We hit it off immediately.

Yeah.

He really... I needed somebody to kind of engrave it in me.

With wrestling, I had my father.

I had the University of Minnesota.

I had a lot of good people around me kind of like say, hey...

This is how we're going to do it.

This is where you need to go.

And this is how you're going to this is how it's going to happen.

And when I saw John, I saw that drive of like, damn, you know, this guy's winning and people get close, but they can't get past him.

And why is that?

So I really sat back and watched his mental and like.

How he went about a lot of things, how he talked to people, how he greeted people, how he walked, how he punched, maybe how he looked when he was in the pocket, when he needed to get out, when he rested his hands.

And I saw everything.

And I was like, wow, like, man, this guy's a superstar, super superstar.

And we all know that.

And people know that for a long time now.

But I really saw him and I was like, damn, I want to be that.

And that's what kind of that's what flipped my switch right there.

It's crazy.
