01:21that are now.
01:23I felt like boxing wasn't for me, you know what I mean?
01:25I felt like I needed more grits, you know what I mean?
01:28More than a sport.
01:29And I felt like BKFC is meant for me.
01:32I got a chance to fight a BKFC 50 and I didn't know what to expect.
01:40And I was like, OK, OK, OK.
01:42And I tried it and I was like, damn, this is what I want to do forever.
01:46You know what I mean?
01:47The rest of my career fighting.
