventually tendonitis (inflammation).

I could be wrong and he got into some sort of accident, but for most progamers, this is going to be the main cause of shoulder pain.

Boxer going to therapy a few months after Flash's operation ? This is not a coincidence, they are going to implant Flash cells inside Boxer's body.

Be ready, for when he returns, Boxer will be the Ultimate Emperor !
