00:30 Getting the fight was like a rocky story.
00:34 Steve was very clever, and he would think of ways to get under an opponent's skin, but I had no idea what hell was about to be unleashed.

01:17 This is called "Too Bad."
01:20 And the bell rang and I went down.
01:22 That hurts.
01:24 That's beautiful. Sorry. That's beautiful.
