He will be honored and serve as the special guest for their 2nd annual Celebrity Golf Classic and pool party Август 15 вCommack, NY at The Hamlet. As the honoree, Melson’s also participating in a cocktail hour, award dinner, interview sessions, photo ops and meet & greet.
A501(с)(3), the NYSCF helps to benefit and improve the lives of children and help those in need live happier and healthier. The mission of the New York Sportscene Children’s Foundation is to provide much needed support of local charities.
A recognizable figure in and out of the ring, Melson gained notoriety in the boxing world by donating 100% of his fight purses towards helping others. 16 of his purses went to Team Fight to Walk to help find the cure for Chronic Spinal Cord Injuries and the other went to a friend whose son has brain cancer. Between his fights, charity galas and donations, Melson and co-founder Christan Zaccagnino helped raise close to $400,000. He is also a well-known motivational speaker that has inspired the US Army, various athletes, at-risk youths, large corporations and students of all ages.
The NYSCF is specifically recognizing Melson for his dedication and support of Team Fight to Walk, mentoring at risk youths and excellence as an athlete.
The NYSCF’s Golf Classic will raise funds to provide for local children in need. Их 2015 event made it possible to host a poolside party for more than 150 ill, special needs and underprivileged children and their families. These children, many whom never swam in a pool before, will be shuttled in from the NYC boroughs as well as Long Island to enjoy the pool party. The funds raised last year also covered a holiday celebration for close to 1,000 children and their caregivers.
This event also supports the YES WE CARE Veteran Support Program, Family Services of Westchester Jerome Wagner Youth Residence for Boys, Evelyn Sachs Steiner Residence for Girls and a SUNY Farmingdale Alumni Association Scholarship. Кроме того,, the NYSCF is making a donation to Team Fight to Walk, which literally brought Melson to tears upon hearing the news.
"I’ve had the blessing to be honored many times for things I’ve done in and out of the ring but this is truly unlike anything else,"Сказал Мелсон. “When I got the call for this and was asked to be the honoree, I thought they were kidding. The original guest was Denzel Washington and the fact that they went from him to me is beyond humbling. I immediately started crying over the phone thanking them profusely. I’m looking forward to this event and owe a special thanks to both Laura Quintoni and Fran Petito, who are both part of the New York Sportscene Children’s Foundation’s leadership. I told them both that the universe keeps reminding me of my path by sending angels into my life to help me along my path. As soon as I heard about the pool party, my first question wascan I get in the pool and play with the kids.I was met with an encouraging yes and I am looking forward to that part of the day as much as any part. FOX News will be filming and although it will not be aired live, the coverage will air nationwide at some point. I hope to meet many great families and bring smiles to their faces. My wish from this is that this experience increases my opportunities to help positively impact the lives of others."

The fighters spoke to media Четверг at the Dream Hotel Downtown in Manhattan. Вот то, что участники должны были сказать,:
Лео Санта Крус
I’m glad that my whole family is here and I’m thankful to my whole team that got me ready for this opportunity.
I’m so happy to have my dad here. We thought about not taking this fight when he got the [рак] diagnosis. He’s always been there with me since the beginning of my career. Since I was very small. When the doctors told me that he would be in my corner, I was even more ready for this fight.
I know that this is going to be an interesting fight. We’re both undefeated and we’re going to make it a war. Neither of us wants that first loss. We’re going to leave it all in the ring. This won’t be an easy fight. It’s a 50-50 борьба. The fighter who wants it the most will win the night.
I want boxing fans from every backgroundLatino people from everywhere – мексиканцы, Dominicans, Puerto Ricansto come out and support me and come watch a great fight в субботу ночь.”
КАРЛ Фрэмптона
I’ve worked very hard in the gym and I feel strong at 126 фунты. This new weight suits me and you will see the result in the ring.
Nothing can compare to this opportunity. People know me in Belfast, but Leo Santa Cruz is a three-weight world champion who gives me the opportunity to become more well known.
“Этот бой продает себя. I respect all my opponents until I’m disrespected myself. I respect Leo because of his actions and because of the great fighter that he is.
I’m a different animal now at 126 фунты. I was only performing at 70 или 80 percent of what my capabilities were. I’m feeling strong and I’m a different fighter. This will be my best performance.
