People who don't fight and have never trained in fighting saying, of a knockout/down, "that shouldn't have knocked him down. Clearly a dive. This sport is so corrupt." I always want to invite them to take the shot they're dismissing on their own body and then say whether it was legit.
I've recently heard people arguing this about this:
Conor McGregor knocking down half man, half fainting goat Dustin Poirier.
This:
Mike Tyson tapping Clifford Etienne on the jaw to signal that it is time for him to take a dive.
And fucking
This! If you don't like violence, I would advise just taking my word on this last one. It's a bit grisly.Mark Hunt's theatrical debut as "man getting concussed" in the live stage play
Junior Dos Santos concusses a man.I'm not naive. I know fixes do happen, but please for fuck's sake; if you aren't a fighter, don't go lecturing people on how "there's
no way he should have been knocked out." You don't know what you're talking about. You just sound like a dickhead.
"Tusser, they tell me, when thou wert alive,
Thou, teaching thrift, thyselfe couldst never thrive.
So, like the whetstone, many men are wont
To sharpen others, when themselves are blunt."
Anyone who has any kind of opinion fucking disgusts me.
