Speaker 1: Morning.
Speaker 2: Everybody is the j n V.
Speaker 3: Cholamine the guy. We are the breakfast Club. You got
Speaker 3: a special guest in the.
Speaker 1: Building, Yes, indeed, the brother Terrence Croft, and welcome.
Speaker 4: How you feeling feeling? Great?
Speaker 2: Fight goes down? July twenty ninth.
Speaker 1: Yes, I know you don'et heard this question a million times?
Speaker 1: But what took so long to make this fight happen?
Speaker 2: Man, listen to the mike, to the mike to the mic.
Speaker 4: Listen, listen, listen the fight here. I'm excited, fans excited,
Speaker 4: so it don't matter how long it took, as long
Speaker 4: as we got to the finish line.
Speaker 1: Do you think it's gonna be your toughest fight?
Speaker 4: I don't know. A lot of people ask me that
Speaker 4: every time I fight. I don't know until I get
Speaker 4: in the ring with him. Absolutely.
Speaker 2: How do you prepare for this fight?
Speaker 3: Are you prepare the same way or is there any
Speaker 3: different preparation for this one than any of the other
Speaker 3: fights that you've had.
Speaker 4: If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Just keep doing
Speaker 4: what I've been doing and everything else to play yourself out.
Speaker 1: You got to make some adjustments though. This is this
Speaker 1: is Earl Spinch. We talking about this is this ain't no, just.
Speaker 4: The guy that you had picked over there the moment.
Speaker 2: I remember, I don't.
Speaker 1: Forget I got you got her, not because you're not great.
Speaker 1: I just think you know styles fights. I think I
Speaker 1: think I forgot it.
Speaker 4: Definitely.
Speaker 1: You feel pressure going into this fight.
Speaker 4: Not at all, not at all. This is my moment,
Speaker 4: this is my time. That's what I've been waiting for
Speaker 4: in the world. Gonna see July twenty ninth.
Speaker 3: I always talk about you know, nowadays it feels like
Speaker 3: everybody wants to be undefeated, right, does that put more
Speaker 3: pressure on you? Because I think Floyd kind of did
Speaker 3: it with his fifty and no. But back then, you
Speaker 3: lose a fight, it was fine, I see you in
Speaker 3: the rematch and it was okay.
Speaker 2: It wasn't cool.
Speaker 3: But now it seems like when you lose a fight
Speaker 3: now everybody's like, oh, it's washed, it's over.
Speaker 4: And I don't think I never felt any pressure. I
Speaker 4: put my O on the line numerous of times with
Speaker 4: whoever they put in front of me. I called out
Speaker 4: the best fighters in each division that I've ever been in.
Speaker 4: Floyd have made it kind of hard for people to
Speaker 4: take a loss and keep going because so many people
Speaker 4: want to be like Floyd, and so many people was
Speaker 4: attracted to Floyd and follow Floyd's career, and they felt
Speaker 4: as if you wasn't like Floyd, then you wasn't that
Speaker 4: that guy, you know. But people lose, people come back,
Speaker 4: styles make fights, like he said, and things happen. So
Speaker 4: I never thought that a loss can define a fighter
Speaker 4: in any way, shape or form.
Speaker 1: I mean, Floyd's one of the best to ever do it.
Speaker 1: But why just look at Floyd? Why people don't look
Speaker 1: at Ali? You know, Lennux. All these great have lost,
Speaker 1: like Tommy hearn They've all lost.
Speaker 4: Because time, times has changed, social media have took an over.
Speaker 4: So when Tommy Hearns and Ali and all those great
Speaker 4: fighters that came before us, they didn't have to deal
Speaker 4: with the politics, they didn't have to deal with social
Speaker 4: media slandering though man doing this and doing that to
Speaker 4: impress people. So it's kind of different.
Speaker 3: You feel like, you know, you don't get the respect
Speaker 3: that you deserve when it comes to a lot of
Speaker 3: these fights, like even with you know, Charlamagne saying he
Speaker 3: thinks Arrow's gonna beat you, Like, do you feel like.
Speaker 1: A lot of this it's just boxing. It's just boxing
Speaker 1: at the end of the day.
Speaker 2: Don't back down now, I got.
Speaker 4: You're gonna lose, definitely, definitely.
Speaker 2: But do you feel like you don't get the respect
Speaker 2: that you deserve?
