The internet raised a new generation of horror filmmakers. Kane Parsons and Curry Barker are two of the most exciting, and we’re proud Atomic Monster and Blumhouse get to be part of the story.
Saying this today felt fitting.
I don’t stand for murder. I don’t stand for violence PERIOD. Anything additional: is lies. People are choosing to distort and degrade who I am to fit a false narrative that serves their moral agenda by assuming, embellishing, dramatizing, and completely fabricating my beliefs as they see fit.
That is why I choose not to speak on any of these topics.
I’ve been called many things in the last 24 hours - but let me make something crystal clear about who I am. My name is Patricio O’Ward. I’m 26 years old, born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico. Every time I get in a race car, I carry my country’s flag on the crown of my head. I race for Mexico PROUDLY. I currently reside in the United States on a working visa. The U.S. has become home to me as I’ve grown, learned, and been challenged here. I remain proud of where I come from and where I am.
I know who I AM.
@XanderZayas first off, congratulations on your win and becoming world champ! You were eventually going to do it so I’m not surprised. But let’s keep everything 💯 you got a gift! My last 2 opponents were top 10 in this division. The opponent you just fought was a 33-4 and barely scratches the top 15 mark. All facts here 🤷🏻♂️ try and dispute them if you want. If I had won my world title against your opponent they would be tearing me to shreds rn. It’s ok for you tho because you’re young, there’s not a whole lot expected out of you rn. We’re at different levels 😇. My fight against Antonio Orozco (his only loss was to a world champion) back when I was 21 was harder than your last fight, since you wanna talk about what we have done at our ages. The other key difference between your last fight and mine is that for some odd reason my fight against Madrimov (clearly the better fight in terms of skill and popularity) wasn’t made into a world title fight for the vacant belt. Almost like the vacant belt was being held for somebody. You can say all you want that I haven’t achieved anything, but I’ve definitely proved more than you have. I’ve beaten several fighters who’ve became world champion. One who I called for to fight and knew I could beat at 140 while he had a world title but I just never got the opportunity (Hooker, all love to him, that’s my boy). One who had only just lost to arguably the number 1 p4p fighter in the world the fight before, even tho I was the #1 fighter and next in line for the belt. It’s not like it’s my fault I didn’t get the shot. Enjoy the belt while you have it
