Starting point is 00:01:25 What up, what up? And our guest today, Nikon. What's up, guys? What up, what up? Man, you're looking slim. Appreciate it, bro. Thank you, man. How much weight you lost? So, overall, I've lost over like 140 pounds, 130 pounds. Where were you at now?
Starting point is 00:01:40 I was big. Right now, I'm at like 225, around like 225, 230. Okay, so you were almost 300 pounds. I was big. Right now, I'm at like 225, around like 225, 230. Okay, so you were almost, you were 300 pounds. I was like 370 at my highest. How many months? That was a couple years ago. Okay, okay. So a couple years ago, I really started to like care about my, you know, just health and stuff. And then I kind of just let myself go a little bit.
Starting point is 00:01:58 Damn, I can't see you wearing that much. Is there a picture somewhere? Yeah. I saw him when he was probably 250s. For real? Yeah, around there. For sure. Was there like a health scare or what sparked it? picture somewhere yeah i saw him when he was probably 250s yeah around there yeah for sure was there like a health scare or what sparked it uh i mean dude honestly just like a bunch of stuff
Starting point is 00:02:10 i mean yeah obviously a health scare my dad passed away from a heart attack like 2016 um and i've had a high blood pressure just growing up so i just obviously wanted to get on top of that and just while i'm young and able to you know push myself in the gym uh just get on top of it other than that man it's just living a healthy lifestyle bro like i just don't want to be fat and just lazy and not taking care of myself so i started boxing and i've just fallen in love with it bro it's awesome wow and how'd you get into boxing uh i mean i really didn't know what i wanted to do i took a long break from youtube for a little bit. Yeah. Um, and I didn't really know where, like what direction I wanted to go in. And I was like, dude, if I can just kind of show people my fitness journey, um, I think that will touch a lot of people and help out a lot of people. And then, uh, Frazier and Jarvis hit me up when I was living in Florida and they're like, yo, you want to fight? And I never really thought about fighting, but I was like, I definitely can. Like, I'm not scared to fight. I definitely would get in there. And then I went to a gym in Miami.
Starting point is 00:03:08 I didn't really like to coach over there. And then they're like, yeah, we're moving to Vegas if you want to come out and just train at the Mayweather gym and see how you like it. And then I've been there since like January, beginning of January. And just haven't really looked back. Just going full force, man, like twice a day. Just eating really good and just staying on top of my stuff. What is your diet like? So my diet's a little bit different than a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I always just say this. Like everyone's body's different. I eat one meal a day. Same. Yeah, it's just what works with me. I don't eat any carbs. So I cut out like bread. And I just get my carbs from like fruit and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:03:44 No rice, no pasta, stuff like that no rice no pasta nothing like that and uh it's just brother weight just falls off man when you do so you eat meat you still eat meat yeah yeah beans beans beans yeah i can eat beans and stuff like that but uh i cut out a red meat actually it's not really because i think it's bad for you it's just for me when i'm training i anytime i eat it and i wake up, I just feel slower. So I don't really eat red meat much anymore. So basically just like, I'll just wake up in the morning, have a cup of tea, have like an orange or an apple or something. And then I'll go to the gym, work out for like two or three hours, come home. And then that's when I'll kind of get into having my first meal of like
Starting point is 00:04:21 ground turkey, a little bit of salad super light too and then at night i'll have some more fruit and that's really it nice well how are you like what do you what are you doing to make money right now uh youtube and stuff and then uh i'm getting into just like management stuff oh left management yeah when he said management i knew yeah we're working on that okay yeah so we just uh started doing a little bit of that so hopefully that goes that goes well yeah some big money in that girls need it i didn't realize how many of them well they don't know how to market yeah yeah some of them don't but yeah i mean it's not it's not only just the marketing i feel like it's just also just guidance because like i've been in the social media world for so long and I've just gathered so
Starting point is 00:05:05 much information and like It's just if I can just share that with these new up-and-coming creators and you know, just help them build a career for themselves It's a good thing to do. Where do you see social media heading? Cuz you've been in for like 10 plus years Yeah, I see it shifting. Dude. There's this with this AI stuff and I don't know. I don't even know man Who knows that's the thing like you really never know with this ai stuff and i don't bro i don't even know man who knows that's the thing like you really never know with this kind of stuff it's always like just like kind of like this is kind of a weird example you have a ton of long-form content that you want to turn into short form well look no further than opus pro this site's been a game changer for me as a podcast host
