I have talked to ex tough guys and they always take the high road when talking about teammates or ex rivals. First and foremost they are a brotherhood of lion kings and we're just squirrels trying to find a nut. |
You're absolutely correct, the Fotiu in Calgary was an old Fotiu, past his prime as a fighter. I think the Fotiu we saw in Calgary was living off his well earned reputation.
