I was just one 30 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 1: of those little kids that God kind of blessed dirt. 31 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: You know. People always tell you that God prepares you 32 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: for what, for what already got ahead, you know. And 33 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: for me going up, watching the animals have taught me 34 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,679 Speaker 1: a lout of a box in my fighting, so I 35 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: would always take in everything because my thing. Man, I 36 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:17,359 Speaker 1: ain't get nothing. Nobody really do, really do, but able 37 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: to have their own way of how they find their 38 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: way through life. One of my ways through nature. You know. 39 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: I had a I had a dope. My pension once 40 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 1: basically saved my life. You know, some wild was about 41 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: to follow me, and people don't believe the story. But 42 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: the world I was small shouldn't been messed with the 43 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 1: woodn't way about to fall back home. Man, the dog 44 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: jumped up and put it with on the weight on 45 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,040 Speaker 1: the wood. Help get the word back from following me 46 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: more loyal. If it would have felt on me I've 47 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: been done, nobody would have got me there want to 48 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,919 Speaker 1: find me all day because my dad adn't got work 49 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: like five o'clock in the afternoon, so nobody would have 50 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 1: found me. But anyway, you know, I always been loyal 51 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: to the animals because of what they do for me. 52 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: So people always like how you just no, no, no no, 53 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: it's not about that's about caring for things. And where 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 1: you learn it from. God was teaching me from my 55 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: observation what those animals were doing. So that's how I 56 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: learned the game. And that helped me learn the game. 57 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 1: And so when you start taking what God teaches you 58 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 1: and you put it and you can put it in 59 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: an actional, put in motion, it becomes a beautiful thing 60 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: to my my upbringing. With that first, then when I 61 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: got my teens, I kind of got to well. I 62 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: started having no more challenges. We moved back to the city, 63 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: out of the country and more time and my father 64 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: being My coach was a tough thing because he was 65 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 1: on the seven. When you're on a kid seven, A 66 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: lot of fathers don't realize that you can't still on 67 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: the four seven because you don't allow him time to 68 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: be a kid. So that time not allow me to 69 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: be a kid kind of drove me to be a 70 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: different animal, you feel me. So it made me a 71 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: good animal or a bad animal too, because I grew 72 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: up with a lion mentality. A lion of mentality is 73 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: once you leave in this, you don't go back the line, 74 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: don't come back home. He leave that, will get there 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: on that and say that's how I was raised up. 76 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: So I appreciate him for teaching me it that way. 77 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: I just I don't think we had to be quite 78 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: as bad where we couldn't communicate to day. It's something 79 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: able don't communicate to date. It's a hurtful thing in 80 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: a sense. But when you know what like I know it, 81 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 1: you know how deeply rooted understand Yeah, you understand it, 82 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: So you can't really fault nobody for what they did. 83 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: And I'm really appreciative for what I was talking the 84 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 1: way I was talking, because it made me into something 85 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: that I probably never knew I could be. Yeah, so 86 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: that's that's that's really my upbringing. Where did you find 87 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: the love for sports, in particular boxing, Well, honestly speaking, 88 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: I was of my My father was my first hero, 89 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: but he not. My father played basketball, and my father 90 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: was thot you was nice to you thought you thought 91 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: was like I realized it. Never it never stopped amazing 92 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: me that once I see I taught y'all all, I'm like, 93 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: you know what you did right back?

I played for ah, the Bratonton Ducks there 97 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,600 Speaker 1: so the two thousand two Ye yeah, I played the league. 98 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, that was right before I gut went 99 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,559 Speaker 1: up to the Clippers.

I enjoyed basketball first 101 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: because that's what my father was playing. And my father 102 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: was a hell of a shooter. My father was Sydney, 103 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: of course, but he was damn the averaging four without 104 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: three point line. You know, that's just how good shot 105 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: he was. So I love basketball. But then we sat 106 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: down once, well I didn't sit down he was sitting 107 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: there watching the fight, and I realized what it was. 108 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,480 Speaker 1: It was Audie and Joe Fraser. I think in nineteen 109 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: seventy four, I'm five years years old. I'm watching it 110 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: and I'm seeing Mohammed he beat you with his mind. 111 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: And at that age, already at five, I was a 112 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: hell of agitated. I can get on anybody nerves. You 113 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: know that mean, but they couldn't catch me. But I 114 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: can get on anybody nerves. So I started seeing that. 115 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: I was like, Wow, if somebody teach me to use 116 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: my hands, I can do what he's doing because I'm 117 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 1: never gonna get mad enough to you.

Because when I 170 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: got to show Olympics, look what happened to me. But 171 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: I had been through it about ten times in that 172 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: thirteen so I knew what it was and I knew 173 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: that it could have. I just did never think that 174 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: that could happen on that big of a stage in 175 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: front of everybody on not national but worldwide. You just 176 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,319 Speaker 1: don't think that can happen. Well, you're talking about I mean, 177 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 1: take us back, man, I didn't mean to jump in Jack. 178 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: You're talking about the a D Olympics situation. Talk to 179 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: us about that because obviously we've seen what happened. But 180 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: from your point of view, what do you feel like? Man, 181 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what really happened. I know that they 182 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: were supposed to anger about something that took place in 183 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 1: the nineteen eighty four Olympicks here in l A, OK. 184 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 1: So because of that, they decided they take it back 185 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: out on us in eight and I happened to be 186 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: the person that they would take it out on. You understanding, 187 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: But the good thing about this is, like I said, 188 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: God has God always prepares us for us to come 189 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 1: best of all planners. So because I had already been 190 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 1: through it ten times at the thirteen, I knew what 191 00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: it was like and my father's always timid. Don't cry, 192 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: just be cool, don't weary better So when it happened, 193 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: I had been well versed in how to react to it, 194 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: because what people didn't understand was my shirt didn't say Jones. 195 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: My shirts said U s A. I remempresent royal Jones 196 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: remempers us of the country. So if I asked the food, 197 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna have been on us as a country. So 198 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: God put on the person who would have handled it 199 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: the best way. I think, prepared to him the best way. 200 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: I didn't know that them teeing to that thirteen was 201 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: getting ready for that, but that's what they were getting 202 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: ready for. So when I got to that, I would like, 203 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: hang't it man? So what idea was after the decision, 204 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 1: you're going to back the drug test you and you 205 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: get dressed and you come out for the ceremony. So 206 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: when I went to the back, I had to interpret that. 207 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 1: I say, asked me if you think he won't, because 208 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: if he said yeah, the camera on them more. I 209 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: got to get that again. If he said yeah, camera don't, 210 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: now I gotta get again, he said, no, I know 211 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,200 Speaker 1: I didn't win, but it wasn't me with the church 212 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,319 Speaker 1: sugar his hand and walked off. I've never seen him Soul, 213 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: South Korea since that day. I didn't see him again 214 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 1: to October this year, really first time again October. He 215 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: told me that he went through so much trauma and 216 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 1: term more because of that. But he said every time, 217 00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: he said, every time I got in the box of 218 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: the professional he was teaching school in Korea, he said, 219 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: every time his students roasted him the whole time from 220 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: when they heard I was a fighting fight. So he 221 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: went through more trauma I did. And that's what people 222 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: don't understand. When you do things, it's the same to 223 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: me as people who no pull out then and kill 224 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: people nowadays, when you do things you're not affecting right now, 225 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 1: you're taking the whole chain of people you're feeling. It's 226 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: not just what's happening right here. You've got kids, you've 227 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: got fail you've got everybody that disaffects. It had a 228 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 1: bad effect on me at the time, but it had 229 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: a worst effect on him to long long. So he 230 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: was like when he's talking this year, he said, man 231 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: if I can I just want to try to arrange 232 00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 1: some way to give you the medal backs. My family 233 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 1: told me I should have been gave you to meddle, 234 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: you know, because I've just imagined the kids in the 235 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: class now you're talking. I didn't imagine as soon as 236 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: he started trying to teach you something, trying to hear 237 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: that right here, whipping your ass. No, but okay, well 238 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:50,960 Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's that's big of him. Yeah, you 239 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: know what I mean. So is that something that's gonna happen. 240 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think the I think they changed 241 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: from I able to something else now, but they're saying 242 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 1: that they might try to arrange for it happen. I 243 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: don't know. It meant more for me that he decided 244 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: that he wanted to give it to me anything so 245 00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: cause nobody made him do it. He chose to own conscience. 246 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: Got enough that he's saying, and he said his family 247 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,599 Speaker 1: told him he should have been given back, so he 248 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: didn't want to get in touch with Seven years later, Yes, yes, crazy. 249 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: So you make your pro debut May sixth, nineteen nine. 250 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,040 Speaker 1: What do you remember about that night that the ring 251 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:28,120 Speaker 1: was packed? The guy was he wasn't dressed right to 252 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: be a real finale.

No, I don't know how I feeling. 277 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 1: But you can't you you you can't win here to night. 278 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 1: What was that training camp like for you? I mean, 279 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: obviously if you said you in the Olympics, much change, 280 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 1: not much change going into your pro career, not much change, 281 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,439 Speaker 1: Just that you have to get used because when I 282 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:54,200 Speaker 1: first started boxing, there was no head get rude, but 283 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,360 Speaker 1: during my time boxing amateur, the head gear rude came in. 284 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: So you have to get used to wearing headcare I'll 285 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,079 Speaker 1: tough is up. It's not hard to wear head gear 286 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 1: was What's hard to get used to it is not 287 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 1: wearing it again. But then, not only do you not 288 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 1: wear a head gear, but these girls a little smaller 289 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: than the amateur girls too, So you ain't got on 290 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 1: no head gear and the girls are smaller, so you've 291 00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: gotta be a little bit more on points. So remember 292 00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: what I tell you about how he looked. That's even 293 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: worse now you exactly what are some of your more 294 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: memorable um experiences and opponents is throughout your career. My 295 00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: most some of the most memorable situations are It's like, 296 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: you know how some time you have a game, you 297 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: don't feel good, but you gotta go the way you 298 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: feel me. So it's like for me, and that's why 299 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: I have a hard time identified with a lot of younger, 300 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 1: younger athletes. And you know, it's just hard for me 301 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: because in our day, it didn't matter if you was hurting. 302 00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,480 Speaker 1: If you can walk, you can play. That's how that's 303 00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:57,320 Speaker 1: how we understand me. So it's like I understand, but 304 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: I come from that era that my theater not gonna 305 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: let me sit nowhere and not fighting what I'm saying. 306 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 1: So it got so bad too.