Speaker 4: Always? Always?
Speaker 2: Why is that?
Speaker 4: But how how great I am? I look at all
Speaker 4: the great fighters that came before me. None of them
Speaker 4: got their respect until ay they lost or they retired.
Speaker 4: Nobody gave Floyd his respect until he retired, then they
Speaker 4: realized how great he was us. A lot of people
Speaker 4: didn't give Ali his respect. A lot of people didn't
Speaker 4: give Roy Jones his respect until they lost or they retired.
Speaker 4: The lost part, I don't know, because I guess when
Speaker 4: one has lost or took in defeat to another great fighter,
Speaker 4: they feel as if this fighter is not invincible, so
Speaker 4: they can feel as if he's on the level. Now, well,
Speaker 4: we brought him down to earth. Now we can laugh
Speaker 4: at him. Now we can praise him for all the
Speaker 4: good things that he's done. I guess.
Speaker 1: Earl said your record was inflated. What is that word inflated?
Speaker 4: Well, listen, he can say all those type of things,
Speaker 4: But when you look at who I fought and who
Speaker 4: he fought, and you look at what I've done to him.
Speaker 4: You know, it's no comparison.
Speaker 1: Did did you just I think I pronounced his name right,
Speaker 1: that he beat you in amages? Your guinness jutis Ugus.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he beat me and the amateurs, and.
Speaker 1: Then Earl stopped him in the tenth ront when they fought.
Speaker 1: So Yugas said, there's no way you can beat Earl
Speaker 1: of Earl fights you the way he fought him. So
Speaker 1: does it matter if he beat someone who defeated you.
Speaker 4: Never listen, You're talking about a fight that happened when
Speaker 4: I was eighteen years old. I was a little kid.
Speaker 4: I was a little boy. You know that same little
Speaker 4: boy is no way shape form fashion the same little boy,
Speaker 4: you know, I mean the grown man that I am today.
Speaker 4: When I fought Ugust, I probably had like forty fights.
Speaker 4: Ugusts probably had hundreds coming from Cuba, and you know
Speaker 4: they fighting all the national I mean international tournaments, national ternams,
Speaker 4: all that, you know, So he had work experience at
Speaker 4: the time. So I wouldn't base him beat me at
Speaker 4: eighteen on a professional fight. We don't have no headgear on,
Speaker 4: We're fighting with smaller gloves, we're fighting longer rounds. Longer
Speaker 4: minutes in the rounds. So it's a lot of things
Speaker 4: that goes into fighting an amateur fight and fighting a
Speaker 4: professional fight. So a lot of people say, oh, well,
Speaker 4: you lost to ugas and this and that. A lot
Speaker 4: of people lost to a lot of people in the amateurs,
Speaker 4: and look what happened in a professional rankings. A lot
Speaker 4: of people can say, oh, with Terrence, you lost to
Speaker 4: this guy, you lost to that guy. Okay, Well, all
Speaker 4: the guys that I lost to in the amateurs, compare
Speaker 4: their career and professional to my career professional.
Speaker 1: Real What did you learn from those losses that you
Speaker 1: were able to take your professional career that has kept
Speaker 1: you undefeated?
Speaker 4: Well, a lot of things. I learned how to cope
Speaker 4: with certain styles. I learned how to capitalize on the
Speaker 4: things that I was doing wrong. So you just go
Speaker 4: back to the drawing board and fix the problem that
Speaker 4: that you had that led you to get the loss.
Speaker 4: You got to learn from it. And I felt like
Speaker 4: I learned from all my losses and I got stronger,
Speaker 4: I got wiser, I got more experience, and that led
Speaker 4: me to be the person that I am today in
Speaker 4: a professional ranking.
Speaker 1: Did you watch this fight with the fight between Spencon
Speaker 1: Yugas of course, and what did you think about it?
Speaker 4: It was a good fight. Errol did good, Ugus did
Speaker 4: good and it was a good fight.
Speaker 2: Now that fight was what twenty twenty one?
Speaker 1: I thought it was last year.
Speaker 3: Now he has important in over a years or does
Speaker 3: that give you the advantage of disadvantage? What's your thoughts
Speaker 3: to now?