I’m honored to be on a bill with so many great fighters. There are four fights that could probably top a bill in their own right. I’m honored to be here and I’m going to get the victory в субботу ночь.”
MIKEY GARCIA
It’s been a while since I’ve done this but I’m very excited to be back. I want to thank everyone who helped put this fight together.
Everybody has said it all. Мы готовы. We’re prepared and we’ve had a great training camp. Rojas has the boxing skills to make this complicated.
I have better skills than any fighter put in front of me. This will be the beginning of the next stage of my career. The most memorable part of my career.
ELIO ROJAS
I’m very thankful for this opportunity. I’m really happy about being on this show. В этой борьбе. I know I’m being brought in as an opponent, but I’m going to let the fans know that I’m not just an opponent.
I know who Mikey Garcia is. I have all the abilities to win on Июль 30. I’ve always been a boxer who was never protected. I always prepare to win the fight and this will be no exception.
Тони Харрисона
I’m just excited to be back on a platform like this. I’m ready put in work. I know my opponent doesn’t speak much English, but I bet he speaks hands.
No disrespect to Ricky Hatton, because what he’s done for his country and for Rabchenko is amazing, but I don’t care about it at all. Seeing Ricky over there fuels me even more to get the win.
I just had a son, he’s three months old. He’s my new motivation. We’ve pushed it to the max in training camp. I’m ready to swim with the sharks. I’ve transitioned from a sprinter to a marathon runner. I’m ready to go into the later rounds.
I’m ready to put Detroit back on the map. One thing you know about Detroit, we’re about that action. В Субботу, we’re coming for it.
SERGEY RABCHENKO
This is a very nice country and a great city for boxing. It’s my first time here and it’s very exciting. I’m going to give the fans a really good fight.
I know my opponent is a young, strong kid fighter and he will be ready. I want him to be ready so that we can give the fans a great show.
Поли Малиньяджи
I hear young guys like Tony Harrison and Tevin Farmer come up here and talk, it reminds me of my young days. The gym I train in down in Miami is full of young guys hungry to break through. That’s the feeling we all used to have in the gym. It starts to rub off on you when you hang around motivated people.
I need to have great motivation and that fire to return to the top level. I took a couple steps back after the Garcia fight and gradually stepped up. I think Gabe is another step up. He’s a hungry and motivated guy.
I know Gabriel Bracero, not only as a fighter, but I know his spirit. We came up together in the same generation of New York fighters.
It’s all love and respect. But this Brooklyn Belt, it looks pretty nice. This is staying here in Bensonhurst.
Габриэль Bracero
I want to thank Tommy Gallagher, мой тренер. He always stood by my side and always believed in me. No matter what the critics said. It’s because of him that I’m standing here now.
I’ve made mistakes in life. I was away from this sport for a while. Boxing was always my dream though. I stayed focused so that I can come out and do what I’m doing now. Not too many people can bounce back from a situation like that.
Суббота is a big fight and I’m looking forward to it. I’m really thankful that Paulie gave me this opportunity. I always followed his career and his successes. It was a dream of mine to come out here and have the same success he had. I looked up to him.
To be here right now and to be able to fight Paulie is incredible. He’s giving me the opportunity to reach his level of success.
I encourage everyone to come out Суббота ночь. I’m going to leave my heart in the ring. That Brooklyn Belt is beautiful and I can’t wait to have it around my waist. This is business, not personal. You should get ready to see fireworks.
ИВАН REDKACH
I’m very thankful to be part of such a great event. I changed a lot about my training heading into this fight. I’ve trained with the great champion Leo Santa Cruz and it has me ready.
I want to show everyone in the ring what I can do, not up on the stage with my words.
TEVIN FARMER
I want to thank my training staff for preparing me for battle Суббота ночь. I’m thankful for this opportunity.
This is another chance to show the world who I am. I have about three years with no losses. I started boxing as a hobby. But when I realized how much talent I had, I started training right.
Since I started taking this sport seriously, I’ve been taking guys out easily. Ivan Redkach will get this work. It’s going to be easy.
I’m not about talk. A lot of people don’t know who I am, but everyone will know в субботу ночь.”
АМАНДА СЕРРАНО
To be here with these great fighters is an amazing opportunity. I’m very honored. I’m ready to fight and successfully defend my title.
I’m going to show all the critics and non-believers that female fighters have the talent and courage of the male fighters, and we’re here to stay. Come out в субботу night for a great show.