Every idea hurt. 331 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: But once again, like I keep telling you, God, I 332 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: was prepared for what to come when I beat But 333 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 1: I hopped in the first time on the so and 334 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: saying right was hurt being with the lift, No, not 335 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: my right hand. I couldn't throw a punch because my 336 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: right was hurt so bad this one from that Jym'm 337 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: not gonna from something else. But I had an injury 338 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 1: from my first world title fight. I told my partner, 339 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: Derek smoke Ganner. He was like, what, don't take the fight? 340 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: I said, as crazy and as much of a rebel 341 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: as I am, if I don't take the fight now, 342 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: they may never give me an opportunity to because they 343 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: don't want to see me. Y'all know how to go. Really, 344 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: they don't want to see the real one gown and 345 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: then you're doing the outside the box. You're not doing 346 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 1: what they want you to do. And I didn't want 347 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: to see you get there. So I said, they're not 348 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: gonna never give another shot. I gotta go, just like 349 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: I did that National going to good with one hand, 350 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: but not one hand. So and that was it was 351 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: coming up next. I mean in ninete, your first matchup. 352 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 1: I mean unanimous decision with one hand. That's what you're 353 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: telling us right now. So I'm trying to tell one 354 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 1: hand he know it? Yeah, you know, where do you? 355 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: We've talked to obviously Rest in Peace, Code, We've talked 356 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 1: to people like Code Able to take his mind in 357 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,399 Speaker 1: other places during situations. I mean, I'm sure it happens 358 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: to boxes all time. Summer obviously can handle better than 359 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: other Where do you take your mind when you know 360 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: you can sparingly throw you know one of your weapons? Well, 361 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: um for me, man, this is why I trained my 362 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: fighter to where I trained them. I tried to teach 363 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,719 Speaker 1: you how to win one hand, even in training every day, 364 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: because one day it might come down. Then if you 365 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 1: hit and hurt him with this one. I got a 366 00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 1: friend name Gabe Brian. I hit to you all the time. 367 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: He would tell him that, man, my right hand hurt. 368 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: I said, what about your left? Because you know it's okay, 369 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,159 Speaker 1: so we'll get your stuff on you. I'm saying me 370 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: because I don't hear excuses. It's not where I'm from. 371 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: So when you get mentally, when your mental tells you 372 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: you gotta go or what you do for a living, 373 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 1: it's nothing that should stopped it, you know. I mean, so, 374 00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: I've been in several situations where I've had upset stomachs. 375 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 1: I had all kinds of stuff happened to me. I 376 00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: had stitches before I found a guy. I was playing 377 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: basketball Wednesday. I got your wins got cut wins the third. 378 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: I wouldn't got stitches on the inside and outside. Friday, 379 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 1: I went to win with glasses on, said I fought 380 00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 1: with stitches in my eye. I'm cut before I go 381 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,159 Speaker 1: in there. More people want to come out when they 382 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,880 Speaker 1: get cut in there, I'm going up. Did you bust back? 383 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: But not? It can't happen like that. So we have 384 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: to have a mental that's so strong that nothing else matters. 385 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying, man, that's what my mental when I when 386 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,399 Speaker 1: I was in my prime, when I got ready to go, 387 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: nothing that's matter. I don't care if I come. I 388 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: actually felt better if something's wrong with me, because now 389 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: I know that put more person for me to happen. 390 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: Not I gotta think if you ain't not gotta do. 391 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,960 Speaker 1: I could have a guy figured out. Then's something happened 392 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,400 Speaker 1: to me. I'm like, dag it, man, it's just God 393 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:12,040 Speaker 1: to me. Now you gotta be on your p's and 394 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,919 Speaker 1: Q still because you don't have this. You gotta do 395 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:19,880 Speaker 1: with just them three?

