Not A Loss, But a Lesson

Mark Salgado dropped a split decision on his second professional fight.

In a culture where it’s accepted to pad records, claim robbery, make excuses, and never take accountability for losses, I’m proud to be a part of #teamsalgado. Mark and his team impressed me, not only with his fight, but in his attitude in the aftermath. Jesse has been preaching the right message and has right people surrounding Mark in his journey. Looking forward to the comeback.
