In a recent chat with Sports Illustrated, Swerve Strickland really complimented MJF for his AEW run.
With Danielson’s career on the line, Strickland will defend the World Title against Bryan Danielson, while MJF vs. Will Ospreay will battle for the American Title at All In.
“All I remember about him was his hunger. He wasn’t afraid. That’s what set him apart–he didn’t have that fear of going wherever he needed to be to get better. Max wanted to be around great competition. Even when he was young, he always put himself around top talent and he wanted to test himself in hard conditions. That’s how he got so good at such a young age. I don’t think Max has anything left to prove. That’s how good he is. But he’ll never tell himself that or allow himself to believe that. He’ll always keep working.“
