""Mick Maynard offered me a fight in April, but it was too close because I still had some injuries to heal, so I refused and he offered me this fight with 'The Pirate' and I accepted.""
""The secret of the success is run the risk. I like to put on a show and take risks. If I'm going to be fired, let it be me getting screwed and doing what I love.""
""I think it'll last two rounds. We'll both come out battered, it'll be a lot of fun for everyone to watch. God willing, I'll win a bonus to finish paying the bills and be at peace.""