I might to find him after the fight. 443 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 1: But I'm ready to fight one that because I need 444 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: to be the boss, and he was the man. To 445 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: be the man, you gotta beat the men, and that's 446 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: where I came from. So when I got rid of 447 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: that's really part of why I mean and my father 448 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 1: fell out because I found out that they offered me 449 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,120 Speaker 1: a fight with James Hunter before and my father said no, no, 450 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 1: I got to beat him, not you. You came telling 451 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 1: him no, you can make him scare him, and you're 452 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: gonna say no to you in it. Well, like I always, 453 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: I'm keep going back to the point. I'm sorry y'all, 454 00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:57,960 Speaker 1: but God, I always prepare you for what he got 455 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 1: coming coming in the future. For you understand me. I 456 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: watched Howard David Jr. Senior. I mean, I watched Howard 457 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: David Senior whole Howard Davis Jr. A little too long 458 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: before we let him for for a time, Howard David Junior. 459 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: I think wont the Veil Blocker Cup, which is the 460 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 1: most standing boxing at the Olympics in seventy six. It 461 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: was seventy six, so I wanted Samething eighty eight, but 462 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: he wanted seven six, and he was the best boxing 463 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 1: at the Olympics in seventy six. Sugar let him want 464 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 1: to become CHAMPI Lee or Randolph's springing brothers. Everybody became 465 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: Champ except Howard. Why because his father was in control 466 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: of his career. Because father want to go to heat field. 467 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 1: Read where you can't let him fight when you read 468 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 1: it because you ain't fighting. He So I observed that, 469 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: and God was teaching me that. I didn't know it, 470 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: but God was showing me there from this. I didn't 471 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: meet a a day to time I got twenty seven 472 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:55,000 Speaker 1: years old, but I understood his life told because God 473 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: was shortly to me and playing, if you, if you 474 00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 1: go down that road, this what's gonna happen to you. 475 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: So when it came town once I realized my dadd 476 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: had tried to fight down one time. You can't be 477 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 1: speaking for me because I know in my mind I'm 478 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 1: a better fighting this dude. I need to beat this dude. 479 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 1: Why I know I'm a better fighting him. I don't 480 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 1: wait either way to you think I'm a better fighting him. 481 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 1: I know now, So the second time they asked me, yes, 482 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 1: you're fighting he the best. I want to be the best, 483 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: but you're middleweight. Don't pay that enough to new attention. 484 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: I ain't on middleweight, I'm pound pound. Yes, I fighting, 485 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:34,600 Speaker 1: And that's how that happened. James m was animal, still 486 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: is animal. He was how much heavier was he than you? Well, 487 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 1: one week a spot he was at sixty eight and 488 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,160 Speaker 1: I was at sixty year But now, but what else? 489 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: People don't realize the politics of the game. He was 490 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: with top rank right, So when I beat Hopkins Um, 491 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: James torn had went up to one eight and beat 492 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: Iran Brock. I think for the title they gave. They 493 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,400 Speaker 1: gave James Tony in days to decide whether you wanted 494 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: to keep the super Midway title or the Middleway title. Right, 495 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 1: he said, I keep super Midway types for me and 496 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: but no for the Middleway typle right. When I signed 497 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 1: to fight him for the Supermderways, just like he did 498 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: when he went with a fat box, I signed to 499 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 1: fight him for the Superway title. They stripped me at 500 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:21,080 Speaker 1: the Middleway title. Once again, when you're on your own, 501 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: feel that's how they do you. So now all the 502 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: deals making worse for him because if I lose now, 503 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,159 Speaker 1: I ain't got no Bill he lost the bark. He 504 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: still at the middleway. Bill, I lose, ain't got nothing nothing. 505 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 1: I'm rock bottom, but I can't go rock bottom, so 506 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 1: I can't lose that. So it just they just made 507 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: it better for me. Nine nine, you became the undisputed 508 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 1: light heavyweight champion. You want to find a w B, 509 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:48,560 Speaker 1: a w BC and ib F. What was that feeling like? 510 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: That was something I always wanted to do, but I 511 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:52,639 Speaker 1: didn't think I'd ever get the opportunity to do it 512 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: because of the promotional situation. If you wouldn't with this promoter, 513 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 1: or you wouldn't did a depth promoter, you wouldn't get 514 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: the fight. Represented yourself, not a path sometime. But you 515 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: have talked about enough though, because that's that's that's serious. 516 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: I mean back then they're doing it now. Back then, yeah, 517 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 1: back then they weren't doing it, and even now they 518 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: don't do it that much because the fact of the 519 00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 1: matter is if they represented themselves now we get the fights. 520 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: We want to see a box but they don't do that. 521 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: Then if y'all remember, and y'all know because y'all was doing, 522 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,239 Speaker 1: y'all thinking my time, so at the same time I 523 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: would so it was so bad with me that I 524 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 1: would get on TV after the fight and give you 525 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: my phone up if you want to fight, that's that's 526 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,240 Speaker 1: how bad I wanted to wat you best. That's pre promotional. 527 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: You don't want to prove out the busins. Ain't even 528 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: to kill them. I just want to get the best. 529 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: So if you thought you could so. It was a 530 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: guy in Germany, Darius Miklechki. The w BO was new, 531 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 1: he had BO built. If you're offered him, I mean 532 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 1: to come to you, not sit to fight me. He said, No, 533 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: I got someven dolts that want me to take myseven 534 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 1: dolts and go to Germany to fighting for his one 535 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,640 Speaker 1: in his in general, he lived. You think what happened 536 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: to me? I just went to different and got robbed. 537 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 1: You think I'm gonna do that again? No, So if 538 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 1: you really want to smoke, come get it right here. 539 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: I got seven of them, I got the bills. Yeah, 540 00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:14,719 Speaker 1: what I'm coming to you from. So people always talk 541 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: about but they don't they don't tell the truth. I 542 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: ain't definitely done nothing. You know, even I find I 543 00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: shouldn't have fault. I fought just once. I once I 544 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: put my name on there, you fight. Take us into 545 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,399 Speaker 1: the walls with Antonio talking, well, the first one is like, 546 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: what happened? Was I beat when he was an ambsious 547 00:26:32,520 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: He went off on we never let that go? He 548 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: know that goes? Yeah, I know, honestly, I watched the 549 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 1: whole he went on around page. He got his life 550 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 1: back together because of me. He got a life back 551 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 1: together though, because he realized the dang I was saying him. 552 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: We used to have a good competition, and look what 553 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: he did, so I can make some of myself. So 554 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: I really was his hero for the longest time. So 555 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 1: because he atalized me, I just became his his own 556 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 1: is real talking, you fear me. And so the first 557 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: fight was tough because off I'd lose twenty five pounds 558 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 1: of muscle, but I still managed to beat it because 559 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: I had to do what I thought Bob it Simmons 560 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: had did, which was when the heavyweight title didn't go 561 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 1: back after that and recapture light every time. But I 562 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 1: think Bob Bob Simmon didn't win the light heay with 563 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 1: titles after he wanted Heayway title. He hadn't one livery 564 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: great title before he won the Heavway title. Then he 565 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: lost that, then he went down back and won the 566 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: light hea with title. He didn't win it, go and 567 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: win every time and go back and regain, so I 568 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 1: thought that was he did. So I wanted when the 569 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,520 Speaker 1: light here with title, when don't here with title, didn't 570 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: recapture light every time, So that's why I had to 571 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: fight in the first time. The second time. I know 572 00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,160 Speaker 1: my body wouldn't real it back together, but like I said, 573 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,160 Speaker 1: my my main flowers, I don't duck mat. So somebody said, 574 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: he give your hard time. What you want to see 575 00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 1: what you mean when you say your body went back together. 576 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: My body lost twenty five pounds of muscle. That takes 577 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: a lot of He found out when he did the 578 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,160 Speaker 1: creed moving and then he went to Fall for North 579 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 1: he had on and just beat the viper or because 580 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: he had lost the muscle day game making that creep 581 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 1: move don't move whatever before I think it was he 582 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 1: did rock at six something. Anyway, he found the hardway 583 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: that when you lose that weight, it takes a toy 584 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 1: feel so second one he won third one. It's cool. 585 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: I try to bring my father back to hopefully that 586 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 1: would have mended the relationship, but it didn't. So that 587 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: didn't work out either. But he's not a bad fighter. 588 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 1: Don't get it wrong. I don't take that from nobody. 589 00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 1: But what y'all have to understand. What people to fail 590 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: to realize that that it's not about a team that 591 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: can beat you. Anybody like like a team that you'll 592 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: on championship teams. A team might beat you on any 593 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: given night, but who the champ of this deceason? Right? 594 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: So for me, anybody might beat a given night, but 595 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:44,560 Speaker 1: who donated that? The ain't Twitter years conforts It's not 596 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: about that one given night. Who can If you did 597 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,040 Speaker 1: to beat me then when it dominated for twelve years, Okay, 598 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,720 Speaker 1: I gotta take my hat off. You might be better 599 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: with me. But if you can't go beat me and 600 00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 1: go down there Twitter years like I did, keep the 601 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: people entertained and want to watch you fight like I did, 602 00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: you understand then you ain't doing what I did. So 603 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: every championship team, I mean Tampa, they want the Super 604 00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: Bowl as they had losses in the team, the Lakers, 605 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: everybody when y'all win your Santorini wherever you was, when 606 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: you'll win the championship. You have a few games loss, 607 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:17,760 Speaker 1: they can beat trying to given night, Yeah, but they're 608 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: gonna beat in the seven game series because you're the 609 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 1: better team. You understand me, And that's what's gonna stand 610 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 1: up when you get to the end, the better team. 611 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: You're gonna win that seven game series with that mentality, 612 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: and it kind of makes you easier to put that 613 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: behind you and go on to the next fight, like 614 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: with of course, yeah, of course, because I understand and 615 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 1: I know that the sacrifice I've made, I may have 616 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: had to take a hit full of because that was 617 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: a big sacrifice. Nobody had went from middleweight to have 618 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 1: weight in a hundred and six years, you understand. I 619 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,360 Speaker 1: mean people say, oh, that's good, but sugar rops some 620 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:54,880 Speaker 1: better robins. Some collapse trying to win the head Light 621 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: Heavway title. He was a fourth seven pounder, but it 622 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: collapse trying to win the Light Heavway title. So old, 623 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: I mean, really, it's hard to find a person that 624 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: was able to dominate from as far as id I 625 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: went from one fifty four to heavy weight. Nobody ever 626 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: did that before. So I will tell you, Oh, there's 627 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 1: some pound pod pound, poud no, how many I'm covered 628 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 1: as much weight pound for pound as Roaldy, none of them. 629 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:25,360 Speaker 1: Nobody never covered that much weight. So I won't say 630 00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: the arguer for myself. But it's like, if the proof 631 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 1: is in the world, fact don't like and nobody covered 632 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: that much weight? What did you do to Felix to retire? Well, 633 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: fittish was He's a good dude. He's still a good friend. 634 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:50,440 Speaker 1: I'm just keeping it real. You brought me, I don't 635 00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: dislike nobody know what I mean. And I just knew 636 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: that he was too small for me. You know. It's 637 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: like you gotta you get a six or six forgot 638 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: in the post, and yeah, and that's what that was. 639 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: He's just a little smaller. He too small for me. 640 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: You come to one sevening, but you till you still 641 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,720 Speaker 1: too small for me, so you know, And I kind 642 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 1: of knew that, and I just after that fact, I 643 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: tore it myself and this um a week in the 644 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 1: hand before the fight. But I still know here too 645 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,719 Speaker 1: small for me. So I still if I can't beat 646 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,760 Speaker 1: on one hand, something wrong with me because he's too 647 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: small for me. For the seven nock guys, which one 648 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 1: was your favorite? Um, it's a lot of knockouts. Well, 649 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: I hate this coup to dude get mad at me 650 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: every time I see it, But I have to say 651 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: it just with the truth. If he getting mad every time, man, 652 00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: and I don't mean nothing, it's true, but not against it. 653 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: But he getting mad at me every time. But my 654 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,880 Speaker 1: favorite knockout was the one against my tear Griffin. Yeah, 655 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: the second right, because because of a high all came together. 656 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's just a crazy situation. And to come 657 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: back and redeement in one round like that was pretty 658 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: spectacular and was different because I told him night before 659 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: what was gonna happen next day? Yeah, I thought the 660 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,640 Speaker 1: only thing what happened if to go reef around that. 661 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: They just qualified me around nine last time, as I'm 662 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 1: just gonna refight around now. Ain't gonna take y'all through 663 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: where I want through eight? This time? We're gonna straight 664 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: back around now. And that's really well. I mean, if 665 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 1: man take you that the day before to fight with 666 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: the take, you know, the pressures of chasing, not necessarily chasing, 667 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: but just having an undefeated record, you know, Floyd was 668 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: able to deal with what was You were there at 669 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 1: one point? Did you? You always obviously just looked at fighting, 670 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: but was there to keep the streak alive. Obviously was 671 00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 1: important to you as well. Let me tell you different 672 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: about it that Florida did a great thing because Florida's 673 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 1: a marketing genius. He was that old to the max, 674 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 1: and he did better than anybody you ever gonna see 675 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 1: do as far as marketing himself, because he took a 676 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 1: different approach than I took. But everybody's in time to 677 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,280 Speaker 1: take their on the probect And don't get y'all get 678 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,800 Speaker 1: a Twitter Florida bead dude, fight it behind or not. 679 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 1: People don't. People don't understand. I ain't gonna say he's 680 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: the best ever, but he up there. Do you know 681 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 1: people understand? People don't understand that. They said with pack 682 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: almost yeah, but Peck, I felt them bees, Pack, I 683 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: ain't running on the bees, you know what I mean. 684 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm standing his almost hurt, but it ain't. 685 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: It ain't the same you got outside looking at as 686 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,120 Speaker 1: his inside feel me. So I thought you should have 687 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: fought them earlier, Yes, because I thought pack hours that 688 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 1: are hot and I thought would have been a better fight. 689 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: Had to found the three years earlier because Peck was 690 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 1: on top of his game. But still when he fought him, 691 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 1: he still made Peck like you made Cannello do. Connello 692 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: felt that things kind of stayed onf for him for 693 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 1: a while, you feel me. So it's like you can't 694 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: take away from his boxing skills just because he don't 695 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 1: do it the way you think you're doing. The boy 696 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,600 Speaker 1: can fight in the neck and fight, you know what 697 00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 1: I'm say, man so, but you don't get fifty and 698 00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: know without knowing how to exactly exactly. But so for me, 699 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: what really pissed me off at that Monteil Griffin loss. 700 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:53,000 Speaker 1: You just seen him robbed me and the Olympics, and 701 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna take my own on thiss qualification. Wait a minute, now, 702 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: I just seen been a passants a hit Danna Rose 703 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: in black and the referee after y'all stopped in the 704 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: same day, y'all just qualify him. Then I see just 705 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:12,280 Speaker 1: a Ferguson hit. I mean not reading. He test Ferguson 706 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 1: twice while he was on his knee in the State 707 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,440 Speaker 1: of Washington in d C. And you was over that 708 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: y'all didn't just qualify him, but he's gonna do that. 709 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: Just got robbed up a gold medal. The Olympics qualify 710 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: him when the referee a referee to say stopped was 711 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: a bad back, the man nable five seven, the man 712 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: on the ground, I don't know what the man squid down? 713 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: What the man doing? I told my coat was left round, 714 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: But I don't know what you mean to do one. 715 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,200 Speaker 1: So I tapped them things gonna say stop. Refree said, okay, 716 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 1: I guess you must not be considering him down. So 717 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: and I still didn't him hard as I could. I 718 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 1: hit him again. So he went down, and they just qualified. 719 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,080 Speaker 1: So that old man a lot to me because he 720 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: did not just qualified. My problem never would have lost. 721 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: He sold it though I'm putting in my mind. Of course, 722 00:34:57,880 --> 00:34:59,759 Speaker 1: of course they're not hit him, said the sacrifice, but 723 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: he did said and that was a hell of a 724 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: way to take away from a guy who represented this 725 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,600 Speaker 1: country and got robbed one time. You feel it, really, 726 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:12,839 Speaker 1: that's what you're gonna do to me. I just went 727 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: outn't represent our country. You saw robbing me over that, 728 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 1: and now you're gonna take my away from other pro 729 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 1: that's a hurt for fitting, bro, But that going to 730 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: show you that you gotta watching. You think they called 731 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,839 Speaker 1: it only to kill all the team, so you know, 732 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: so it made me tighten up the second fight. What's 733 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 1: your mental approach? Obviously that was a different situation. But 734 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: after a loss, I mean, like, we could take losses 735 00:35:35,080 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: in our sport and still be okay because we played. 736 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: But a loss in your sport is a is a 737 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: much different how do you rebound for those? Mentally it's 738 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 1: really hard to rebound from our loss, and our sport 739 00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: is very detrimental. That's why I tell people all the 740 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 1: time you find the undefeated fighter, you gotta first teaching 741 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: how to lose, because mentally he don't know how to loose. 742 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 1: Mentally heard of it broke as hard to break a 743 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: person ain't never been broke. Now once he gets paid 744 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: the loss for me. EA's like ride a motorcycle. You 745 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 1: have a motorcycle, Rick, If you're gonna ride a motorcycle again, 746 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,839 Speaker 1: as quick as you get able, people to get your 747 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 1: behind and get back on another because you'll get afraid 748 00:36:09,040 --> 00:36:10,719 Speaker 1: to wrap one. If you sit back and think about 749 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: I hurt you and how bad it did you when 750 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 1: you're head. Now you're gonna be be skinny on it again. 751 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: Now you may not never ride another back again. For me, 752 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 1: when when it happened to me, I was like, Okay, 753 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 1: that's cool. I gotta go again. Then they have him again. Okay, 754 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:26,400 Speaker 1: well I still gotta go again. You understand me. So 755 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,359 Speaker 1: it's like, I'm the type of person. I feel like 756 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: I was supposed to fight to the end. So I'd 757 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 1: rather be knocked out than to lose a decision. Because 758 00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: I lost to hit the man, I still couldn't get more. 759 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: So not me cold. I know I shouldn't want and 760 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 1: that's how I want to go out. Yeah, I wish 761 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,080 Speaker 1: moboxers had the attitude. You know, you see a lot 762 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: of fighters these days. Man, we didn't watch fight. They're 763 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 1: looking at the corner like I know you see this. 764 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:53,840 Speaker 1: I know you've seen again with where the toil is. 765 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't want towel memorable ring walks. She once appeared 766 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 1: in the act the Radio City Auditorium and the text 767 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 1: drawn by Red meth Man, let me explain something to you, 768 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:14,480 Speaker 1: HBO who also made me, helped make me help the 769 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 1: world get to know where John Drene was. But they 770 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: really messed me up. That particularly like because they showed 771 00:37:21,719 --> 00:37:24,919 Speaker 1: movies with Kerson and all kinds of stuff after Now 772 00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: at the seven o'clock at night, this boxing. This is 773 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: the first time ever, not mard you this now, first 774 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: time ever that rap music was in the radio. See 775 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 1: the music hall, the first time ever. You see the 776 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 1: music hall. I've never had rapping it before. That was 777 00:37:39,880 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 1: the first time ever. Also had Win in Houston, a 778 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 1: singing gobless America. So you got such a big night 779 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: and you're gonna mute the audio because of lyrical contact 780 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:54,959 Speaker 1: of rap music, but all the who is you played 781 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,839 Speaker 1: with all the bad rical continent once again, I'm gonna 782 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 1: get the short and the stick. And that was the 783 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 1: best ring interest that I have seen to this day. 784 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:09,800 Speaker 1: Me met and red all dance and come over. You 785 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:13,880 Speaker 1: don't get better the audio because y'all were about the 786 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 1: lyrical content. What more can they say that that the 787 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,480 Speaker 1: movies y'all paying out from something, ain'tthing saying it's worse 788 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: on the movie you feeling. So they co complete there. 789 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 1: They completely wiped out the best ring interests of all times. 790 00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,080 Speaker 1: That if it would have been, if you could have 791 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 1: heard the lyrical Now people still loved them wrong, But 792 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 1: you could have heard it and really felt what we 793 00:38:36,239 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: felt energy. You would have felt the whole energy of it. 794 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: You missed the energy because they wouldn't play the lyrics 795 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:45,120 Speaker 1: the lyrical content over the TV screen. But and the 796 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 1: second my second favorite win though, was I didn't want 797 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 1: to put on the organ I think brand Jordan's and 798 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,200 Speaker 1: Nike head sponsored the fight for me important that I 799 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: came about the flow and I had the girls dancing. 800 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 1: I did one of my own on songs. That was 801 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: my second paper. You were a team Jordan, right, Yes, 802 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: what was that experience like being able to cross from 803 00:39:07,239 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 1: be recognized for your greatness and be a part of 804 00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 1: that brand Jack's part of that brand? Yeah, I know, 805 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 1: I was great. It was great. Great job. Wait where 806 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: y'all made him tell you something? Both of y'all to understand. 807 00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:18,120 Speaker 1: I wiped both of y'all for a long time too. 808 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: That's that man. I enjoyed love both of y'all. Y'all 809 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 1: got to know that man up most respectful both of you. So, 810 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 1: but yeah, it was for me. It was good because 811 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,359 Speaker 1: for me, Mike was one of the better basketball, better 812 00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: athletes visity over the live and for him to come 813 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 1: and represent and understand that I represented that to him 814 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,239 Speaker 1: as a boxer, but it was a big thing, you 815 00:39:39,320 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 1: feel a minute. So that was really huge and I 816 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: really respected him for that because at that time, boxes 817 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 1: really weren't getting no deals.

