00:05never to challenge Israel or any other African fighter on being the first
00:13African fighter it wasn't that it was the first residing and that is still the
00:18fact I mean it's it's it doesn't know but nothing can change that so I know at
00:24the at the press I went over to him actually after a fight when he got super
00:27emotional you know that was within him that wasn't nothing I never went off to
00:33his family so I just wanted to make sure that you know I have parents too and I
