Career

U.S. boxer Rudolph Bradley said his first thought when Raúl González put him down was, "Man, he's strong. I knew the Cubans were strong but I didn't think he could put me down. Yeah, I was in trouble, but I was boxing and moving, trying to get my head back. I've never been stopped, I've been hit hard hundreds of times in Army fights."[1]

gollark: Also, the fuel level will probably not be exactly 100000. You should check if it's greater than or equal to that.
gollark: You're comparing numbers against strings so they don't match.
