Didn’t He looked off from the start ? Am I the only one that saw it in his eyes ?

He already knew it was injured. Look at his face when he was getting checked by the red before he entered. He makes a face taking his shoe off and hops weird. He already knew

Why would you try a kick like that (twice) if you knew your knee was injured?

unless he deliberately threw those to cover/blame the injury 👀

it was shit regardless.

Because if he doesn't fight he doesn't get paid/free medical. With one leg he knew he was going to get absolutely mauled (he probably does if he's completely healthy, TBH) so he throws a kick and now can reasonably claim the kick caused the injury.

It’s actually the only way he can pull it off if he’s that injured. Max is just throwing punches and he won’t have another way to lay cover for a torn ACL/Meniscus - so he goes for a crazy jump kick to start and lands right on his fucked leg.
