I'm always looking to peak on fight day, not like a peak plateau format that a lot of people go by.

So...

I'd say usually, let's say we weigh in on Friday.

That Tuesday, I'm around 214.

Oh, okay.

213, something like that.

Oh, that's nice.

And then, you know, those last days is kind of like water load, proteins and fats only.

That's a nice cut.

I sit in the sauna no matter what, like an hour, maybe.

Like my weight cut this time took, I hit mitts for an hour and a half.

I laid down in a sauna blanket and I was on weight.

Like I, so it was like under two hours for me to be on.

Uh, I still felt it.

Uh, I still felt it a bit on fight day, but there was nothing that was going to like my mind for like through this camp, through this fight, man, like I'm so happy for everything that I went through.

Honestly, like there was nothing that was going to take away like my shine or my joy or my feeling of like being ready, being prepared.

Um, it was, it was a battle with my mind and every day I had to make a choice to like

To just be better, to be bigger, to be happy, to just embrace everything.

Everything's just been about embracing the obstacles that come.

I'd say everything seems very different now.
