Though fans have laughed at Mongo’s struggles in the ring, Lance Storm wants fans to remember that Mongo put forth a valiant effort and could have easily coasted off his football reputation.
As much as I love this account I hope people Respect Mongo for the effort he put forth. He was thrown in the deep end and went full bore. Many others would have big leagued and been lazy. #Respect. https://t.co/OIUBCPA9IB
