Individuals presuming Isaiah is immunized are incorrect. He didn’t get the shot. He is a healthy fighter doing 2 a day practices. Taking a trip and training with the very best fighters and coaches in Indiana. Not to discuss his balls are larger than individuals for just entering the cage. The majority of you will never ever experience the strength of a battle. Not to mention experience being typed the face.
Some individuals were asking truthfully and some individuals simply wished to be “ideal”. I’m sorry for individuals who truly asked, however for the others who are concentrated on arguing about a vaccine can argue their points elsewhere. Isaiah is not immunized.
You can put your minds to rest as individuals who really like and support Isaiah will continue to inspire him.
