Having held my last training camp there, and it being just two hours from Little Rock, Memphis is like a second home to me. I can't wait to perform in front of my fans from Arkansas and my adopted hometown fans in Memphis. It's going to be a great night.
Every boxer that puts on the gloves dreams of someday hearing the words 'and new champion...'
He showed me he has the tools and the heart to be a champ ? once I'm gone,
I'm hoping it's in Little Rock. If not in Little Rock, somewhere close, so my Arkansas fans can come.
I don't have to have a knockout. I just need to win this fight and leave no doubts in the minds of my fans or his fans,
I feel like I have all the love and respect for him, I know he's just a scared man, he's nothing else. And now he doesn't have the belts anymore.
Whoever comes to Little Rock, I'm knocking him out!