Starting point is 00:05:41 check out opus pro in the description down below 50% off. It's helped me make clips, it's helped me make them fast, efficiently and some of the clips have gone on to generate millions of views. As you can see in the demonstration here guys all you got to do is type in a YouTube URL Opus Pro will generate anywhere from 10 to 20 clips and you could play around with the color, text color, subtitle, font, do whatever you want to make it your own unique style it even has subtitles lets you play around with the text but you play around with the colors uses advanced AI technology generate clips it even scores the clips based off how viral it thinks it will go so it's really useful guys you're
Starting point is 00:06:22 looking to save some time save some money video clip editors You're pretty expensive these days check out Opus Pro link is in the description down below like the fortnight phase You know fortnight just kind of came out of nowhere and then boom bro like all these kids making millions of dollars They're same thing as pants comes out of nowhere And now there's all these girls making so much money like money. can't even really comprehend you know what i mean but um so i mean i feel like it's just it's headed in my opinion it's headed in a good direction i mean it's given creating jobs for people people are are able to support their families and stuff so i mean yeah it seems like it's going in the right direction right you were big into esports right yeah i mean i was a part of a huge esports org so
Starting point is 00:07:06 i mean yeah definitely yeah what do you think caused it to kind of fall off because like fortnite was i feel like the pinnacle yeah um i think tiktok bro i think just like tiktok and just short form content kind of is like is the wave now like people's attention spans are kind of just going lower and lower and like no no attention span yeah literally bro like right now it's like seven seconds bro i think it's lower now yeah something like that yeah so like what do you do exactly so like people aren't just gonna sit there and just watch like right right you know what i mean they're not gonna sit there and watch a two hour three hour event uh although i will say like there is still some esports that are
Starting point is 00:07:43 doing really well like counter-strike i feel like that's just like a staple in eSports which is always gonna do well I know Valorant's doing pretty well now and I mean I come from the Call of Duty world and To be honest, bro I think with COD it's just a divide between like the developers of the game and the people who are the pro players It's just they both don't see eye to eye and it's just kind of what's the few there is it i think it's just like they i mean obviously like activision and all them they want to make as much money as they can and they're not listening to what the pros want you know what i mean so if you're not making the people who are playing your game competitively happy then your viewership's gonna i would actually link up with them just to make up. Well, how much money are the pros bringing in?
Starting point is 00:08:25 You got to see it from both sides, I think. Exactly. Well, you want to appease the audience, though. You got to appease them. The pros aren't the audience, though. Well, it's the, so they're the client, the clientele base. So if it's hindering the growth of the game, I think that it wouldn't hurt to have a conversation with them.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Agreed. What would it hurt? Agreed. Yeah. I mean, also another thing, I'm going to just say it, bro. The game sucks What would it hurt? Agreed. Yeah, I mean, also another thing. I'm going to just say it, bro. The game sucks. The new one?
Starting point is 00:08:47 Yeah, like, that's the problem. Like, when back in the day, bro, playing, like, MW2, COD 4, I would sit there for literally, like, days, bro. And, like, try to skip school, fake sick, all that kind of stuff, bro. Now, I just don't even have the urge to even, like, I haven't even played the new COD.
Starting point is 00:09:01 Really? Like, at all. Literally not once. I stopped following it after their, did they do a Battle Royale one? Yeah, like, they have Warzone and all that kind of stuff. And even Warzone, bro, like, even, like, the regular players, like, their audience, like, hate the game. Like, it's just not where it's supposed to be, and, like, they just don't do anything about it.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Do you think it's because releasing one a year is too fast? Do you think they should take more time? Yeah, I mean, they tried to do this thing where like they dropped warzone before they dropped or they dropped the new cod before they dropped the new warzone and uh it was doing pretty well at the start and then people started to realize like we like the older one better you know what i mean so i feel like it's also like players just aren't enjoying the game like at all right um in in all aspects of eSports or just like content creation and all that kind of stuff I mean, I think Call of Duty in general content creation wise the viewership has been down since like 2015 2014. Yeah, the peak was when I was in like middle school high school
Starting point is 00:09:56 I think yeah, yeah So you remember like cut comms and all that kind of stuff like people don't really watch that stuff anymore Wow, and again, I guess that goes back to the attention span being literally less than seven seconds. You could just go on TikTok and watch like a con clip. Yeah. The dopamine from TikTok is insane. You said the dopamine? Like, no, for real though.
