Enabling folks to assault a fighter before their fight is nasty behaviour.

[chiganuggoo]

Could have been ACID. Appalling appalling situation which could have been much worse.

[AmIDeadYet]

Poor Sandy bet she's overcome with emulsion.

[Emma-fdmm]

This seems planned by someone in the opposing team with access to the venue. It's way too personal for just a weirdo fan to do it. Mayer's team need investigated here. If it's proven to be a weirdo fan then fair enough but it warrants some kind of investigation.

worst interviewer how rude, asking her to take her hat off

[garydevlin]

‘Can you take the cap off…Just wanna see what’s in your eyes…’ WTF?! steady on mate! 🤨

[ricd]

This some Nancy Kerrigan Tonya Harding type of bs

[mrgrandi]

Very disgusting. She may not want to come back to the US after this, plus she felt that she was robbed fight night. Personally I had her edging out Mayer.

[gnayr]

After watching the fight and then seeing this, I have a lot of respect for this young lady. 🙏

[warriorish]

This should merit an immediate rematch. This likely changed her focus for the fight .🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊

[Adam-xsng]

In the interview you could see she was visibly and mentally disturbed by the incident. She was almost in a child like state, definitely shaken up by the attack. Now this equally could have given her super focus on the fight or been a massive distraction from the task at hand. Hope they catch those responsible.

Mikaela Mayer's smirk and laugh suggests that she was behind it

[ericklamb]

If you unexpectedly get hit with something & see red all over yourself your immediate reaction would be thinking it's blood, so you would be initially shocked, well out of order!😡
Having said that, I don't think Makaela Mayer is that type of character to set that up, but a nutty fan probably 🥊💥

[joeybidner]

mikaela pulled a tanya harding 100%. i was a huge fan of Meyer until now. lost me as a fan BIG time

[Neo-oqrx]

Love the way she’s painting a picture of what happened

[Daniel-ugrx]

Sandy looks so deflated. If the interview was before the fight then it definitely had an impact on losing that fight. What scumbags!

[maddude]

So what third world country did this happen in?

[akalksander]

Typical coward act from thugs in NY. In the past they threw batteries at the players during a game at yankee stadium.

[Dirk-Diggler]

Where the hell was security to allow that to happen

[Jayson_G]

About time Mikaela got the W she kept getting robbed in England and she wasn't about to get robbed at home