Барри Макгиган, Менеджер Фрэмптона, Бывший чемпион мира & Зал Славы
We’re delighted to be here in Manhattan for this potential Fight of the Year. The whole team that made this fight happen has been fantastic.
I just wanted to say that we’re thrilled that Jose Santa Cruz is back on his feet, every one of our families is affected by cancer.
This is a clash of styles that could make it a fight of the year. We have the utmost respect for Leo Santa Cruz, but we’re here to win and we will win.
Лу ДиБелла, Президент ДиБелла Entertainment
I think that this is the best card that I’ve ever been able to promote. This is the deepest boxing card from top to bottom that I’ve seen.
Barclays Center has become one of the homes for great boxing. It is the premier venue right now for boxing in this country. The Brooklyn Boxing program is something that Barclays Center is truly committed to.
If you’re from Brooklyn, then you want that Brooklyn Belt. It’s about carrying the mantle of being that guy from Brooklyn. That’s what both Paulie and Gabe are going to try to do.
The main event is one of the elite fights that can be made in the sport. These are two amazing fighters. The winner won’t just be a featherweight champion; the winner will have an argument for the pound-for-pound list.
Стивен Эспиноза, Исполнительный вице-президент & Главный Управляющий, Showtime спорта
SHOWTIME has been bringing its viewers the best, most competitive fights of the year, и Суббота will be no exception.
The 154-pound division is the deepest and hottest in the sport. Tony Harrison and Rabchenko are looking to make their mark and get up to the next level of the division.
Having Mikey Garcia back is a treat. It’s a big positive for the sports of boxing. Elio Rojas is not just an opponent though. Он крутой, he is hungry and I expect this to be an amazing fight as well.
The main event is again the best versus the best. Two of the most aggressive fighters in any division. There’s nothing else to say about this fight other than that it will be all action. I think this fight could be better than Thurman vs. Носить.
We’re proudest of all to have the best versus the best. This is what boxing should be. You should be there if you can в субботуnight and if not, watch on SHOWTIME, you will not be disappointed.
BRETT YORMARK, генеральный директор Бруклин Спортс & Развлечения
This is arguably the strongest card from top to bottom that we’ve had in Brooklyn since we’ve hosted fight cards. This will be a great follow-up to the incredible Thurman vs. Porter fight last fight. We expect another headlining fight that could be a leading contender for Fight of the Year. We are honored to welcome these two great competitors to Brooklyn. They are two of the most exciting fighters in the sport and we wish both of you the best в субботу.
Субботу card certainly has a Brooklyn flavor to it. It begins with Bensonhurst’s Paulie Malignaggi taking on Gabriel Bracero from Sunset Park with the Brooklyn’s World Championship on the line.
“Аманда Серрано, another Brooklynite, will be the first women ever to defend her title at Barclays Center. We look forward to seeing you in the ring в субботу ночь.”

As Leo Santa Cruz and Carl Frampton prepare to collide for one of the top spots in the featherweight division в эту субботу, the undefeated fighters have plenty of motivation as they approach their marquee summer blockbuster.

 

Boxing has always been a family affair for the Santa Cruz clan, with father Jose leading the charge with the assistance of Leo’s brother, Энтони. But a frightening diagnosis of cancer has threatened to prevent Jose from manning Leo’s corner for the first time in his career.

 

After unifying the super bantamweight division, Frampton moved up to featherweight for his second fight in the U.S. And while the Irish sensation aims to become a two-division world champion, he’s also hoping to become a star in America and follow in the footsteps of his mentor, Hall of Famer Barry McGuigan.

 

Check out these intimate SHOWTIME Sports features on Santa Cruz and Frampton as they approach a career-defining moment в эту субботу, жить на SHOWTIME® (9 p.m. И/6 p.m. PT) от Barclays Center в Бруклине.

Eleider ”Буря” Альварес – WBC #1 рейтинговый претендент и серебряный чемпион WBC в полутяжелом весе:
”С уведомлением всего за 10 дней, Я очень рад встретиться с бойцом хорошего калибра. Берридж - крутой парень, которому противостояли такие добрые имена, как Томас Остхейзен и Блейк Капарелло., но я очень усердно готовился к Чаду Доусону. Я готов.”
