Starting point is 00:00:54 true breadborn fighting man who never quits never says die and if I was ever gone a jacket he wouldn't have been in a boxing ring it had been when I was suffering mental health I was on the verge of suicide that's when I quit but I didn't quit on myself and I didn't quit on the world that's why I'm back here to tell us to me maybe I was finished in my body but my mindset was that strong and I believed that I was gonna win if you believe it first with a mind anything's achievable and I believed it so much on I never ever doubt myself in a fight no matter who it is with who.
Starting point is 00:01:31 I always believe I'm going to win somehow, some way. I'll find a way. For those people, all the oppressed, depressed, alcoholics, drug addicts, I fight for all those people. To give them hope every day so they can wake up in the morning and I know there's somebody out there banging for us. He is our man. I just showed the world tonight, everyone's suffering with mental health that
Starting point is 00:02:05 you can come back and it can be done. Everybody out there who has the same problems I've been suffering with did that for you guys and if I can come back from where I come from Then you can do it too like is he going here, is he going there, is he moving is he jabbing? He'll come at you like this with two three fake jabs He'll move out of the way. He'll pop you with a jab ass he's moving away. He's like a very technical like really sophisticated boxer A great man a great great man once said for he who is not correct courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing. Time and time again, I can never be wrote off,
Starting point is 00:02:54 I can never be big till them down and out. Greatness never becomes easy. You never get anything good easy. Anything that's good in life is always very hard to get, or everybody that is going to be willing to take risk. And I've risked everything my whole career to get to this point. What is successful? You know the world has different things and what
Starting point is 00:03:30 success is to what really successes I think successes to me is waking up in a good mood having a good day surrounded by people who you want to be surrounded by that's all success success to me isn't measured on how much money you've got or or what business ventures you're into success for me is it's being happy in your home and with your wife and your kids or your partner whoever you've got being happy with those people that's success to me Before I used to take everything and think, oh, I want this, I want my... I was never happy with what I got.
Starting point is 00:04:09 It's human nature we always want more. No matter what it is, no matter how much you've got of something, then you always search it for more things. And now it's like, I don't care if I lose everything, but I don't care what happens. Nothing really is ours anyway in life. The only thing we truly own in this life is moments in time. And this is a moment in time for me that will never be erased. be erased and no matter what happens this is always going to be my time this will be my
Starting point is 00:04:34 moment in time because I lived here and I was a part of us you know everything else this bag this watch these clothes they'll all go what does it really matter body will go this is a shell but what's inside hope to God lives on forever I just do more than I've ever done a sacrifice more today than I did when I was absolutely starting on with nothing from the bottom And I don't know even now that's possible. I'm tighter today. Now I've made it than I ever was coming up. I'm more stricter, more dedicated.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Train more. Smarter. Train smarter. Before it was like, it's this dream job to be heavyweight champion of the world. All that comes with it. But when you get there to the top, you find out that the real only thing that matters is your training, is your boxing
Starting point is 00:05:32 is your fights and all the other that comes along with it the fame the glory the credit the articles the money whatever you can buy with for the money
Starting point is 00:05:45 it's all short-lived crap because at the end of the day you're only as good as your last tenor and that's all she wrote life is precious and it's beautiful just to wake up in the morning before before I used to take it all for
Starting point is 00:06:01 granted I didn't care I didn't care about nothing I didn't care about family friends relatives achievements I didn't care about call but now after going to hell and back I appreciate fresh air and a glass of water you never know what you've really gotten to it's gone but I've had the opportunity to be shut down and come back I think life are too short for regrets we live we learn we get on with our lives I never regret like I wish I didn't that or wish I didn't say that I think it's all unimportant stuff what we did yesterday's history it's not really important it's about living for today not
Starting point is 00:06:47 even for tomorrow living for today and being thankful of what we have now not for what we want or might think we want I used to worry about a lot of stuff in my life worry about what people think worry about making people happy worrying about X Y and Z now I don't worry about being happy now and being happy today and tomorrow So that's how we're not promised tomorrow. So I live today because I know that I am not guaranteed to wake up in the morning. So I'm just going to be happy for now.
Starting point is 00:07:19 And that's how I live. One day at a time, if I go to bed sad tonight, I think to myself, you know what, tomorrow's going to be a brand new day, I'm going to wake up happy.
