“Rewatch this fight and know, that when you ask yourself the question: ‘how did Max, with his level of defense, get hit with so many punches?’, that according to the doctor that operated on him, he had already suffered a stroke and continued to fight.”
She continued: “While experiencing the most inhumane pain and losing his orientation, he did not quit, he rose from his knees a million times from the blows of fate, kept moving forward, and never gave up!”
Elizaveta earlier paid tribute to her husband on Wednesday, posting a touching family photo with the caption: “My love! You are forever in my heart, my soul is breaking from the pain of being without you! The most difficult time for our family has begun.”
