All right, guys, we got the crazy Hawaiian here. One of the best slappers of all time. Let's go. Thank you. I appreciate that entrance right there. No one introduced me as one of the best of all time. I think you're on the Mount Rushmore right now. Oh, for sure. For sure. That's a good question. If it was a question, but Mount Rushmore. Top four. Top four.

You've been at it for longer than most people too, right? I've been doing it before COVID. Ron, Beta, Bada, Wolverine. Me and him started at the same exact date. Wow. Yeah. It was a dive bar in Branson, Missouri. Oh, okay. Yeah. I thought you were going to say the Russian League.

I went to the Russian... Well... I dethroned one of their kings, and then they all just kind of flew back home. Really? Yeah.

You fought him twice, right? Yeah. So it's got to be Wolverine, me, I mean, American, Mount Rushmore, so. Yeah. I don't know. The other two is kind of a toss-up. It's such a new sport. Yeah, it's new. We'll see. Time will tell, I think. Time will tell, but we ain't going nowhere. If you haven't been there in person, you wouldn't know.

How much of that is genetic, the chin strength versus training? A lot. I would say 75% of it, at least. Because there's a lot of Hawaiians coming in on it, you know? Yeah.
