Max look and sounds like he has CTE :mjcry:


thats bad. Its the camps fault. How does bisbing notice it but the camp didnt? They were hiding it, thats the problem. I think all fighters 7 days before a fight have to live at the compound. You got fukking ferguson kicking metal at 110% 2 days before a title fight. Some of these trainors a bone heads. Lets be honest, these gyms are nobodies that got lucky one of their guys made it. They dont know how to train elite athletes correctly.

He has a dietician, strength and conditioning coach, kickboxing coach, a bjj coach trained by the gracies. He has elite coaches. shyt just happens, its combat sports. You have to spar to stay sharp and sometimes you get caught. The more concerning thing is they didnt catch this sooner. But knowing maxs personality he was telling them he was fine. Sucks i wanted to see this fight more than stipe vs dc.

its not just max. I may be wrong in his case. Although its happened with him a few times. I get its a tough sport but these dudes need to know their limits. Someone knew that tony kicking a metal post was a bad idea so why not stop him? The ortega fight was the only fight i was paying for now ill just look for a stream.

Your comment makes it even worse. He has this glazed over look in his eyes. Regardless I’m glad he was pulled. Kevin Lee shoulda been pulled from his fight also... way too many L’s on Ufc’s plate not enough answers to rectify this type of stuff.

I saw an interview with Firas Zahabi a few weeks ago, and he talked about a similar situation with GSP. I think he said right before his fight with Dan Hardy GSP got caught with a big shot in training, and was visibly concussed.

But he didn’t feel it was his place to pull GSP out of the fight, because he thinks it should ultimately be the fighter’s decision. Most camps probably have that mentality.

Edit here’s the video:
That conversation starts at the 1:55 mark.
