Absolutely no evidence of anything whatsoever to show she quit due to a mental health issue.
She let her team down.
She cost someone else a spot in the Olympics games
Completely selfish.
If she had such a severe issue before the games then she should have been stopped from going.
How come this has never materialised when she was winning?
how the fuck do you know it didn't materialize before? maybe now it is just a culmination, it got too much for her to handle?
Maybe she didn't want to compete, but made the effort because the team needed her and asked her to try.
Maybe she quit in order not to hurt the team, because she would bring them down.
Again, you have absolutely no fucking idea. don't judge what you don't know.
Let me put it this way: If you like MMA, you know that no MMA fighter ever come to fight 100% healthy.
If you EVER competed for anything, you know there's always pressure.
And she won enough over a huge span of years for us to KNOW she fought adversity and pressure before and thrived.
I don't know if she is a hero, but I am sure she is not quitter or a bad role model.
I don't mean to be rude, but don't be an idiot, judging someone you don't know over circumstances you have no clue about.
Thing about her background and history, and you will see that there's no reason for you to attack her.
Maybe the news, who are trying to portrait her as a hero (or maybe they do have the scope that you lack?).
But attacking her is just wrong until you learn what happened.