Speaker 4: I don't even look at that like that. You know,
Speaker 4: he came off of long layoff prior to that, been
Speaker 4: in a car accident, and he came back and he
Speaker 4: looked too strong. He looked the good. So I'm not
Speaker 4: banking on him not being in the ring for him
Speaker 4: to come rusty or anything. He's a professional. He know
Speaker 4: how to fight, so come fight out, He'll be ready,
Speaker 4: just like I will.
Speaker 1: Is it better to be an independent promoter or to
Speaker 1: be assigned to one of these these companies?
Speaker 4: Well, in my situation, is better for me to be independent.
Speaker 4: I get the control my own destiny, I get to
Speaker 4: control my own faith and the rest is uphill for me.
Speaker 1: Now, I don't understand why the promoters don't want to
Speaker 1: make the best fights like this is the this is
Speaker 1: the fight we all want to see. This the fight
Speaker 1: that's gonna make the money. So what kept him from
Speaker 1: just making this fight?
Speaker 4: Well? Politics, you got you got two sides that that's
Speaker 4: powerhouses and you and neither side want to give in
Speaker 4: to the other side and Buss it's wise. It's better
Speaker 4: for me to do business in the house than outsource
Speaker 4: and have to share. So it's it's kind of like
Speaker 4: a greed thing.
Speaker 3: And how draining is is it doing all these interviews
Speaker 3: and press things when you gotta fight coming up and
Speaker 3: you gotta train.
Speaker 2: How draining is that?
Speaker 3: Because you gotta fly and go here And I even
Speaker 3: know Erro was supposed to come up here this morning,
Speaker 3: but you know his flight was delayed.
Speaker 2: How draining is that physically and mentally for you?
Speaker 4: Well, it's part of It's part of the game. As
Speaker 4: long as I get to get up early. I got
Speaker 4: to get up earlier, work out, come here, do this,
Speaker 4: do my other interviews, and hit the road, get back
Speaker 4: to training. Training never stops. We just got to alter
Speaker 4: it a little bit.
Speaker 1: You have a remats clause in the contract. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: are you gonna exercise it?
Speaker 4: Who need try to? They have one?
Speaker 1: But no, no, I feel like this is gonna be
Speaker 1: one of those moments in time where y'all do fight
Speaker 1: more than once. I don't know if it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a trilogy, but definitely at least twice.
Speaker 4: I think so, could be, could be never know. Maybe
Speaker 4: some dramatic happened in the first fight where he don't
Speaker 4: he don't want overmatch.
Speaker 1: If that happens, let's say you wouldn't decisively right, Let's say,
Speaker 1: if it happens, would you retire?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't think there's a need for
Speaker 4: me to retire right now when I want to fight
Speaker 4: Jamel Charlo.
Speaker 2: Why why would you say retired?
Speaker 4: Deep?
Speaker 1: I mean, because this is the fight, Like you know,
Speaker 1: this is the fight. This is the fight that of
Speaker 1: whoever wins, this is probably going to end up being the
Speaker 1: number one found for pound in the sport.
Speaker 4: I would think, right probably it will be will be yeah,
Speaker 4: will be?
Speaker 1: So, I mean like you want y'allo, so, I guess
Speaker 1: that makes sense.
Speaker 2: Have you seen the fight over the weekend with mayweathern Gotty?
Speaker 2: What was your thoughts on that fight.
Speaker 4: I didn't actually see the whole fight, but I've seen
Speaker 4: highlights of the fight. In the incident, it was crazy.
Speaker 2: You look at Mayweather be like damn in his age.
Speaker 2: He still got it.
Speaker 4: Definitely.
Speaker 3: He's still moving the slide and even when he was
Speaker 3: being attacked in that ring, he still kept his composure.
Speaker 2: It's still socked.
Speaker 4: On me, man, that right hand made God, he changed
Speaker 4: the subject. He was looking for somebody that stepped in
Speaker 4: the middle. But it's cool though. Man, It's all for entertainment.
Speaker 4: And I don't know what led that incident that happened,
Speaker 4: but you know it happened, and you know it's So do.
Speaker 1: You seek advice from guys like Maywether because you know
Speaker 1: he's he was an independent promoter and you talk to
Speaker 1: just about that and box and nothing.
Speaker 4: Oh No, with me and Mayweather talk, it's more like
Speaker 4: you know, how you doing, how the family everything going,
Speaker 4: how you feeling good, stay focused, stuff like that. You know,
Speaker 4: I look up to Mayweather. He's been one of my
Speaker 4: favorite fighters since I can remember him. And Roy Jones Jr.
