Yea this is what I dont understand. He says he neer has a street fight and he never will he always avoids them. But at the press conferences w/ Mayorga Oscar acted like he was about to fight him right there and went after him, but i thought he never gets in fist fights. Can you say staged?
I dont believe that it was staged. When a guy is gearing up to fight another and then you find him infront of your face things can get really intense. I never fight outside of the ring, I feel it would disgrace my honor if I was to do so. However, there have been situations where a guy I was to fight the next night starts up, Im ready to go at that moment or the next night. Whichever, it didnt seem to matter. Because the adrenaline begins to pump as soon as you see him. Then to have Mayorga slap Oscar upside his head.... Game on!!!!! It was not staged.
