What a warrior. Wow.

This has been the most life-affirming thing for me, to know you're valued and then show your resolve to not just curl up and die,

Still gives me goosebumps watching this. Incredible fight, incredible warrior.

Yeah, its a line that even Nazim Richardson couldn’t quite rival, although ‘swim without getting wet’ to Mosley vs Margarito was pretty good as well

Then Corrales gets the finish, craziest shit I have ever seen. I have seen it a million times and it always gets me

EPIC….