Роберт ”Мясник” Berridge – Чемпион Новой Зеландии в полутяжелом весе :
”Я рад быть здесь и встретиться с солидным боксером. Ожидайте от меня хорошего выступления Пятница.”
Ивон Мишель – Президент GY-:
”Мероприятие называется «SHOOTOUT»’ из-за агрессивного стиля Томаса Уильямса-младшего, кто борется, как будто нет завтра, в сочетании с взрывной мощью Адониса Стивенсона.”
”Уильямс представляет собой явную и реальную опасность, но мы уверены, что Адонис хорошо подготовлен и добьется успеха., чтобы мы все были счастливы Суббота утро во время завтрака. Мы еще не раскрыли его весь потенциал.’
”Бой между Элейдером Альваресом и Робертом Берриджем действительно важен для рейтинга в полутяжелом весе.. Альварес высоко ценится всеми независимыми рейтингами (Кольцо, BoxRec) и Берридж уже тренировался до ухода Чада Доусона., потому что он должен был драться на HBO PPV в минувшие выходные до того, как бой был отменен по административным причинам. Он бесстрашный и сильный нападающий.”

Вот то, что бойцы должны были сказать, Среда:
Лео Санта Крус
I’m ready to come here and give a great fight. Я хочу, чтобы сделать его войну. Carl Frampton is a great fighter and he makes for an interesting fight. I’m excited to perform in front of the fans.
Carl is an undefeated fighter just like myself, so we’re both going to be hungry. We’re going to leave it all in the ring. Neither of us wants to lose and we’re going to give it our all.
My dad is going to be in my corner and that’s very important to me. We’re both excited to give the fans a great show. It’s a great relief to have him here and for many more years.
I think that this is the perfect time for this fight. We’re both undefeated and in the prime of our careers. It’s an easy fight to make and a really big fight that the fans will love.
I don’t think moving up in weight will affect Carl at all. He’s got a big frame and he’s a big guy. He is probably a little bit bigger than me. I know he had problems making 122 фунты, but this should be easier for him.
I think he’s going to move and I’m going to have to be smart and not get caught. If I’m not feeling his punches, then we’re going to stand in front of him and exchange. I can also box with him if I need.
I know I’ll have to use my jab and follow up with the right. We have a game plan and backup plans. We’ll be ready for anything.
I think our styles are both very exciting. Я не могу дождаться Суббота ночь. This is the right fight. I’m hoping that both of us come forward and give the fans a show.
People think Frampton is the underdog because he’s moving up in weight. But I moved up in weight too. I never take an opponent lightly. I’m going to come really hungry. I respect every fighter and I train for my opponent to be at his best.
I have a lot of respect for Frampton. He has everything you need to be a great fighter. Excellent footwork, great power and good punches. Once he’s in the ring with me, I’m fighting for my future.
This could definitely be a career-defining fight. I think getting a win over Carl Frampton will get me to the next level. I think the winner of the fight will be considered one of the best fighters in the world.
ХОСЕ SANTA CRUZ, Leo’s Father & Тренер
“Я действительно счастлив быть здесь. I’ve been at all of Leo’s fights and it’s great to be at this one. This is just another reason to be happy. I’m so thrilled for Leo that he has this opportunity and to be here for him.
I know Frampton is undefeated, but Leo comes very prepared. He has worked hard in camp, как он всегда делает. Hopefully both fighters give the fans a good fight on fight night.
КАРЛ Фрэмптона
It’s getting big this week. It’s real. I’m completely up for it. I’m excited to bring a big crowd over here and I’m going to do everything I can to have my hand raised.
This is a dream of mine. To come to America and box is something I’ve always wanted to do. Barclays Center is taking over as the best venue in New York and I’m going to look to put on a world-class performance. It will take my best to get this victory.
Obviously I have enough motivation on my own, but it would be nice to bring back the title that Barry (Макгиган) once owned. It feels a bit like destiny for me. It’s my turn to win it back for him. I’m doing this for my whole team. I’m doing this for my family and I’m doing this for my entire country.
I’ve dealt with fighting bigger guys throughout my whole career. I’m used to it. I’ve fought bigger guys than Santa Cruz. I think on fight night I’m going to be stronger. People forget that he started his career at bantamweight while I fought as a featherweight in the amateurs. Ночью, I’ll be the bigger man and that will be the difference.
