I don't care what they say about me anyway, I've helped turn "fighter bashing" into an art form. If you're creative and it's funny I laugh too, believe me, it's the barely literate, "You shit-fuck, asshole, coward fuckstick, me think you make excuse too much, me pay money see punch face, then you no punch face, fuck monkey shit brain, me kill you" type of guys who they react to, not the people who make it funny. Okay my rant was kind of funny, but you get the idea.
This was a cool post. No hate from me (from now on). So the fight wasnt good. Life goes on. A fighter with a sense of humor is alright in my book. You're no Mayhem, but some of those lines had me lol'ing.

So guys, I have a dilemma. I'm at work and my client is getting his butt kicked in the market place.

I'm not sure I can help my client completely beat his competitor. Should I try to get whatever market share I can and position their products to at least be respectable or should I just turn and run?

Thanks for the helpful advice!

Maybe they should move to a smaller market.
One where they don't have to go head to head with such frightful competition.

There is bound to be a niche that will suit them.

Good luck!

The fans, as disappointed as they might be not being able to see the full fight, would rather see you bow out due to injury then continue in the manner you did. They would've held much more respect for you since there is no shame in acknowledging defeat as a result of a serious injury.

It also becomes hard for fans to understand because so many other fighters fight with broken hands, noses, ribs, etc and put the KO on the line. Therefore, when they saw you running and not engaging to put that on the line, it made a lot of fans angry. Not saying your health shouldn't be your primary concern, but just trying to relate how the fans probably interpret some of those things.
+1 , I agree
