Just wondering how many people have competed with an injury, what it was and what would be the cut off for you? How much worse would that injury have to be before you'd pull out?
I have done it many times, I never talk about it, never let the opponent know what it is. even past injuries, because you don’t want to give insight to your problem areas even after they heal. truth is almost always something sore going into a match . a knuckle a rib, strained back, shoulder... I once fought with cracked ribs, money and venue had been set, a bit too late for a pullout and truth was it hadn’t flared up on me os what the hell ! .. in hind sight I would have come down with the FLU. if you know what i mean ? haha

anyway. There were no problems till the 3rd. and fuck all. got hit with a shot to body it like to kill me, Had to keep moving forward reluctantly vs. this monster. Praying for inner strength to finish on my feet. I did !