I said, you 850 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 1: told him right. So I was so into the crowd 851 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,040 Speaker 1: that night. There honestly everything going on in the ring. 852 00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,400 Speaker 1: But I also can hear people outside. You did what 853 00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,279 Speaker 1: I would do was or placed a couple of my 854 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: guys coach to the ring. The guys I knew, they 855 00:41:40,960 --> 00:41:43,439 Speaker 1: knew what my playing was and we all I would 856 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: listen to them talk because if I ever got to 857 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: a situation where I need anything, They knew what to say. 858 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,160 Speaker 1: They also kept me up in tune what the time was. 859 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:56,400 Speaker 1: So if I had my two guys, three guys, and 860 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: I knew exactly what was going on, that's all I 861 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: would really hear. But Lasy fight because everyone was a 862 00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: little smaller, I kind of can't hear everybody. That's crazy. 863 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,960 Speaker 1: I remember when you called Calza give me the breaks off. 864 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: It was I had no idea that if I was 865 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 1: gonna be that bad dog. I can't did because Calzack 866 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: is not a power puncher. He's a volume puncher. And 867 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,319 Speaker 1: time you go try to go out a guy as 868 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,600 Speaker 1: a volume punch with power, you're gonna get beat because 869 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 1: he gonna that long. That's just what he was. Yeah, 870 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,960 Speaker 1: and Jeff was at his height at at that time. 871 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,479 Speaker 1: But that one power shopping the left hook a gonna 872 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,440 Speaker 1: be enough and you ain't gonna hard to hit him 873 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 1: with it. You know the art of trash talking. All 874 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: the trash talk I learned from hummad Ali. But the 875 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: all the trash talking is like, you gotta know what 876 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: you're doing, whore, you're doing what you're doing with it? 877 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 1: Because I only gotta beat one time trash talking, and 878 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you who beat me trash talking. He 879 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 1: didn't beat me trash talking. But to me, the all 880 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,800 Speaker 1: the trash talking, everything that takes place before the five happens. 881 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:58,520 Speaker 1: So when I see you, if I know we're gonna fight, 882 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna start missing on you, understand me from a traytop. 883 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: Start that right then. If I'm gonna start playing a 884 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,879 Speaker 1: game with you, gonna start that right then. So when 885 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 1: I fought Joyese, he came to the press conference just 886 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 1: like a Pimp'll canna be a little bit y'all, like 887 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: he got me. Because I wouldn't prepare for that. I said, okay, okay, 888 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:25,080 Speaker 1: how much he is? He was six pounds. Yeah, So 889 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: he he got in with that. But the next day 890 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:31,279 Speaker 1: I prayed to get back at it. And next day 891 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 1: his coach came on the scale, came on the on 892 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: the podium what the skill was, and got right in 893 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,280 Speaker 1: my coach face talking stuff. You know, he was spending 894 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 1: his face too. And my coach is a retired, uh 895 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,759 Speaker 1: notary guy, coach Alter Merson. You're not gonna get in 896 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 1: his face and say nothing. So soon starting to get 897 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,120 Speaker 1: in his face all the stage on the goals to 898 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 1: the hospital. He goes, hey, I needed something to turn 899 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: the thing back around. Yes, yeah, I snuck off the stage, 900 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,680 Speaker 1: went around back, went back to what John rees was 901 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 1: because everybody was nervously But I went into a panic 902 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: because of the fight. I say, don't you worry about nothing, 903 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,280 Speaker 1: and nobody gonna touch you because you're blown to me tomorrow. 904 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 1: But I had to get him back and he had 905 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: got me the press cover with the little pimp, so 906 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 1: I had to go see that tune to put me 907 00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 1: back in charge again. So I was. But most people 908 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 1: I beat him talking to us, M Yeah, you can't 909 00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 1: teach that. You gotta have that. Yeah, A lot of 910 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:29,600 Speaker 1: people ain't that confident to talk ship. You know what 911 00:44:29,640 --> 00:44:31,400 Speaker 1: I'm saying. You gotta be willing to back it up. 912 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:34,800 Speaker 1: Preparation gets you confident to be able to talk, be prepared, 913 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: and you were to back it up. You know, I 914 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 1: can't back it up now. I already want to hear it. 915 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 1: When did you decide to get into music? Man A 916 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: big way? Back in the early nineties, I had a 917 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:49,520 Speaker 1: group called pg Ready PGS. I love music so much 918 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,040 Speaker 1: and music was so inspirational because for me I used 919 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 1: to go even after training. Sometimes I would go in 920 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: my room and turn my music on and work on 921 00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,440 Speaker 1: what I learned and training that particular days. So I 922 00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,439 Speaker 1: was able to put the two together in a sense 923 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,240 Speaker 1: what it made sense for me because I love music 924 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 1: with boxing. This rhythm to me. But also when you 925 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,440 Speaker 1: think about it, Mommed Ali said the bar high because 926 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:13,719 Speaker 1: he talked, he rapped. He just didn't do it the 927 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: music that was afloat like butterflies. Think I could beat 928 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: there to come with muhaddie. He did the rapping, he 929 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 1: didn't added music too. So if you're gonna take what 930 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 1: he took, what he did and raise it more, then 931 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: you gotta do more. So take that rapping here doing 932 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:32,440 Speaker 1: and put music behind, go all the way with That's 933 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 1: what I did. Remember, So men you did Suf made 934 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 1: millionail shout out the rung, but you were trashed on 935 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 1: that said, y'all go look it up. I think there 936 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,640 Speaker 1: was an old five or old four around that time. 937 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:50,759 Speaker 1: I was with the pacers around that time. Y'all must 938 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 1: have forgot. How did that come together? Me and Hodge 939 00:45:54,160 --> 00:45:57,439 Speaker 1: rapper Hodge wrappers rapping from the jo. Pretty pretty good, dude, 940 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: one of the guys I think should have been much 941 00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,680 Speaker 1: more us forever up in the year. But he has 942 00:46:01,719 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 1: a man unlike any other that I've seen when it 943 00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: comes to writing. So we kind of sat down, put 944 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 1: together some of my facts. I figured out how we're 945 00:46:09,800 --> 00:46:12,839 Speaker 1: gonna make it work, and the concept came they must 946 00:46:12,840 --> 00:46:17,080 Speaker 1: have forgot, you know.

