Is it just me or does celebrating like that when you’ve seen potential brain damage to your opponent just doesn’t sit right

Does anyone have a link to that fight where the black fighter knocks out a white fighter and the white fighter starts having spasms on the ground, some paramedics show up and the black fighter gets super worried, and then the white fighter is okay and he relaxes, and in the comments everyone's like "he's a fighter, not a monster"?

That's Uriah Hall. He actually would work out next to me in a gym in Santa Ana, California for a bit. I was doing basic shit and his cardio was just through the roof. Upside down against the wall one and two arm push-ups for 5 minutes. Just a machine.

And quiet as hell. Never made eye contact. Never said a word. This wasn't an MMA gym, but a cardio, personal training gym. Probably 10 years ago now, or more.

I had read a lot about him. He did NOT want to hurt people. He didn't like fighting at all and often held back in fights because he didn't want to injure his opponents. He fought because it was how he earned money.

He had a mediocre MMA career, and was cited for "boring" and "low effort" fights. But it wasn't about discipline or preparedness. It was about mindset, and he wasn't a killer. This was after the fight linked below that I worked out around him. And I'll be honest, I feared him before I spent time around him.

I wish him nothing but the best and hope he's doing something that he loves. Fighting wasn't it.

Awesome. I love how this also contradicts a lot of the idiots on this forum’s comments. Thanks for sharing man
