I agree! One also can note that in 2018 and even moreso now, Brazil refused to fight "dirty" when it came down to the wire and paid the price. Much like a babyface refusing to make the most out of a referee bump and getting clapped afterwards - hello, Adam Page! - we refused to foul, do blatant tackles and holds to stop an obvious chance, and got our asses sent back home.
We should learn how to work snug. Bryan Danielson knew how to be a prick even as a babyface. Why shouldn't we do the same?
Gable Stevenson's case is even worse than that.