Starting point is 00:10:15 Like every video is like, this is, you get addicted. Yeah. I try to, I mean, I have to stay on it obviously because it's my job and I got to be around that stuff. But I try to stay away from like the short form content content as much as I can even though I starting to create it You know, yeah. Well, I like looking at it for podcast ideas and video ideas. Yeah, I try to use it for business Yeah, but people get addicted like your study it more so and figure out you know, what's what the why behind it? Yeah, even the scary thing is just like little kids man Like I remember growing up like i'd
Starting point is 00:10:45 always be outside just with my friends so you don't ever see kids outside no bro like i don't even i think bike sales are down like dude don't think about it when that's time a kid got hit on the bike but that's how you almost hit a kid on the bike yeah you're right bro no just just wait when that was the last time you almost hit a kid they're all worried about their internet going out where are the kids it's like do they even exist when i see kids playing in my neighborhood now i'm like oh my gosh yeah bro you're in awe yeah it's like it's rare you don't see like parks are just nice like it's just nice places now you don't ever not dead now and like bro that's another thing with boxing that i just i love being around just
Starting point is 00:11:24 that atmosphere man because like there's even like kids in there that are just training and like these kids are like there's a kid in there carmel morton i think he's uh 17. light skin cat yeah nice bro nice he is the future of boxing he's not good yeah like everyone likes all the top boxers know who he is like anthony joshua falls him on instagram like nice for all these people he kind of looked like tank a little bit yeah everyone says it's like a mini tank yeah but uh he's 17 bro and like you can tell this kid does not game like he's just at the gym constantly like he'll get to the gym do an entire workout spar and then like i'll see on instagram like a couple hours later he's out in different gym sparring and like bro he puts in work bro so just being around that is super motivating and uh even like younger than him bro there's like kids
Starting point is 00:12:09 in there who are just i mean just trying to stay out of trouble you know what i mean so their parents just throw them in that gym and it builds a lot of discipline so how do you feel like um the celebrity boxing is i kind of feel like it's making boxing relevant i feel like it's not taking over but it's taking a toll like it's it's it's it's making its way although they you know they try to shame it yeah bro that's the thing like so i know a lot of pros and like people who are like you know old school boxing fans yeah they kind of don't i don't really mess with it that much right i mean bro it's bringing light to your to your sport absolutely and it's bringing numbers that you guys have never seen before i mean even like the ryan garcia tank fight i mean bro a lot of the big influencers were promoting that like without even knowing you know tweeting about it
Starting point is 00:12:53 and all that kind of stuff so i think it's just it all comes full circle man everyone's helping each other out and i think it's a good thing um and even like for these boxes man it's hard as a boxer like even at our gym there's some boxers that are like really good and they just don't have that social media following they haven't been trained to be able to you know build something like that so it's also cool when we're in there you know they're helping us get better and you know we can help them right and kind of boost their socials a little bit and get their names more out there because how do you get big fights bro you got to have a big name you know how relevant do you feel jake paul was in that like that re like that resurrection of boxing i feel like he
Starting point is 00:13:32 he was he dude a lot of people a lot of people hate on jake bro and like obviously in a sport like that you're gonna have haters you're gonna have people who love you but bro he in my opinion he brought a new light to it that has never been seen he did for sure even for us bro i mean look what he's doing from like even for me like yeah i'm gonna be fighting soon yeah like that wouldn't have been possible if he wasn't throwing those events so i mean it's just i thank you and uh i'm sure everyone feels the same way and the influence you're seeing and if you don't i feel like you're just lying to yourself you You know what I mean? Like you got to, it's always, you got to remember who started doing something like that. So him, Jake Paul or Jake Logan, KSI, like all those guys, man, they're, they're just
Starting point is 00:14:13 bringing this stuff to a new wave. So are you worried about any permanent brain damage with boxing? Uh, my mom is, uh, I don't, I mean, no, I don't think so, man. Like you just got to learn how to defend yourself. I mean, if you get knocked out, there's nothing you can really do. You're so long. You shouldn't be getting touched. Nah, bro.
Starting point is 00:14:30 I mean, the way I've been training. What is your wingspan? I think like 82, something like that. That's 6'10". I could be wrong. I could be wrong. You shouldn't get touched. That's 6'10", bro.
