Andrew Golota wasn't faking, he did injure his arm, pics included

[No Contest]

I've had bruising like that on my elbow before, after a fall on a skateboard.... I couldnt move my arm but it healed up fine with no doctor visit.

Naw if you look closely you can see the bruising from tendon damage, who knows how its going to heal even with surgery. We allways assume that just because they do surgery, its going to heal fine,sometimes thats just not the case.
Hope he's got a damned good surgeon

OUCH ,, Boxing must hurt

It was pretty obvious during the fight that his injury was genuine. I have a hard time fathoming how anybody could even envisage that he was faking it. Im not particularly keen on Golota but he does deserve a rematch, no fight deserves to be decided as that was, and so prematurely too.

OK..... Im not an expert of any sort, but can anyone tell me how the HELL an injury likes he suffered(I saw the round, thought it must have been that he pulled or seperated something, maybe tores some muscles or what have you) caused the completely hideous bruising all over his arm. I mean for chirsts sakes it looks like his arm was run over by a truck, there is no possible way he took enough punishment to that arm to cause the bruising as far as I can invision, having badly broken my own snowboarding and having nowhere near that kind of bruising it just baffles me. Not that they are neccesarily comparable injuries, I just would love an explanation as to what on earth causes that.
