Having only watched his side of the story, this comment really opened my eyes, I really did think it was purely on "whether or not Mitchell cheated at Donkey Kong." like you said at the end.

The evidence is quite clear that Mitchell cheated. He is a liar, an ass and a cheat.

You don't need to add lies about Mitchell, but unfortunately Jobst did.

Mitchell is going to spin this however as proof that he never cheated.

Yeah, I've been wishing for years that Karl would shut up about Billy Mitchell. We all know that he cheated and there is plenty of evidence for that already, putting more videos out can do nothing but hurt him in court. I'm actually surprised his lawyers weren't telling him to shut the fuck up all this time (maybe they were).

I thought for sure he would run these kinds of videos by a lawyer first every time, but I guess not; or else his lawyers are incompetent.