Starting point is 00:14:40 If you get touched, you got a lot of work to do. Yeah. No, but that's the thing, bro. Your jab should win the fight. For sure. So, like, that's a big thing that my coach really gets me working on is, like, learning your distance and, like, just your jab, bro. I get in that gym and, like, some days I'll walk in and Otis will just be, like, get on the bag. You're throwing, like, 5,000 jabs.
Starting point is 00:14:59 5,000? Bro, you leave that place, bro, and your arm is, like, falling off, bro. Yeah. And, like, they do not let you bullshit around like if they see you messing around like they'll whoop your ass bro really yeah you gotta you gotta listen and you and i mean it helps bro like i've been boxing for what like six seven months and like the amount of like progress i've seen in myself it's it's crazy so i'll be ready bro i'll be ready do you have a dominant hand uh doesn't
Starting point is 00:15:26 matter bro you're gonna keep the mystery for the fight left hand right hand uppercut yeah i mean bro i just i'm working on all my tools bro you have to you gotta you never know what situation you're gonna get into in there so you gotta be ready for whatever wow who are some people you like watching in the youtube boxing scene salt poppy is definitely someone i just i think he's just super fun to watch he's and that's the thing with influencer boxing man like it adds personality to boxing you know what i mean so all the shit talking and all that kind of stuff all the build-up to the fight it's uh definitely something i'm super excited for yeah um but i mean all everyone bro like i i honestly don't miss an event i love watching
Starting point is 00:16:05 just love watching boxing in general who do you think is the best right now in the youtube boxing scene like do i gotta say jake because like he's he's fought so much but at the same time jake is the most consistent i like ksi i think ksi is um he has a lot of heart yeah i think jake jake is skilled jake jake has worked on his craft you got to respect him as a boxer now yeah i could be jake uh i think it'll be a good fight yeah i'm gonna be honest with you i think it's a good fight but i'm gonna go with jake i'm gonna give jake the edge because of technicalities no no not even technicalities the way that uh he reads boxers uh the way he throws his counters uh ksi, he's aggressive.
Starting point is 00:16:46 He's quick. He's more unorthodox. Yeah, but I just like Jake because obviously his skill level, he's fought. He's fought some. More experience. Right. But I think if they were to fight, I'm going to give Jake. I would go Jake, I think.
Starting point is 00:16:59 Yeah, the only thing I would say is I don't think Jake has fought someone who fights like KSI does. That's true. So just that super aggressive, constant pressure. You know what I mean? I think the closest was my man, UFC. Tyrone Woodley. Tyrone Woodley. That was the closest.
Starting point is 00:17:16 And that was actually a f***ing tough fight. Both fights. Yeah, no, bro. The thing is, Jake and KSI, they're always going back and forth. You're not boxing anyone worthwhile. Tyrone Woodley is probably the closest that applied that much pressure as far as from uh boxing skill set standpoint i mean he you got to give it to him like bro he beat anderson silver bro yeah like you can say anything you want he's an mma fighter he's this he's that
Starting point is 00:17:41 it's bro it's anderson silver i'm going with I'm going with it don't matter there's a lot of mental to it too oh yeah bro I mean just even just like training wise like there's it's it's a lot of it is mental like you want to go in there and I'm getting thrown in there with like world champions and they're my coach is like yeah you're sparring him like bro if you're not mentally prepared in there you're gonna crash and burn instantly so you got to be ready no matter what and then the headgear the breathing yeah mouthpiece in with with headgear it's a different yeah bro you know it's totally different you know and it's quiet it's tough to replicate yeah bro i've been like heavily working on my cardio it's one thing like i'm really really trying to get yeah you know wherever i can get it to at the top I run every single day
Starting point is 00:18:26 But bro There is no cardio like sparring really at all like just you even when you're like not landing your punches You're missing punches or your head your punches are glazing off a shoulder especially with bigger people like the people that I'm sparring like they're so heavy and Like it's just bro. You throw a punch hits their shoulder and you're like like take some energy out of you bro cuz energy has to go somewhere yeah you actually use more energy missing yeah I mean think about it cuz like when you're following through and a punch and especially when you're throwing a power punch like brats you're exerting all your energy and you're trying to you
Starting point is 00:19:01 know transfer all your body weight into one position and that's important too yeah transfer a body weight because you can throw punches they have no power but once you know how to transfer that body weight turn the leg the hip it it's different the punch is way different bro honestly i feel lucky that i'm a heavyweight because like i'll be sparring like you know lightweights and featherweights and all that kind of stuff just to kind of – we just move around or whatever. Yeah. Bro, they're so fast. Really?