Leo seems like a nice guy and he’s very respectful. I’ve been respectful to him. He’s obviously a very good fighter. This is a world title fight, so I don’t think we need any extra words between the two of us. We’re both undefeated and we’re looking for a war.
The last time I was an underdog was 2009 during the Irish championships. I was a massive underdog and everyone who knew me won a lot of money that night.
Leo is a great fighter. He’s world class. Easily the toughest opponent that I’ve faced so far. But I think I’m Leo’s best opponent as well. I think this has all the ingredients to be a top quality fight. I’ve had a hard training camp and I’m ready to leave everything in the ring.
I’ve got a game plan. I’m not going to blink. We’re hoping that ‘game plan Awill work, but if not, I’ve got a few tricks up my sleeve.
All the pressure is on Santa Cruz. Everyone is expecting him to win. I’m going to come in there and upset him. I’m here to put on a great performance and bring the belt back home.
I’ve gotten a good reception since coming to America and I think it will only grow on fight night. People will appreciate my style and I think our styles will gel well in the ring.
I’m feeling strong mentally and physically. I feel like my stamina level has increased with the new weight. I’m eating well and enjoying myself.
Барри Макгиган, Менеджер Фрэмптона, Бывший чемпион мира & Зал Славы
Being here is great. I never got a chance to fight here in New York. I’ve always known that Frampton would be a sensation over here. We’ve always wanted to be here on the east coast. We’ve worked very hard with the Irish community to get his name out there. It’s been fantastic.
This is a can’t miss fight. It can’t be a bad fight, no matter how you look at it. It’s going to be an exciting fight. It might start off tepid, but it’s going to develop into a phenomenal fight. The mesh of styles is going to make this a Fight of the Year candidate.
It was a wonderful experience being at the Empire State Building yesterday and it was our first opportunity to meet the Santa Cruz family. They’re wonderful people and Leo is an incredible fighter. He’s not arrogant and he’s the sort of guy that everybody likes. We admire Santa Cruz, but we believe that Carl is going to put on an amazing performance Суббота ночь.
What’s important is winning в субботу ночь. We put so much time and commitment to this game. You don’t want to do all that work and lose. Getting the win is vital.
MIKEY GARCIA
I don’t feel any pressure at all. Мне, it’s just another day at the office. I have faith in my abilities and confidence in what I can do as a boxer. I’m excited to be back. I’m going to go in there and take care of business like I always do.
The New York fans have always showed me a lot of love and support. не важно что, they’re in for a good boxing match. The fans are great and they want a great fight. I never look to make a boring fight. I always want to put on a show. I want to give the fans something to talk about.
I’m more motivated than I ever have been before. It’s been a long time of working hard in the gym every day.
I’m very happy to be back and I want to accomplish a lot more. I think you’re going to see a better Mikey в субботу. My will to win is higher than it’s ever been.
Being on a card like this is a reminder of everything that I can be. If there is interest in me right now, it shows that someone believes in me. We put everything else aside and focused on this date. После этого, I’m looking for a world title.
Роберт Гарсия, Mikey’s Brother & Тренер
I think that Mikey is going to put on a great performance. Anything could happen in boxing. Mikey should look good and he should win convincingly.
I think the interest that people have in Mikey’s future shows how much potential he has. He’s a guy who could be a big name to help carry the sport.
We haven’t been listening to anything outside of the camp. We stopped any conversations outside of training to get 100 percent focused on this fight. We’re looking to come back stronger than ever.
ELIO ROJAS
We’re both coming off of long layoffs. I see the fight pretty even. Garcia might have some advantages of being the bigger guy but I’m not worried about that.
The new weight feels good. It’s different but it’s nice to not have to kill the body to make weight. We’ve been on weight for two weeks. I’ve brought some power with me as I go up in weight. Я чувствую себя сильным.
I’ve been doing everything right in training camp. My specialty is moving my hands and excellent footwork.
I feel like I can beat Mikey Garcia. I have some things that I think will give Mikey Garcia a lot of trouble. I have the tools. We know that Mikey is the favorite. Everyone thought LeBron James was going to lose in the Finals when he was down 3-1, but this is a sport and anything can happen.
Тони Харрисона
I take this sport seriously. Everything I do, Я делаю 100 процентов. I’m here for the city of Detroit. The city needs something to rejuvenate and that’s what I’m trying to do. I want to bring big-time boxing back to Detroit.
