When Floyd says "Taking punishment is not cool"

[Blue Heffner]

It means rather than show up at the post fight press conference with a swollen head, busted lips, bloody nose, and big dark sunglasses to answer questions -- it's better to work on improving your defense.

Well said.

IMO what he is saying is for all the people who ONLY get excited by wars to F* off and stop calling him boring.... and IMO he is kinda right, if all you like is wars then go watch MMA, yes wars are fun to watch but they can have a serious effect on the fighters health so if you can win without getting dragged into a war then y not?
