Surprisingly, many fans and media turned against Max Rohskopf for refusing to continue to fight Austin Hubbard. Suddenly, many people thought that the fighter had to go out there when he didn’t have any energy, when he sustained lots of damage and there’s a chance only for a miracle. The corner should have stopped the fight by the end of round two already, as it was getting into a one-way road.
Fighters are not cannon fodder for the audience’s delight; they are athletes that compete and you shouldn’t pour so much hatred on the person who tested the waters and took a wise step back to have the opportunity to take two steps forward. Don’t forget that Max had only a week to prepare for the debut in the best global league and he’s still gaining experience in MMA; and he looked good in the first round but then his fuel ended. So, there is the potential for better results. Let’s support him. Chin up, Max.
And if you keep hating him, Shaq on you!👻
