Although Matthysse lost his belt to the eight-division world champion, he humbly accepted his defeat and even posed beside the People’s Champ.
La Maquina said in an interview with GMA News, “Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Today was my turn to lose but I lost to a great fighter, a great legend.”
