“Nothing fucks you harder than time” – Ser Davos Seaworth
As an old fart who has been through back surgery, hair loss, eyesight loss, hearing loss, rotator cuff injuries and all sorts of other old-man-related reality, I should have known that Iron Mike was a bull being put out to pasture in a gimmick fight. I wanted to believe he had a couple massive punches left in him.
I wanted to believe that “old age and treachery will always beat youth and exuberance” as Memet once said.
Apparently that’s only true when you bet against that fucker Tom Brady at age 44.