This is going to be a fan-friendly fight. This is going to be like Thurman vs. Носить. The styles are just perfect for this fight. I’m going to be at my best on fight night.
Being here in New York is great. I can tell right away that it’s a great fight atmosphere and I love it.
It was a very long camp. I’m in great shape and ready mentally. I have a lot to prove in this fight and I’m excited to get in there.
I watched a 15-second clip of him and then I shut the video off. I don’t want to make adjustments off of him, I want him to adjust to me. I know that he’s a tough competitor. You can’t take anything away from his record.
“Я принимаю это один бой в то время,. I just want to get the respect that I deserve. That’s what I’m coming for. They call me for a fight and I say yes.
I think I’m at my best right now. I’m starting to peak. I’m starting to find my grown-man strength and my second wind in the ring. When I’m going in late rounds I feel comfortable.
Whoever wants to fight; they know I’m going to say yes. I just want to compete. I’m fighting for my city and I want to see where I’m at. I’m ready to carry the load for Detroit boxing. I wouldn’t want to be from anywhere else.
My team is definitely the strongest it’s ever been. I’m in a really good place mentally right now. I think I’m going to show a whole new level в субботу ночь.”
SERGEY RABCHENKO
It’s the most important fight of my life. I think it’s a very interesting fight, with it being my first time in America. I’ve enjoyed it a lot so far. New York never sleeps. There are always many different kinds of people. It’s a nice city.
Having Ricky Hatton as my trainer helps me because of his great experience. He’s been in many big fights and he’s a great trainer. I’m very comfortable working with him.
I am aiming for a knockout, but I’m ready for 12 раундов. It’s boxing though, so anything can happen. It could be over very quickly.
This is a big chance in my life. It’s a big step and I’m ready to take advantage of it.
RICKY HATTON, Rabchenko’s Trainer
This isn’t exactly like fighting, but I do get very nervous and tense in the corner. I’ve fulfilled my dreams and now I’m here trying to help other fighters fulfill their dreams. I get nervous but I’m confident in him.
Sergey has been a pleasure to train. I think he’s going to be a world champion. I really do. He’s been a European Champion and he’s overcome his loss. I think this is the best he’s ever been. We’ll hope that it translates to Суббота night because he certainly has the potential to be a world champion.
I can’t train fighters that I’m not fond of. I’ve known Sergey for a number of years and I’m here for him. I have a feel for being in the corner with him. There is a different type of nerves I have being in the corner.
Поли Малиньяджи
I hope the crowd enjoys this fight. I really want to put on a show for the local fans and represent for my home.
It would normally be strange to fight a guy I know so well. But I know he’s a competitor. I’ve known his mentality since the amateurs. Он приходит, чтобы выиграть. Как только прозвенит звонок, this guy isn’t taking any prisoners. I trained with that same mentality.
I know we’re both competitors. Who wants the bragging rights в субботу ночь?
Hopefully we can bring some fans of ours to the building в субботу night and they can become fans of Santa Cruz and Frampton.
This is a great crossroads fight. I trained for the competitor that I know he is and I’m ready to put on a show.
This fight gives me an opportunity to keep dreaming in that ring. I have an opportunity to do some things that people don’t think I’m able to, but I feel like I still can. I’m going to put my skills to good use and accomplish what I’m set out to do.
It’s not about impressing myself, it’s about getting the job done to the best of my abilities. I want to prove to people that I still have more left than they think.
Габриэль Bracero
This is all business. Paulie is a friend now and he’ll be a friend after. But I’m trying to make it to Paulie’s level. He is successful and I’m trying to do the same thing. Boxing is my outlet to reach those goals.
There was a time when I was away in prison. I would receive boxing magazines in the mail and see Paulie there and on TV. I wanted to be Paulie’s competition and have his success. By him giving me this opportunity I can accomplish that. I’m thankful but I’m taking him down.
I don’t want to sound overconfident. You’re going to see a chess match. Paulie is a boxer. When he makes a mistake, I’m going to capitalize on it. The rest will be a surprise.
This is the biggest fight of my career. If I beat Paulie, my career will jump to the next level. I can get the big fights that I’m looking for. I’m never looking past Paulie and I’m focused on the task at hand.
