True that. People continue to show heart but you didn't.

By trade I am a chemical process operator at a globally owned level 1 chemical facility (the same class as a nuclear powerplant).

I accepted the job knowing the level of training and responsibility I would have to endure. Just like you.

I have been in this profession for a little over 10 years and have advanced to the highest level an hourly employee can, just like you had advanced to the highest organization a fighter can at this point.

I recently made a high profile mistake that was known throughout the company and the local community.

I guess the point is that shit happenes. The character of a person is measured by how they react to adverse situations. When I made my mistake I manned up and immediately informed my coworkers and supervisors. I also helped form the solution of the problem. It was my responsibility to make sure a release of this nature never happens again.

It is your job to fight any man your employers put in front of you AND provide the paying audience with your best possible effort. I felt ashamed for you and the UFC after watching your fight with Nate Quarry. This was a fight you accepted and you were a willing participant in.

If you had fought and lost by highlight reel KO the perception would have been that you gave it your best and got beat by the better man that night. You chose to run, hide, and avoid the better man that night and you are paying and will continue to pay the price for that action for a long time.

It's time to man up to your friends, family, and fans as to why you did what you did. In the coming years I can guarantee you would have rather gone to sleep than given the performance and the excuses offered.

LOL. Just LOL.

Maybe, but not many people can take a punch like Wang.
