Lol you've got to be kidding me with this. Your tired of this BS? What BS? That someone has to really fight for what they want? That no matter what, when it comes down to it you just have to throw everything you have and more down on that ice? That a 19 year old kid with asthma has no choice BUT to fight through the LP which has monstrous technical difficulty? That he doesn't want to lose to himself and he'll go down fighting? That he skated on an injured ankle in '12 but told no one about but instead took painkillers and gave his everything? That he never complains about being injured or have aches/excuses when he fails and just blames himself? That he skated with injury's today as well; back and knees apparently; and again told no one? We only got to see a peak the pain he was going through after he finished his LP. He fought to land that 4S that was taunting him this whole season.
Your comment pisses me off to no end. And its not just because its regarding Yuzuru. You're saying that a skater that is giving their all and fighting for the title as WORLDS BEST is BS. Its what sports is all about, there should be no other way to but to fight for it. I will appreciate his win here way more than I will ever appreciate his Olympic gold (which was just handed to him because Chan didn't fight for HIS gold :disapp:
Mao falling on her face in the OLY short and coming storming back for the FS. Rochette getting on the podium 48 hours aftrer the death of her mother. Even Lysacek who noone thought had a chance at gold but who doggedly trained until he had enough. These show real character. Hanyu was straining alright - but the result just wasnt championship material. He´s a young man. His real toughening up comes now. He will loose his boyish advantage, the jumps will become tougher, the press and compeitors will hound him. This makes the grat champions of Mao, Yagudin and Kwan.
