I said, he must be better now because you're his doctor. Because my father can fix anything. My father, nothing got in the way of the truth. Nothing. Nothing. Even blowing his son's bubble. Matter of factly, he said to me, no, he's not going to get better. He's going to die. And, um, So as a nine-year-old kid, you're a kid, you're selfish. Not in a bad way, but you want what you want.

And Custer's only reason to have tomorrow was to have another heavyweight champ.