Speaker 4: And uh yeah, Like I admire his work, ethic and
Speaker 4: everything that he's done in the sport.
Speaker 1: What boxer gives you the best advice?
Speaker 4: What boxer give me the best advice for just.
Speaker 1: In general boxing life? Whatever?
Speaker 4: Man, A lot of boxers, you know, I can say
Speaker 4: my coach, I can say my brothers, say my friends.
Speaker 4: I take a lot from you know, a lot of people,
Speaker 4: you know, because you can learn something from everybody, not
Speaker 4: just people that you think is on a higher platform
Speaker 4: or on a bigger stage than you. So yeah, if
Speaker 4: I can seek advice from anybody, I take it.
Speaker 1: I always wonder when when fighters get in the ring,
Speaker 1: do they do they take past fights with them or
Speaker 1: do you just whatever happened in the old fights you
Speaker 1: just leave them there? Like, is every fight a new.
Speaker 4: Thing for me? Yeah? Every fighter is a new thing.
Speaker 4: And that's how I try to go in training camp
Speaker 4: with a clear head. My coaches they trained me to
Speaker 4: the best of my ability and make sure that if
Speaker 4: we had any mishaps or a mess ups in the
Speaker 4: previous fight, that we capitalize on that and we fix
Speaker 4: the problem. And that's pretty much how we go into camp.
Speaker 3: Always wanted to know when when when a boxer picks
Speaker 3: a fight, right, you know, any any good boxes, they're
Speaker 3: gonna analyze your tape, analyze every fight that you do,
Speaker 3: and watch you. You know, because we all have you know,
Speaker 3: we're a habit, right, you have a habit of doing
Speaker 3: certain things do you how much do you change to
Speaker 3: make sure that they don't study that habit?
Speaker 4: Well, my thing is I'm so versatile and elusive that
Speaker 4: i can capitalize on anything my opponent's ever done in
Speaker 4: the ring. And I think that's why I rate myself
Speaker 4: so high, higher than other fighters, because you can fix
Speaker 4: one problem, but the more the fight goes, I'm experienced
Speaker 4: enough to recognize another problem. So I think that's why
Speaker 4: I rate myself high as I do.
Speaker 2: Who is your toughest opponent, the opponent that you've had
Speaker 2: so far?
Speaker 1: That dude from Lithuania, I can't pronounce his name, calass whatever. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when they say the one they say might have knocked
Speaker 1: you down, I don't.
Speaker 4: Know if he was. I would say the hardest fighting
Speaker 4: in my career, it would have to be between Vegas
Speaker 4: and in gambo Wow. Gamboa feet was just so fast
Speaker 4: and he was and he was so small to where
Speaker 4: he was darting in and darting out, and he was
Speaker 4: hitting me and making me miss just just buy in.
Speaker 4: So it was kind of like I had to I
Speaker 4: had to make certain adjustments, and he was making adjustments
Speaker 4: and I was making adjustments, and it was just like
Speaker 4: it was a chess match, but it was a fast
Speaker 4: chess match, and he was getting the better of me
Speaker 4: because he was more experienced, but at the same time
Speaker 4: he was more explosive. So I just had to, you know,
Speaker 4: figure figure out the puzzle a little longer.
Speaker 2: What stops you for being frustrated in that ring?
Speaker 3: Because most people you know watching that fight would have
Speaker 3: probably been frustrated and probably would have you know, left
Speaker 3: the hand down, left the chin available. So what makes
Speaker 3: you not get frustrated and calmed down and relaxed? You
Speaker 3: because you see it all the time. When you look
Speaker 3: at boxes in the ring, they're not listening to the coach.
Speaker 3: You could tell that their mind is on something else.
Speaker 1: Your demeaning of a change, it never changes at all,
Speaker 1: just like right now, it don't change.
Speaker 4: No, it's just you know, I think, like I said,
Speaker 4: the experience, I've seen it all. I've been in the
Speaker 4: ring with it all, and I know what to do
Speaker 4: and I know what I have to do. So when
Speaker 4: I get in those tough moments and those tough times,
Speaker 4: in those tough rounds, I know, keep doing what you're doing.
