""Let's get this down in black and white so no one comes up with any bullsh- here. I lost my focus there. Focus on the goal. Focus on the target and that was especially the case when Ulberg injured his leg.""
""I know from the moment that happened to him, I wasn't at 100% anymore. I was at maybe 40, 50% of my performance and I was just sparring and waiting for the referee to stop the fight at any moment.""
""It was a big mistake. Maybe one of the biggest. I don't want to beat myself up about it nonstop. Because the most important thing is to always learn from it.""
