“For me I’d rather prefer to fight soon because I’m still in the rhythm of things, and yeah in the last fight I didn’t have any damage. I was not knocked out, and it was like, even though I did lose, and I still believe nine out of 10 times I beat Ben Rothwell. Even though I did lose the fight, I didn’t have any damage, so what is the reason to not fight? Considering what I’m doing with my sparring partners, I know how dominant I am, I know what I’m doing to them, I know my cardio was excellent, I was in one of the best shapes ever. That being said, I would love a rematch with Ben. I still believe nine out of ten times I beat him easy. No sweat. You know, getting caught is part of the game. It’s the x-factor that exists. I’ve been fortunate to never really have been caught before like this, and yeah I’ve had like 75 fights by now. So considering that, bad luck happened. You know, in the sport you need a bit of luck on your side and Ben had it in our last fight. The luck was on his side.”