It's a big statement, but you can't put 955 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:37,480 Speaker 1: it a lot of times where people make their mistaken 956 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 1: music if they think about themselves and stead think about 957 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: the consumers.

I want to give it up. 986 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 1: But I knew that for me, it seemed like if 987 00:48:20,360 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: I have stopped, I was just gonna go sit on 988 00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: the couch and get fat. And that's what I did 989 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 1: want to do. So I continue to go. Give me 990 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:28,959 Speaker 1: a reason getting shape, the reason to stay and shape 991 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 1: and take better care of myself. So you see so 992 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 1: many guys they stopped it, being like y'all themselves go, 993 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:37,799 Speaker 1: ye know, man, it's bad because y'all didn't killed somebody 994 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,680 Speaker 1: right now, because y'all still don't shape you fear me, 995 00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:41,759 Speaker 1: y'all don't let what God gave you just go to waste. 996 00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:43,879 Speaker 1: Y'all did take advantage of it. But so many people 997 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 1: I see slipped themselves go down here, And that's what 998 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 1: I also didn't want to do. So I knew that 999 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: if I want to get in shape, just go find 1000 00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: somebody I gotta getting shaped in because I ain't gon' 1001 00:48:54,040 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: not so yeah, of course probably can't everything so so 1002 00:49:04,960 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 1: but anyway, that's that's what that's what it was. And 1003 00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: to watch these guys do it nowadays, like it's getting 1004 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:14,120 Speaker 1: better now, But for a while there that the skill 1005 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:17,279 Speaker 1: levels going down, and I didn't see guys that really 1006 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:21,080 Speaker 1: were having skilled to really entertain and show people what 1007 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:24,759 Speaker 1: boxing me was about. So and really want nobody really 1008 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: fight nobody know. It's like, right now, we've got a 1009 00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:29,799 Speaker 1: lightweight division that's full of fighters, a lot of really 1010 00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:32,680 Speaker 1: good fighters, but you're looking at each other. No, you 1011 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So it's like fans haven't really 1012 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:36,400 Speaker 1: got to look at so you mean, well, let him 1013 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 1: see you beat somebody up. That's what I was doing. 1014 00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 1: Commentate now, I love commentations. The difference between that and 1015 00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 1: the ring. Commentating a little different because you don't have 1016 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 1: to really be in shape. Let your mind work and 1017 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:51,120 Speaker 1: tell your body. You know in your mind and your 1018 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: body gotta work. Now you buy your magic and work 1019 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,799 Speaker 1: your body, worry about nothing. So commentating I can tell 1020 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:59,839 Speaker 1: you what he's doing and what somebody should be doing 1021 00:49:59,880 --> 00:50:03,279 Speaker 1: to him, but they're not doing fighting. I ain't gonna 1022 00:50:03,320 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 1: tell you what You're gonna show you what he's doing 1023 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,319 Speaker 1: and show you what's what I should be doing. Too 1024 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 1: many do, so it's one thing to show us differently 1025 00:50:09,520 --> 00:50:12,200 Speaker 1: and talk about you enjoy a conversation. I love it 1026 00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 1: because it gives me an opportunity to tell people about 1027 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:19,840 Speaker 1: what I did from my from a final standpoint, not 1028 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:22,120 Speaker 1: for somebody who never did it before, but telling you 1029 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:25,239 Speaker 1: all of it. We talked about that before. It's the 1030 00:50:25,280 --> 00:50:27,239 Speaker 1: experience is the best teacher. If you don't if you're 1031 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:28,480 Speaker 1: not been in there, you don't know what the real 1032 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,279 Speaker 1: deal is because you've never been hit for you know 1033 00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: what I'm Saying's like, like Mike said, a lot of 1034 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:33,840 Speaker 1: people got a lot of game take your hit in 1035 00:50:33,840 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: the mount, remember, because they forgot that point in that book. 1036 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,239 Speaker 1: The book intended about that point. The book can't tell 1037 00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,279 Speaker 1: you that I have to hit you in the mouth, 1038 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:42,920 Speaker 1: then what you need to do. That book gonna tell 1039 00:50:42,920 --> 00:50:45,360 Speaker 1: you that you take that punch in the mouth for 1040 00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:48,480 Speaker 1: you to learn it. And that's what people miss. In commentary, 1041 00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 1: I was thinking when we found out we were gonna 1042 00:50:52,360 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 1: have you as a guest, I was thinking, obviously very 1043 00:50:55,800 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 1: skilled tactician, but also that the style you fought, if 1044 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 1: how well that would translate to social media these days? 1045 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 1: What is the power of social media and what kind 1046 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,880 Speaker 1: of You're already a monster, but could you imagine what 1047 00:51:10,000 --> 00:51:12,000 Speaker 1: he was doing. It was on social media. It would 1048 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:16,839 Speaker 1: be insane knockouts, everything going viral. Nobody never seen people 1049 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:19,160 Speaker 1: do the things. That's what I want your hand, how 1050 00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 1: you beat? I mean, it was just what you did 1051 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 1: at the TAVA. He's gonna try to do it. They 1052 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 1: can't do it, better to me to knock them down 1053 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:33,040 Speaker 1: Tony to. Yeah. So it's like people don't understand. And 1054 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:35,759 Speaker 1: like I tell people this one. You know, one of 1055 00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 1: my favorite point guards is Chris Paul. And reason I 1056 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,000 Speaker 1: like Chris Paul because you see these guys do all 1057 00:51:42,080 --> 00:51:43,879 Speaker 1: this and one stuff on the court against these guys 1058 00:51:43,880 --> 00:51:46,879 Speaker 1: don't play basketball. You see Chris Paul do enter team 1059 00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:48,920 Speaker 1: get the best of the best. You fear me shout out. 1060 00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 1: He's doing things that people get the best playing right now. 1061 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:57,280 Speaker 1: He doing it bringing out in game cap in the payoffs. 1062 00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:00,719 Speaker 1: He don't kill so your family. So for a person 1063 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:05,080 Speaker 1: to be that entertaining at that time, you don't do that. Then, 1064 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,279 Speaker 1: like you see guys do stuff in the gym, but 1065 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:08,839 Speaker 1: they're not gonna do that in a real fight. They're 1066 00:52:08,840 --> 00:52:11,880 Speaker 1: afraid to try. This dude doing these things and gags 1067 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 1: and playoff games, you feel DA's what means something. If 1068 00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:18,200 Speaker 1: you can't do it, then then already killed you can 1069 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 1: do it because you can't do it when it counts 1070 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 1: to make these people be that whoa, they already killed you. 1071 00:52:23,600 --> 00:52:26,479 Speaker 1: This dude do it in the game. He's just playing 1072 00:52:26,520 --> 00:52:28,759 Speaker 1: what he do it in the game. And that means 1073 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 1: something me because for me, my goal was when I 1074 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: watched my Allie and Sugary Leonard. These guys entertained you. 1075 00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: Whether with the foot speed or the hand speed or 1076 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,880 Speaker 1: even the head movement, they entertained you. So I can't 1077 00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:48,239 Speaker 1: be an entertainer and take you further than they took you. 1078 00:52:48,360 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 1: Then why my boxing. I don't want to just be 1079 00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:53,759 Speaker 1: another boxer. I want to be a guy that they said, 1080 00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:55,640 Speaker 1: or we're fighting, everybody put everything that we gotta go 1081 00:52:55,680 --> 00:52:57,720 Speaker 1: see what fighting. Don't know what world might do tonight. 1082 00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:01,279 Speaker 1: That's how I was feeling. That's which is what I'm 1083 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 1: trying to tell you that those other guys they can't 1084 00:53:03,760 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 1: do that. They make it look and bet me one night, 1085 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: but they can't hold that crowd like I can't. I 1086 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 1: get it. They cried and care who I was fighting. 1087 00:53:10,480 --> 00:53:13,320 Speaker 1: They come to see because they know we're gonna do 1088 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:16,480 Speaker 1: something that we're not gonna forgive. Right, We're gonna give 1089 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:21,560 Speaker 1: us a moment somewhere. We're gonna be right.