Speaker 4: It all playing out. You know, you just got to
Speaker 4: stay true to yourself. And fight your fight. If it
Speaker 4: ain't If one thing ain't working, you gotta resort to
Speaker 4: something else, Try something else. You can't just stick to
Speaker 4: the same thing. If it ain't working, then try something else, right,
Speaker 4: you know you got twelve rounds to do it, and
Speaker 4: if you don't, then you'll be banging your head on
Speaker 4: the table, like, why didn't I do this? Why didn't
Speaker 4: I try this? You already getting hit. I try to
Speaker 4: do something different.
Speaker 1: But if you had, if you have a whole game
Speaker 1: plan that you worked on through training camp, do you
Speaker 1: just abandon that.
Speaker 4: You can't just have one game plan or you got
Speaker 4: to have multiple You know what happened? If that one
Speaker 4: game plan don't work, then what you're gonna do. You're
Speaker 4: gonna be stuck in that one mold trying to do
Speaker 4: the same thing that ain't been working for the last
Speaker 4: team round. Then you're gonna be desperate, banking on a knockout,
Speaker 4: swinging for the fences. And that's how people get hurt.
Speaker 1: When you say you fixed fix your problems? What problems
Speaker 1: did you fix after the game?
Speaker 4: Boll I don't know.
Speaker 1: You can't.
Speaker 4: I ain't giving you too much.
Speaker 1: What do you do? You do you feel like that
Speaker 1: was a knockdown.
Speaker 4: No, I don't. I feel as if you pushed me
Speaker 4: as you as you can see. You know, as soon
Speaker 4: as the ref said a fight, I step right to him.
Speaker 4: You know he's very strong, very strong, explosive, good fighter, technical.
Speaker 4: You know that's a fight that you could say. I
Speaker 4: wasn't listening to my my coaches in my corner, and
Speaker 4: I was more emotional in that fight because I felt
Speaker 4: as if I had something to prove a I went
Speaker 4: in there looking for the knockout. So I didn't want
Speaker 4: to box. I don't want to use my skills. I
Speaker 4: just want to, you know, fight, And that's what happens
Speaker 4: when you go in there and fight the wrong fight.
Speaker 2: But what's gonna stop you from doing that at this time?
Speaker 3: You can't do that again because you want because I
Speaker 3: know you want to prove yourself.
Speaker 2: I know you want to knock knock hell out.
Speaker 1: You can't. He's big, He's naturally bigger than you.
Speaker 4: He's strong, he's the big guy. He's the big bad wolf.
Speaker 4: I didn't heard it all. He's strong, he's this, he's that,
Speaker 4: he's this that. So can he get hurt?
Speaker 1: Hen you're the man.
Speaker 4: So what's going to stop him from banging with me?
Speaker 1: I'm not a culture in your corner, but I wouldn't ask,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't suggest you bang with him.
Speaker 4: Why I think?
Speaker 2: I think it's trying to say it's not as powerful
Speaker 2: to what you're trying to say. What you're trying to say,
Speaker 2: you're trying to say, he's not as power.
Speaker 4: Think he's as.
Speaker 1: Strong as clearly check us. To be clear, Terrence Prophet
Speaker 1: is amazing.
Speaker 2: We know that what he does.
Speaker 4: What you say. What I'm saying is why do you
Speaker 4: view that? And how do you know?
Speaker 1: I don't what makes you?
Speaker 4: What makes you? What makes you think that?
Speaker 1: Probably the size? Yeah, I don't know if you can
Speaker 1: hurt him, is what I'm saying. I've seen you hurt
Speaker 1: people before. I don't know if you can hurt somebody.
Speaker 4: Besides, did he get hurt his last fight?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 4: Do you think I hear harder than his last opponent? Yes? Okay,
Speaker 4: case close.
Speaker 1: But you got to get to.
Speaker 3: Him though, So you're saying this man can't get to him.
Speaker 2: Is that what you say?
Speaker 1: I'm just saying you got to get to him. You
Speaker 1: got to get in there to do it.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, getting in there is the get between the ropes, right,
Speaker 4: and we're in there, right, it's gonna be a great fight.
Speaker 3: So when you speak to people like that, right, what
Speaker 3: stops you from saying you're not getting emotion?
Speaker 2: Be like, you know what, trying something.
Speaker 3: To because obviously there's a lot of people like Charlottage
Speaker 3: that that feels like.
Speaker 1: That's not no, it's not. It's not act like he's
Speaker 1: an underdog.
