“We’re in New York hanging out and he’s jaywalking,” Darby Allin said. “And I see this bus, it’s taking a right turn. And I’m like, ‘There’s no way they’re going to see Raymond at night walking. Like at all.’ Because like I said, he can’t even really walk that good. So as I’m like pushing him, ‘All right, hurry up. Hurry up. Go, go, there’s a bus coming.’
“Then as the bus is taking a right, it might have been going like 8-10 miles [per hour], so it wasn’t anything like 30 miles an hour. But as I was pushing him out of the way, the side of the bus window — my faced bounced off of it. So you could say I saved Raymond Pettibon’s life.”
Allin went on to say that he didn’t immediately get checked out by medical personnel. He then confirmed that he broke his nose and his dignity.
“Definitely the nose is broke,” Darby Allin said. “The only thing that got broke in the accident is my nose and my dignity.”
As of this writing, the timeline for Darby Allin’s return to the ring is unclear. During the interview, Allin said that his foot was not scheduled to heal until June.
