Much respect to this champ! Even with the loss, he’s a hell of a fighter
He’s a NEW fighter since 155. AND he DID do it the old fashioned way. Plus what I like most…? Especially for my kids to be able to watch.. is that he stays classy, No trash talking, he lets his fighting do the real talking and he don’t swear. I can’t tell you the respect we have for him.
