Yeah, but before that it was just doors locked.

We were ready to get home.

But, yeah, it was just – it's still – even now talking about it, it's like, fuck, it's crazy, you know.

Yeah, it took a bit to really sink in.

You know, like it was just something that –

I remember when I was 13 years old, I was boxing for a year.

I parked my ass on the bench.

I told mom, I was like, I'm going to be a world champion.

I promise you I will.

And to be able to do it all was just phenomenal.

It really was.

It's a childhood dream and makes every sacrifice all worth it, really.

Oh, actually, yeah, yeah, no, yeah.

It was only two years ago I won.

Oh, it's unbelievable, man.

It just shows, you know, what hard work can get you.

You know, my wife was over there to experience it and it was phenomenal.

It really was.

Um, look, it's, it's crazy to be in the same talks as a legend, Jeff Fennec, you know, and to have the opportunity to be able to break a 39 year drought to be the second born Aussie champion, dual world champion, multiple weight divisions is, is crazy, but.

It's still, you know, like, yeah, I still pinch myself moments now.