Speaker 2: He is kind of an underdog. You're talking.
Speaker 1: I think it's about I think people think it could
Speaker 1: go either way. This is this my man ran as
Speaker 1: a great boxing guy. He says, you win, no problem.
Speaker 1: My bother says, you win, no problem either. The bigs
Speaker 1: I've been having since the fights.
Speaker 2: But charloat many don't feel that way.
Speaker 4: Listen, that's his opinion. You know, when people have an opinion,
Speaker 4: it's like, so everybody got one.
Speaker 2: That is true, That is absolutely true.
Speaker 4: True.
Speaker 1: Have you thought about how you would deal with a
Speaker 1: loss in case it does happen?
Speaker 4: No, I don't. I don't think about things like that.
Speaker 4: You know, my mind is just clear right now. A
Speaker 4: things happen, they happen, you know, but we're preparing for
Speaker 4: the victory. That's it. You know all you're gonna lose.
Speaker 2: I don't think what's wrong with y'all gonna ask have
Speaker 2: you prepared for a loss of you?
Speaker 1: What kind of That's the same question that you kind
Speaker 1: of asked, what the having the zero record?
Speaker 4: Like?
Speaker 1: You know, some people lose, some people don't. So if
Speaker 1: you do lose, have you thought about how you prepare
Speaker 1: for that?
Speaker 4: We don't prepare for that.
Speaker 3: Now, for a young boxer out there, or or somebody
Speaker 3: that doesn't know, what is your daily routine and training?
Speaker 2: What does that deal with?
Speaker 3: Because most people just see the finished product, right they
Speaker 3: see y'all boxing, They don't know how much training it
Speaker 3: actually takes.
Speaker 2: So what is it? A day by day with with
Speaker 2: Terrence Craft?
Speaker 4: Look like work work, work, work, work work. What time
Speaker 4: you get up It depends. Sometimes we get up at five,
Speaker 4: sometimes we get up at six.
Speaker 2: You want you ride bikes, you go straight to the gym,
Speaker 2: you box?
Speaker 4: We do we do it all, We do it all.
Speaker 4: It depends on the day, depends on how my body feeling,
Speaker 4: depends on the weather, depends on a lot of things
Speaker 4: that I can't control. So long as we getting the
Speaker 4: work done, that's all that matter.
Speaker 3: Another question most people ask is when it comes to
Speaker 3: having sex before the fight, Oh my god, how long
Speaker 3: do you.
Speaker 2: Abstain from having sex?
Speaker 3: Everybody keep because it's it's people always want to know
Speaker 3: that man.
Speaker 1: And it ain't no women asking me that you ever
Speaker 1: think that's crazy? Right exactly.
Speaker 4: On me. Hey listen, man, I don't. I don't. I
Speaker 4: don't know about other people, but it relaxes me. And
Speaker 4: that's something that I've been doing my whole career.
Speaker 2: So you ain't umber staining that.
Speaker 4: It is what it is. It is what it is.
Speaker 4: I think it's a well me personally. I know it's
Speaker 4: a myth, you know, but I wouldn't tell anybody else
Speaker 4: to go out there and try to be like Terrence
Speaker 4: Crawford because they heard Terrence Crawford say, oh man, you
Speaker 4: can have sex and they don't do nothing to you.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying for me, it never affected.
Speaker 1: Me regardless of how this fight goes. Would you would
Speaker 1: you ever give somebody like like Boots the shot and
Speaker 1: right a young boy?
Speaker 4: Listen, listen, I'm open for for all of them. Like
Speaker 4: I said, I never turned down to fight in my
Speaker 4: whole career, never dug dodged, walked away and ran from nobody,
Speaker 4: every person that the media have put and said, Terrence,
Speaker 4: you need to fight him, or Terrence, he's chasing you.
Speaker 4: I fought him. If you can go back to when
Speaker 4: I thought Darry Jean, when he was talking crazy to
Speaker 4: me and Hank Lundy, when everybody was saying, Oh, you
Speaker 4: need to fight Hank, you need to do this, you
Speaker 4: need to do that. You know I didn't fought them all.
Speaker 1: What would be the benefit of a OG like you
Speaker 1: giving somebody like a boots of.
Speaker 4: Shot just just to satisfy the fans. That's it, because
Speaker 4: he's an up and comer. He doesn't have anything to offer,