Nobody felt like it was his two uncles 1093 00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:33,240 Speaker 1: fight at the barbecue. But to me, it was seeming 1094 00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:35,399 Speaker 1: like my two favorite boxes in the world are about 1095 00:53:35,400 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 1: to fight. Like I'm excited about the idea, but I'm 1096 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 1: just like, I don't want to see these motherucker's hurt 1097 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 1: each other.

But anyway, he was 1175 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: a good basketball player. He always talked and always talking, 1176 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 1: always talk. So we set up a select to gain 1177 00:58:00,320 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 1: HPO article, the late great Article. One of my favorite 1178 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 1: people I've ever met. He made my HBO tenure way 1179 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 1: better than el could have been because he was an 1180 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 1: angel of HBO starters as a mayor, room dude and 1181 00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 1: worked were all well twin executive black dude Artor Curry 1182 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 1: died probably ten twelve years ago, but he was one 1183 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,280 Speaker 1: of my favorite people of all time. So anyway, Arty 1184 00:58:24,440 --> 00:58:28,680 Speaker 1: was in charge of relationships. In relationship between HPU and 1185 00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,160 Speaker 1: the fighters. He did the human relations part. So he 1186 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:33,840 Speaker 1: set the game up between me and Sweep. Three people 1187 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,760 Speaker 1: on this team the post of colasp All paid for 1188 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 1: the thing, and h we got Lon. So in the 1189 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 1: arena data they they he had like I said he 1190 00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:45,560 Speaker 1: had like he had pretty much a Division one team 1191 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:48,640 Speaker 1: and I got a jew coal team. Know what I'm saying, 1192 00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 1: But I mean, my guys probably play Boy together because 1193 00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:53,560 Speaker 1: we played in the city league. So his guys they 1194 00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 1: just all could play. But they play together as much 1195 00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 1: as we did, I don't think. So. They led the 1196 00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,560 Speaker 1: game for like three quarters and last quarter got about 1197 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:04,480 Speaker 1: three minute stuft to go, they were still they let 1198 00:59:04,560 --> 00:59:07,600 Speaker 1: us but like fifteen for the whole game because they 1199 00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 1: complete and sweet people in bed either So, but the 1200 00:59:10,960 --> 00:59:13,240 Speaker 1: last quarter my team were known come back in the 1201 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Last quarter they left big Ail open and 1202 00:59:17,760 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 1: big people don't know big Al, but Bigail was a 1203 00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 1: little short. But I thought, you know, big Ail was 1204 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 1: kind of gott ahead of shot that he could have 1205 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:27,920 Speaker 1: been head. He had the right guys, he could have 1206 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:29,920 Speaker 1: made it to leave because the dude could shoot the 1207 00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: ball better than not people see walking in the face 1208 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 1: of the earth today and we all know people at 1209 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 1: home like that kind of guys, you know. So he 1210 00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: came down and left open. He hit one three they 1211 00:59:42,160 --> 00:59:44,400 Speaker 1: cannot miss. He came but down the left over here 1212 00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:48,760 Speaker 1: another three, they cannot miss. The came down again. I said, 1213 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 1: they left over third time. I gave to him here 1214 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: another three. That's nine points. And from now we just 1215 00:59:54,320 --> 00:59:57,240 Speaker 1: put both dog. So we came at the last three 1216 00:59:57,280 --> 00:59:59,040 Speaker 1: minutes of the game and we won the game. But 1217 00:59:59,120 --> 01:00:01,000 Speaker 1: it was a great game. He had a better team 1218 01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 1: than I had, but my team had played together more. 1219 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,960 Speaker 1: Yeah a game, mad game defth handed bright hands for 1220 01:00:07,000 --> 01:00:09,560 Speaker 1: people do it all. Yeah, as we be ever real game. 1221 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:13,800 Speaker 1: We had Dion Sanders and he once told us about 1222 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 1: the day he played football and then flew that later 1223 01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,760 Speaker 1: night and played baseball. You played basketball during the day 1224 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 1: and far that night talk to us about that. Well. 1225 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:29,000 Speaker 1: I was seeing Dan the Bowl Jackson do that. I 1226 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:30,760 Speaker 1: was like, no, people not going to expect that a 1227 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:36,080 Speaker 1: boxer can do two things and never thought a box 1228 01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:39,600 Speaker 1: can do that, but got number jack. Every day i'm training, 1229 01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 1: I'm sneading off playing basketball anywhere trained. So I'm like, 1230 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:44,920 Speaker 1: I know I can do this because I do this 1231 01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:48,240 Speaker 1: every day. I grew up doing this, So how can 1232 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:50,120 Speaker 1: I not do that? You feel me. It's gonna look 1233 01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 1: strange to people, but this is what I do. If 1234 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 1: they if the gym boxing. I'm hoping and I hope 1235 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 1: every single day you feel min is that this is 1236 01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:01,120 Speaker 1: nothing my body or not you too, But to put 1237 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:04,480 Speaker 1: on the stage they're gonna say, no, you don't do that. Well, 1238 01:01:04,560 --> 01:01:07,959 Speaker 1: since I'm not with big tample Motors and my own guy, 1239 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:12,440 Speaker 1: I can do it. So I went in. Now, what 1240 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 1: was impressive, by the law was the guy fought Eric Lucas. 1241 01:01:17,560 --> 01:01:20,160 Speaker 1: After that he went on to become the WC Super 1242 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,520 Speaker 1: Theweight champion and he had a title for three years 1243 01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:27,240 Speaker 1: after that fight. So I ain't fighting on garbage, you 1244 01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:32,360 Speaker 1: understand me. So I'm just thinking, you know, even watching 1245 01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: you know Darren Williams fight, how you gotta be in 1246 01:01:34,600 --> 01:01:38,000 Speaker 1: shape to be a boxer to go play basketball.

I like Katie Yan is 1258 01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 1: definitely different. Animal, like John Morant now he's coming on 1259 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 1: the scene, you know, like Devin Booker. You know, I 1260 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 1: like a lot of guys, know what. I like a 1261 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 1: lot of killers. I like guys killer the Metal.

That's what I like, 1268 01:02:38,680 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? So who you uh? The 1269 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 1: only prediction for the finals? Um, I don't know. Lek's 1270 01:02:45,280 --> 01:02:47,720 Speaker 1: gonna be hard to beat them because if they can 1271 01:02:47,760 --> 01:02:52,600 Speaker 1: get Devil calls Westbrook when got in the right direction here, animal, 1272 01:02:53,880 --> 01:02:56,120 Speaker 1: he played hard of it, but out they just just 1273 01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 1: gotta keep him under control. But when you're getting under control, 1274 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:00,960 Speaker 1: he's something to deal with a lot of I'm a 1275 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,640 Speaker 1: westro fan too because of how hard to play, saying 1276 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 1: some taking get off offside, off balance a live bit, 1277 01:03:07,000 --> 01:03:10,640 Speaker 1: but his intent is always good and I love his intent. Now, 1278 01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:13,640 Speaker 1: if you can take a Lebron who can help gut 1279 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 1: him and control them a little bit, and Ady can 1280 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:19,640 Speaker 1: be healthy.

I'm prosingles 1285 01:03:31,520 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 1: is an issue because he's so tall. But we can 1286 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:36,680 Speaker 1: do it all, I'm saying, and so having them too, 1287 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: And I said, Jayden Bronson ain't bad.

It 1296 01:04:00,400 --> 01:04:03,280 Speaker 1: was different for me because it was a whole movie. 1297 01:04:03,360 --> 01:04:06,280 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, rich Adriana movie, you do everything that. 1298 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:08,520 Speaker 1: God has been so good to me. Man, I just 1299 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:10,600 Speaker 1: had to be thankful to God if everything's ever given me, 1300 01:04:10,680 --> 01:04:12,840 Speaker 1: because I never thought I would be a rap or 1301 01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 1: basketball player, none of that in the movie.

