Granted, I am not a professional fighter, but if I were beaten on camera in front of the world, I would face reality. I lost. I got caught. I can improve, get better, avoid it next time. What I cannot, or should not do, is make up excuses to escape reality....
God damn fighters need to just accept their losses... bad knees, injured ribs, lack of motivation, whatever, if you are cleared to fight, then I don't want to hear it. I feel like 2/3 of superstar fighters just make up shit to not lose face in front of the fans, even though we know what happened in the Octagon...
