If I fought who he did, I’d be undefeated. Isla mar ahaantaa, had he faced the opponents I did under the same circumstances, he’d have a few losses. Si aad u noqoto qof daacad ah, I’m sick of thinking about him. This is the most eager I’ve been for a fight in my career and I can’t wait to show everybody what I can do on May 2nd!"