And I thought I 1304 01:04:22,200 --> 01:04:23,800 Speaker 1: got what I was going on because of my faith 1305 01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:25,920 Speaker 1: in my trust and God. He gave me so much 1306 01:04:26,000 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 1: that I mean, I never thought of being the Heavway 1307 01:04:27,800 --> 01:04:29,320 Speaker 1: Chamber the world. You know what I'm saying. When I 1308 01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:32,800 Speaker 1: won my first national tournament.

You got a chance to work on Creek too. 1317 01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 1: Thoughts about rebooting that starting Mic could be Jordan, that 1318 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:03,440 Speaker 1: that was pretty good, might could be Jordan's a really 1319 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:05,600 Speaker 1: good job in the movie. Actually I didn't know they 1320 01:05:05,720 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 1: had me. I said to go get in the next one. 1321 01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:11,720 Speaker 1: But because you ain't gotta fight coming up February fifth, 1322 01:05:12,160 --> 01:05:14,480 Speaker 1: so I gotta miss to the film dates. I'm trying 1323 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,040 Speaker 1: to see now that they can redo it, but if not, 1324 01:05:16,240 --> 01:05:18,160 Speaker 1: then I might miss it. But the guy, I think 1325 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:21,480 Speaker 1: they gotta create three coming up. And I was supposed 1326 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 1: to go be a commentating out and I love the movies. 1327 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 1: I love acting, although being a commentary doesn't require much 1328 01:05:27,920 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 1: acting because it's what I do for real, so but 1329 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 1: it still be good. You know you're back. I've seen 1330 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,840 Speaker 1: the fight was the last fight. What you think you 1331 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:38,880 Speaker 1: need to switch up? What? You just gotta quit being 1332 01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:41,400 Speaker 1: so much of a banger and use this a little 1333 01:05:41,400 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 1: bit more because this will takeular father needs will If 1334 01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:46,920 Speaker 1: you use this to control these, you can go a 1335 01:05:46,960 --> 01:05:49,080 Speaker 1: lot of further than you use this to control these. 1336 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:52,240 Speaker 1: He'd been fighting me up this control needs, and I'm 1337 01:05:52,280 --> 01:05:54,720 Speaker 1: trying to get into use this to control these, not this. 1338 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:56,520 Speaker 1: I don't even put you on the spot. But do 1339 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 1: you think his father is kind of doing what? You 1340 01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:01,560 Speaker 1: know I'm and was father hindering him a little bit? 1341 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 1: I don't know. His father is actually a lot of 1342 01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,400 Speaker 1: things out of his way. And he talked to him, 1343 01:06:05,440 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 1: but he stays out of his weight. I think for 1344 01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:09,280 Speaker 1: a while he may have been in a little bit more, 1345 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,360 Speaker 1: but I think they realized that that's not the right 1346 01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:12,680 Speaker 1: way for them, so he got out. And I think 1347 01:06:12,720 --> 01:06:15,480 Speaker 1: that's why he employed me because he knows that I know. 1348 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:20,400 Speaker 1: But like he said, some things, you're gonna be tearing 1349 01:06:20,440 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 1: my son better than I am because me being around 1350 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,280 Speaker 1: me and his father, they're so long. It's different. The 1351 01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:27,760 Speaker 1: same with my son myself at basketball. But I can't 1352 01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 1: tell you now. I need to call when y'all tell, 1353 01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:31,440 Speaker 1: because I can't tepe. I'm gonna put you on the 1354 01:06:31,440 --> 01:06:33,560 Speaker 1: spot again. Yeah, you would have stopped to fight if 1355 01:06:33,560 --> 01:06:38,280 Speaker 1: you was sean part of popson. No right, No, A 1356 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,440 Speaker 1: lot of people say that I want to stop, you know, 1357 01:06:41,280 --> 01:06:44,520 Speaker 1: because that's why I said, just a fine line between 1358 01:06:44,640 --> 01:06:48,200 Speaker 1: that and he I can say, you know, you can 1359 01:06:48,200 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 1: say I'm worried about my son, but when it comes 1360 01:06:50,400 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 1: to that, you gotta let him be the man. You 1361 01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:54,960 Speaker 1: can't go out there and protect together and be a 1362 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: man because he go out like he want to go out, 1363 01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,640 Speaker 1: and no excuse, you got a little go like like 1364 01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:01,160 Speaker 1: you wanted to go out. It might not be what 1365 01:07:01,240 --> 01:07:03,160 Speaker 1: he chose to do. He made it look like he 1366 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:07,240 Speaker 1: made it about himself. The Pole's that's why I chapped you, 1367 01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:09,560 Speaker 1: because if I had leave because but God showed me 1368 01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:11,960 Speaker 1: that some of those guys don't see it to this 1369 01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,560 Speaker 1: too late. That's why I asked that question of which 1370 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:15,920 Speaker 1: fight the president that you see a lot of your 1371 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:21,280 Speaker 1: stuff in bootsings. You've seen Boots fight Boots, Boots a 1372 01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,280 Speaker 1: bad boy. Boot shows a lot of my stuff. I 1373 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:24,960 Speaker 1: see it quite a few guys.