Starting point is 00:19:29 Like, dude, it is – like, sparring heavyweights and sparring people that are, like, Jake's size or, like, Jarvis' size or someone like that, bro, it's a totally different ballgame because they're just constantly moving, constantly moving around. Their footwork is immaculate. Yeah. constantly moving around their footwork is immaculate yeah so at least with heavyweights you know unless someone is there's uh antonio zapata who who uh trains out of mayweather i spar him a lot he's like my main sparring partner and he's like one of the only heavyweights i've ever really seen who like is constantly moving and like just ducking and just throwing jabs quick quick quick quick so that's kind of what i'm the style that i'm trying to go for um which is why i kind of brought my weight down a little bit more so i'm more mobile i can move around a little bit more yeah so but heavyweights there's more knockouts right i mean bro if you get caught if you get
Starting point is 00:20:14 caught with one of those heavyweights bro that's just like getting hit by a sledgehammer yeah bro it's different it's a lot of weight bro you talking about 220 230 pounds and i'm light for a heavyweight what's your weight against 225 230 like that's pretty light for heavyweight like antonio who i'm talking about he walks around at like 275 280 and he's not fat like he's just solid what's your body five percent i have no idea bro you gotta be like six uh i don't know i don't even know i gotta get that checked out yeah boxing is i'm like i was telling them earlier like boxing is important i think all men should go to the gym not for bulk or muscle i think a skill set is to learn yeah bro i love it yeah even if you don't want
Starting point is 00:20:55 to go and like fight in an event like i even told sean i said he's long you look more confident than yeah yeah i mean bro like bro pull up on me you know what i'm like you learn a lot yeah all that back and forth on the internet i'm not into that yeah no bro and like that's kind of what it brings out of you like when you're in bro we're in the dog house bro like that get in there you have to bro you you got a good build for it dude he's i told him bro you're wrong it's going we got an advantage bro hard to beat you's so hard to beat you, bro. So hard to beat you. You keep your lead hand out there, bro.
Starting point is 00:21:29 It's hard for someone tall than you. The jab is blinded. At his size and his length, his jab is blinding because he's so long. So even if you're moving your head, if you keep it in front't get uh you really can't see where he's at because he's constantly you're constantly trying to get away from the jab and counter that but if he's keeping it in front he's long so it'll it'll it's blinding in the sense of you lose him right yeah and it keeps also just like defense wise it you keep it is defense yeah exactly you get to just see like you you have much more understanding and more vision of just
Starting point is 00:22:05 shots coming your way because you know you're further back a little bit and like easier to counter and all that kind of stuff so i mean dude being long is yeah but i feel like when you're tall are you punching down i mean it depends on who i'm sparring obviously but i mean when i'm sparring heavyweights not really no you're more so punching some most heavyweights are so he's a big heavyweight yeah because you're six nine right yeah six six eight yeah that's that's a tall heavyweight is big like that's a big heavyweight but most heavyweights i mean most of the heavyweights you fought are smaller than you yeah yeah they're like six five six six six four ish around there but i mean other than like i mean bro i'm trying to think even like tyson fury deontay wilder they're
Starting point is 00:22:44 my height so like wow just picture that know, it kind of helps them. Yeah. So like, I mean, I watch where I watch them every single day. Really? Yeah. No, no, no, no. I just like watch YouTube videos. The thing with boxing is, bro, like you really got to take it seriously.
Starting point is 00:22:59 You really got to do your research. You really got to learn. You can't play boxing. You can play basketball. You can play football. It's not a game, bro. But you cannot play boxing because you can go to bed in there yeah that's true you're risking bro i got i got like when i first started obviously i didn't really know what i was doing and like they don't throw you right in there you got to make sure you
Starting point is 00:23:15 know you know how to defend yourself and all that stuff but i got a little bit overwhelmed when i was first in there and i got caught bro and after i got caught i was like all right you you ever been dropped no no no i've never been dropped no no you got a nice chin on you yeah yeah yeah okay yeah i can take a hit for sure okay but um bro you got it like he said bro you can't play boxing it's not a game i don't know what the hell you're doing in there bro gary bro like if you're not prepared that's why i always say like bro you have to be on your your diet your workout routine honestly even just like mentally bro the people that you're surrounding yourself with and just all that kind of stuff like everything needs to be
