Boyington and Raio discussed the upcoming rematch and the controversy surrounding their first meeting in February 2014, besteak beste.
The interview quickly turned to the top of the first fight. Raio appeared to apply a rear-naked choke to Boyington on the mat late in the first round. Boyington began waving his hand in the air and referee Jimmy Bickford quickly stepped in to stop the fight. Much has been made of the infamous “olatua.” While Bickford saw it as a sign of Boyington’s submission, Boyington sostengatu du bere zale zuela seinalatzeko zen besterik Epaileak ere ez zela inolako kalte egiten.
“Gau horretan nola amaitu dizut,” recalled Raio of the first bout. “Funtsean, Bruce had given me his back. When I took his back, I had the hooks in and I had the rear-naked choke across his jaw line. I was trying to pressure it under his throat, eta ezkerreko nire bicep harrapatu nuen, eta baita nire ezkerreko zen bere burua atzean joan, Nahiko borrokan gelditu… Harritu nintzen zuela delako tapped, zintzotasunez, Banekien presio handia izan duela bere cefalópodo dut… Hain zuzen ere, astintzen zen bada, harentzat sucks.”
“Egoera horretan, Zehazki gogoratzen dut Bickford niri begira, Naiz gora begira, Nire lepoa zuen joan eta agurtzen naiz,” Said Boyington. “Denek hasten benetako ozen roaring eta gogoan dut Bickford esanez, 'No Bruce, Ezin duzu esan '… Hori aurkezteko edo naizela uste baduzu arazorik egon naiz, edo ezin arnasa, you don’t tell the fighter, “Ezin da esan duten,” you just jump in and you stop the fight. I feel like he made a mistake. I feel like he realizes that… Gauza asko duten John online esan du ikusten dut, eta gauza asko beste pertsona esan dute, and that’s when I really started to get bothered by what had happened. I felt like he could’ve handled it better.”
Aurretik Boyington bizkarrean behera uzten, many felt he had been winning that first round. Izan ere, Boyington’s striking seemed to be on point that evening. Peterson asked both competitors to speculate on what would have happened had the referee not stopped the bout at that point.
“Ezinbestean, Uste dut John Zuk postuan litzateke,” stated Boyington emphatically. “Ez dut uste botako dut aurkeztu zion, because that would be his best chance with me. He’s strong enough to defend a submission.”
“Nahiko ez bazen garai hartan gelditu dela uste dut, denean bere nire forearm batera jaw nengoen eta lepoa atzean iritsi zen I,” Ray espekulatu, “I believe my arm would’ve slid under his throat and it would’ve ended sometime soon before the round. Beraz, Ez dut uste desagertu dut litzateke bigarren txanda bat.”
Egunetan, aste eta hilabeteetan borroka jarraian, both Boyington’s and Raio’s massive fan-followings have been very vocal on social media regarding the outcome of the bout. The heated debate has raged between both sides for well over a year now. With so much at stake for each side at “NEF XVIII,” bai kirolari zer errebantxa esan nahi du ukitu, eta asteburu honetan frogatu behar dutena egiteko.
“Ezin dut han joan eta beat John,” Said Boyington. “Nahiz eta bere zale egin direla espero… Ezin dut besterik joan ez dago, Ekainaren 13anand beat John Raio. I gotta go in there and destroy him. Or I still lose out on this fight. Ezagutzen dut, and I’m gonna go in there and make that statement. And I’m gonna do it with one arm, Beste besoa ez da, nahiz eta oraintxe bertan lanean delako… I haven’t worried about this date from day one. It’s nothing to do with John Raio. I don’t disrespect the guy. I don’t not like the guy. He’s a good man. I’m just at another level. I need to show up and prove that. That’s what it is to me. It’s not about me beating John. It’s about me showing everybody where I belong.”
“Bruce dagokionez me azkar akabera, eta erraza egiteko, eta ez benetan borrokari buruz kezkagarria gehiegi, Aurkitu besterik ez dut disrespectful zuen esan zidan gauza asko bezala, nire familia eta nire lagunak,” replied Raio. “Baziren aldiz jendea ziren me zoriondu azken borroka ondoren (Facebook-en) and he’d go on like a one or two paragraph rant on every single comment everyone had put on my page for like three days straight. Beraz, Horren ondotik, esan nuen, "Bruce eta biok ez garela benetan jada lagunak,’ so I deleted him. I liked him before that fight… Baina jendeak disrespect me bezalakoa egiten duela zaila da zentzuduna gustatzen.”
