I need to know, you know, I'm 28 now.

I have a, have a young, young son and I'm trying to lead by a good example, not by having people think that I'm some sort of person that they're really pushing for.

Yeah, you know, I think anything.

Anything like that.

Anything new in your life will change your mindset if you're really focusing on growth.

You know, I have a good, wise young man.

You know, he says that you have to go through it or grow through it.

And with that, that comes with a lot of responsibilities.

You know, so...

That's why my whole thing is make boxing great again, trying to find other ways to inspire.

I think that's something that I learned from that Mamba mentality is inspiring.

Right.

No, no.

I use boxing as a tool to let others know that we're just like them.

We're just trying to show them that there's other ways to get out of it.

interesting yeah we're just like them i'm just like you that's why i never changed my teeth like i didn't get veneers i didn't get veneers i didn't do the whole thing i kept myself as as um unique as i was when i was that young young kid you know try to keep it like that you know some people have a thing where they want to fake it till they make it but i'm like that i'll make it then i'll just leave yeah you know some people switch up once they start getting the the attention too

I don't like that.

I don't like that at all, at all.

You know, I think that it's about, look what happened.

Prime example, there's so many, how can I say, moguls or so many people around the world that we've idolized or looked up to.
