Everybody's great when they're not tired.
This is when they're tired.
That's when the real champions come out.
That's when that real dog come out.
That's where I think the real truth comes out.
Because I think there are a lot of people who are very talented
who can make it there.
There are very few people who can deal with the pressure and stress
that happens when we're there.
I feel I'm the best ever.
It's not bragging a bozzin.
The proof is in the pudding.
In my mind, I'm always the best.
I am the greatest fighter of all times.
And when I hit you with a hard right hand,
you will fall.
You've got to win tomorrow.
You're going.
If you're passionate about what you're doing,
keep going, keep believing, reach for the stars.
Everything is always impossible until someone does it.
Maybe it's just a possible.
Maybe it's just.
never been done before that's perfectly fine with me but I'm gonna do it never
because limits like fears are often just been losing hungry dogs run
fast and let the big dogs eat if you look at the greats in any walk of life
the greats do things when they don't always want them and that's the separation
It means you have to be more disciplined than not discipline.
I wanted to be the best I could be, period.
I was waiting for you to smile at some of the compliments.
You didn't.
Smiling doesn't win you gold medals.
I'm too fast.
I'm too skillful, and I'm going to show everybody out there watching this show
and the whole world and the world will vow
and admit that I am the greatest of all times
when you see what I do to George Fuller.
I believe that whatever I put my mind to,
and if I was willing to make sacrifices,
and I was dedicated, that I could achieve absolutely anything.
I'm the best ever.
I'm the most brutal of Michigan, most ruthless champion they've ever been.
There's no one can stop me.
I'd like to take this chance to apologize to absolutely nobody.
Maybe someone's, you don't like me because maybe I'm too good.
In some, you lose some.
But you live.
You live to fight another day.
And I've always believed, like I'm the Michael Jordan of this industry.
When I'm on the air, I'm the one that will make you want to hear from me.
I don't care who I'm on the air, I don't care who it is.
It does not matter to me.
By the time I finish speaking, I am the one that you're going to want to listen to.
That's my attitude.
If this requires 100%, and you give me 99, I might want to fire you.
Because I'm not, I'm about getting the job done.
It's about the results.
And I think that, you know, unfortunately, when we look at our generation today, not enough people preach about that.
Because I think that we live in a society where people have become masters at pointing the finger at other people as to reasons why things don't get done.
I think there's too much explanation that goes on.
But the bottom line is you ain't getting it done.
And if you're not getting it done, I need somebody that can get it done.
I am of the belief that if you truly, truly adopt that belief in your soul,
So do you walk to work every day?
Not looking for excuses.
You're looking for a way for the job and get done.
And in most instances, you are going to be successful.
They're not.
You want to go with status quo.
You're perfectly fine with flowing along just to get along, safe, secure,
safe, secure, whatever.
But when you're trying to win, you're constantly looking to get better.
My philosophy is very, very simple when it comes to my family.
particularly, you know, me being a dad.
If they're hungry, it's because I'm starving.
I don't eat until they eat.
I'm not comfortable until they're comfortable.
I don't have unless they have.
That's the mentality, and that's the mentality that I strictly give for my mother.
And so for me, you know, having that kind of mentality, but what comes with that,
what comes with that is a certain work ethic that you have to put forth.
And it's a willingness to sacrifice.
Am I the most disciplined person in the world?
No.
Am I the most meticulous person in the world?
Like some people would believe?
No, I'm meticulous enough and I'm disciplined enough.
But I think the key thing is that the bottom line is everything to me.
And whatever their bottom line requires is what I'm going to do.
If the bottom line requires an excessive level of discipline, I'm going to do it.
But to me, it's whatever the moment or the situation demands.
And it's, I'm a bottom-lines oriented kind of person.
You don't assume that opportunities are waiting for you.
You know obstacles or standing in every doing life.
So that challenge that you have to embrace and you have to deal with,
that's hard to deal with when you have achieved.
You don't work hard to play hard.
You work hard to have the ability to play when you want to.
But there's a difference.
You handle your responsibilities first.
When you work hard and you have that sense of pride, it goes right out the window if you utilize your efforts in a long fashion.
But when you do what's right and it's based off of that effort that you put in, then you feel good about it because you took care of your responsibilities.
And I was not always confident. There's no doubt about that.
I've always had my insecurities.
What I firmly believed in was as it pertain to me was that I was that I was that I was not always confident about that.
to me is that I always worked hard.
I was never lazy.
I was always somebody that
believed in hard work.
Betting on yourself is believing in you.
Knowing who you are, wouldn't you worth
having an idea about it anyway
and willing to work towards that
to validate that reality.
That's betting on yourself.
It's your job.
And if you can't do it,
you're scrote.
scratch, claw, and evil.
We make excuses every day.
All of us as human beings.
On far more occasions than not,
I have to speak on the issue of accountability
as it pertains to the entire sports world.
And when it comes to the issue of accountability,
I get all of that from mom.
It happened with ESPN when my contract wasn't renewed
back in 2008.
I was sitting at the, I felt betrayed.
I felt ticked off.
My mother let me lick my wounds for a couple of days.
And then she said, what could you have done better?
You sure you didn't do anything?
And I thought about all of the stuff.
I'm like, what is she talking about?
This is just not true.
This is not right.
I work hard.
I do this.
I do that.
And then I started thinking about it.
Yeah, I was a pain in the ass.
I did kind of complain a little bit too much.
But the biggest thing that I remember doing
is that I always came to the bosses with problems.
I never came in them with solutions.
It was always about the problem, never the solution.
And I learned when I sat back and reflected on the mistakes that I had made in my career at the time,
I learned that no boss wants to talk to anybody that doesn't have solutions.
Instead of working around the clock trying to figure out what somebody else wants from you,
good or bad, there are moments that crystallizes it for you in your mind.
Pay attention and you'll see what they are.
Yeah.
And you'll know what to do accordingly.
That is what I believe makes me the best thing.
It's my commitment to excellence for the collective whole.