I see myself on a lot of fighters 1377 01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 1: because a lot of guys do a lot of things 1378 01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:38,800 Speaker 1: that they learned from watching me. Um. But you know, 1379 01:07:40,000 --> 01:07:42,520 Speaker 1: Carnello is a bad dude here. You might stop, but 1380 01:07:42,600 --> 01:07:45,439 Speaker 1: you're a bad dude. You think you think he really 1381 01:07:45,920 --> 01:07:50,200 Speaker 1: that that? He that rows that us. A lot of 1382 01:07:50,240 --> 01:07:52,440 Speaker 1: people have got Cannello on the Is he really that? 1383 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 1: Is he that what you said? He that? I think 1384 01:07:56,560 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 1: he is that? But in my pain, he still got 1385 01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: a little bit to prove because he's being some really 1386 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,360 Speaker 1: good father beating triples. You was a big thing, but 1387 01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: he still got a little bit more. He has a 1388 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:11,080 Speaker 1: little bit more to go because he got to be 1389 01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:15,000 Speaker 1: the guy that has that has some of the qualities 1390 01:08:15,040 --> 01:08:18,880 Speaker 1: and credibilities that flow aheads. If Charlot No, it's gonna 1391 01:08:18,920 --> 01:08:20,640 Speaker 1: not gonna be gonna to beat Yallo, but that's not 1392 01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,519 Speaker 1: gonna do it because we're going to see him against 1393 01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:26,519 Speaker 1: a little bit stick a guy. Give me example, I 1394 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:32,200 Speaker 1: gotta boo boo boo boo boooo, gonna be Himo, don't 1395 01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 1: go and box traditional boobo fight with smarts because man 1396 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Junior fight with the smarts a different cult for him. 1397 01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 1: So people like that is who you want to see 1398 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 1: in fight because we know what we could do against 1399 01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:44,720 Speaker 1: guy the brawls and that that's gonna go out and 1400 01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,920 Speaker 1: go to the toe. He can handle that. But that's 1401 01:08:46,960 --> 01:08:50,160 Speaker 1: not how Floyd beat him. So like the la getting 1402 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:52,560 Speaker 1: my hard time because he boxed him with this, So 1403 01:08:52,880 --> 01:08:55,160 Speaker 1: we gotta see him fight him by the boxes with 1404 01:08:55,280 --> 01:08:58,439 Speaker 1: this and seem dominate that person. Then he'd be what 1405 01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:00,360 Speaker 1: I want to see him be, which I'm not saying can't. 1406 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: So it's like people get so sensitive nowadays because stuff 1407 01:09:06,280 --> 01:09:09,719 Speaker 1: that you say. But like I was trying to tell people. 1408 01:09:09,840 --> 01:09:13,640 Speaker 1: When Errol Spans fought Sean Porter, I wasn't saying that 1409 01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:17,880 Speaker 1: that's gonna guarantee that Erl Spence can be called can 1410 01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 1: be Aerospences. No, I said, Sean Porter, what the first 1411 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:26,320 Speaker 1: dude that's gonna show us what el Spences. They didn't 1412 01:09:26,320 --> 01:09:28,439 Speaker 1: say that Aerospence didn't have the goods. I never said that. 1413 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:31,320 Speaker 1: I just said, Sean Porter's the first dude they're gonna 1414 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:33,600 Speaker 1: show us if he really got the goods. And he 1415 01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:36,720 Speaker 1: did that knockdown, that fact was either or sure it 1416 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 1: might have been winning. But once he knocked, now he took. 1417 01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:41,680 Speaker 1: He took over. So it showed that he doesn't have 1418 01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:44,920 Speaker 1: the goods to make me even more now I want 1419 01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:48,080 Speaker 1: to see him and tears cough in the m But 1420 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:50,240 Speaker 1: this did not get in that. But I didn't say 1421 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 1: who I thought when I still don't know who it's 1422 01:09:52,080 --> 01:09:54,639 Speaker 1: just because I think that I don't mean that either. 1423 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:58,519 Speaker 1: But I did see him show against Sean Porter that 1424 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:00,719 Speaker 1: he didn't have a dog in mean that he could 1425 01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 1: put off put it off against a top nice guy 1426 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:06,080 Speaker 1: called Seanport is one of the guys right there at 1427 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:09,040 Speaker 1: the threshold of being great. You feel me. So you 1428 01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:11,599 Speaker 1: beat him? Now you get Now I got a little 1429 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:14,160 Speaker 1: bit more comfortent than you and your efforts against Cofor 1430 01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 1: that caff For beat Porter a little bit worse than 1431 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:21,719 Speaker 1: you did. Just done it, Porter, Porter. But styles also 1432 01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:24,400 Speaker 1: make fights. That still don't mean that Corford can beat you. 1433 01:10:24,880 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: But right now Corfor has the edge because I've seen 1434 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 1: Cofford more so and I've seen against a few more different, 1435 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:36,479 Speaker 1: different caliberns of opposition that I see you against. I 1436 01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:38,920 Speaker 1: was saying that you can't beat Confer. I'll just say 1437 01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 1: that I've seen Corford more and against more different known 1438 01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:45,160 Speaker 1: competition than I see him against. They took out he 1439 01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:47,800 Speaker 1: don't like yours. Come on, man, you know how they do. 1440 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:49,559 Speaker 1: That's what they're gonna do. You know what I'm saying 1441 01:10:49,560 --> 01:10:52,160 Speaker 1: that shot. I didn't say that. I see that this 1442 01:10:52,320 --> 01:10:55,320 Speaker 1: dude will be the first real opposition opposition that we 1443 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 1: see that we can judge them afoot. And it was 1444 01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:59,599 Speaker 1: because it was a hell of a fight until they 1445 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,760 Speaker 1: when you dropped me, he took over. But it was 1446 01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:05,920 Speaker 1: a good damn fight. Your feeling so Davis, bad dude, 1447 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:08,760 Speaker 1: Bad dude. See what I like about Tank is tain't 1448 01:11:08,800 --> 01:11:11,879 Speaker 1: bring something different? You know, back in the days, everybody 1449 01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:14,439 Speaker 1: has something. Homedy he was a move a box of 1450 01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:17,839 Speaker 1: George was a puncher. Earnest Stables was a puncher. Everybody 1451 01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:21,120 Speaker 1: has something about to take their Holmes had a jail Mike. 1452 01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 1: We've had over here and right. You know what I'm saying, 1453 01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:26,360 Speaker 1: everybody has something. That division now is full and Tank 1454 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 1: having to be the knockout guy of the division, he 1455 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:30,760 Speaker 1: didn't want it with the main knockout power. I see 1456 01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,439 Speaker 1: it has two, but tin't got the real knockout power. 1457 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,400 Speaker 1: That like, if Tank hit when I'm cleaning you, they're 1458 01:11:36,439 --> 01:11:38,759 Speaker 1: gonna have a proper So it's like, I like Tank, 1459 01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:43,479 Speaker 1: uh every now then I think he just I think 1460 01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,280 Speaker 1: when he knows he can beat somebody, he probably don't 1461 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,599 Speaker 1: take it, don't lock in his hard But I think 1462 01:11:47,640 --> 01:11:51,560 Speaker 1: when they bring challenges, he locks in calls competition and 1463 01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:54,640 Speaker 1: he got to be careful that he was really doing that. 1464 01:11:55,240 --> 01:11:57,600 Speaker 1: So you gotta be careful of that because if you 1465 01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,719 Speaker 1: come in and think somebody is not at your level, 1466 01:12:00,040 --> 01:12:01,720 Speaker 1: you and estimate him, it can get your beat. So 1467 01:12:01,800 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 1: I just don't think. I think you gotta be careful 1468 01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:05,800 Speaker 1: of Other than that, Tanks are really good fighter tanks 1469 01:12:05,840 --> 01:12:08,519 Speaker 1: are good fighter. Uh, it's a lot of guys that 1470 01:12:08,600 --> 01:12:13,519 Speaker 1: we class. For Garcia Lopez, do this, beat Lopez, Loma Um, 1471 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:17,560 Speaker 1: young guy, Devin hanging Man. So many good guys that 1472 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 1: we class. But we need to see him fight each 1473 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 1: other so we can figure out who to cream on 1474 01:12:21,320 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 1: the carp good, very good guy, very smart guy. Wins 1475 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 1: more with smartness than he does with skill. He uses 1476 01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:31,799 Speaker 1: his knowledge, his size, he takes advantage of his size. 1477 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,400 Speaker 1: And I liked it about Tyson Fur and he's not 1478 01:12:34,439 --> 01:12:36,960 Speaker 1: afraid to fight nobody. The only thing I tell people, 1479 01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 1: like I said, I don't want to see him a 1480 01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:42,080 Speaker 1: music fight. Right now, we're going to heavy division is music. 1481 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:46,040 Speaker 1: And Joshua was a great fight Fury, And while it 1482 01:12:46,120 --> 01:12:48,880 Speaker 1: wasn't even better fight for the fans, let's keep the 1483 01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:51,559 Speaker 1: fans into the heavway division right now. If you put 1484 01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:56,320 Speaker 1: us against against Fury, a lot of people think the 1485 01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:59,080 Speaker 1: big the better big big man beats the better small man, 1486 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:03,120 Speaker 1: and so we leaned toward Fury. But either guy could 1487 01:13:03,120 --> 01:13:05,639 Speaker 1: win the fight. But neither guy's a real knockout puncher, 1488 01:13:06,479 --> 01:13:08,479 Speaker 1: and right now in headways, we want to see knockouts, 1489 01:13:09,160 --> 01:13:11,800 Speaker 1: or at least knockdowns, you know what I'm saying, or 1490 01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:13,960 Speaker 1: at least somebody get hurt somebody or know that somebody 1491 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,560 Speaker 1: can knock somebody in any given tags Wilder, that's a 1492 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:21,559 Speaker 1: good fight. We love that kind of fight. Somebody somebody 1493 01:13:21,920 --> 01:13:24,840 Speaker 1: that's that way to happen, that's not waiting to happen. 1494 01:13:25,080 --> 01:13:27,400 Speaker 1: Those kind of fights, those a kind of fight we 1495 01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:29,519 Speaker 1: want to see. If you don't come from you understand 1496 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:31,680 Speaker 1: that that's what we want. We know that's like that 1497 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:35,000 Speaker 1: waiting to happen. That's that's what we really want to 1498 01:13:35,000 --> 01:13:37,080 Speaker 1: see in the headweight division. That's what we want to see. 1499 01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:40,640 Speaker 1: Thoughts on Jake Paul me, you gotta get a man 1500 01:13:40,720 --> 01:13:42,679 Speaker 1: of credit. You know, he came out there some beautiful things. 1501 01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:44,560 Speaker 1: He showed what you can do with social media. He 1502 01:13:44,640 --> 01:13:47,400 Speaker 1: showed you the effects that social media can have on sport. 1503 01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:50,640 Speaker 1: And you know he tries hard. He works hard as 1504 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:55,439 Speaker 1: a boxer. I mean for a guy that's not didn't 1505 01:13:55,439 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 1: start his career as a boxer. He given the hill 1506 01:13:58,400 --> 01:13:59,840 Speaker 1: because you're making more one of the most of them 1507 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:02,800 Speaker 1: can the smart way. He's you. He's showing you what 1508 01:14:02,960 --> 01:14:05,080 Speaker 1: you can do if you calask two. The God has 1509 01:14:05,120 --> 01:14:09,439 Speaker 1: given you. Now, he's a perfect example every every boxer 1510 01:14:09,439 --> 01:14:12,600 Speaker 1: should market themselves. He's a perfect example. So if you 1511 01:14:12,680 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 1: hate on him some roles, you need to be learning 1512 01:14:14,880 --> 01:14:17,479 Speaker 1: from him. Don't hate the game he play. Learn from 1513 01:14:17,520 --> 01:14:20,000 Speaker 1: him because he's doing some good. Look how much money 1514 01:14:20,080 --> 01:14:23,320 Speaker 1: making any beating others? Two and he's not really he 1515 01:14:23,400 --> 01:14:25,360 Speaker 1: didn't start the thing as a boxer. Look what are 1516 01:14:25,360 --> 01:14:29,760 Speaker 1: you're doing? Show time?

You look at him around one, between around one, 1528 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 1: around two, and go look at between around fourteen, around fifteen, 1529 01:15:12,720 --> 01:15:17,040 Speaker 1: he looks identic clar the same identical.

I took all 1549 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:21,680 Speaker 1: of that in packages. That's not taste so good. I 1550 01:16:21,760 --> 01:16:24,080 Speaker 1: took all that and all I took all that in package. 1551 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:27,960 Speaker 1: You take twelve grades and you take what makes them great, 1552 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:31,479 Speaker 1: and you put all that in one person cannot be great. 1553 01:16:32,439 --> 01:16:35,800 Speaker 1: You understand me. I mean, I probably shouldn't say that 1554 01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:39,840 Speaker 1: because y'all know it's better me too, though, But it 1555 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:42,400 Speaker 1: takes depth current And you said, Reggie Miller with heimples, 1556 01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:48,360 Speaker 1: m hm, shoot the damn all and they just didn't 1557 01:16:48,360 --> 01:16:50,840 Speaker 1: have a hempn steff.

And because he's doing it so well now, 1560 01:16:57,400 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 1: he probably better shoot him because of the conference that 1561 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:01,840 Speaker 1: goes with But he basically if you look at the 1562 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,120 Speaker 1: basic route when he really is he really he really 1563 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:07,759 Speaker 1: is a Miller type shooter who was a great shooter. 1564 01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:12,400 Speaker 1: But with him, you understand me, you gotta learn how 1565 01:17:12,439 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 1: to take what's happening now and how you elevate them. 1566 01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:17,479 Speaker 1: That's what makes you better, that's what makes you great. 1567 01:17:17,680 --> 01:17:21,280 Speaker 1: If you take a great I mean chocolate tito, he 1568 01:17:21,560 --> 01:17:25,200 Speaker 1: followed the great late grade at Alexes.

Lightweights get to 1602 01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:17,160 Speaker 1: get on a fight. Yeah, but I would like to 1603 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:20,120 Speaker 1: see Whyden Wild and uh Joshua fight just because we 1604 01:19:20,200 --> 01:19:22,479 Speaker 1: always want to see it and they got bad blood exactly. 1605 01:19:22,600 --> 01:19:24,519 Speaker 1: I would definitely to see that fight.
