Operating Officer for the Stafford Boxing Club Incorporated our non-profit organization, which is a yearly mentoring program for at-risk youth in the community, so we will be able to teach financial literacy communication discipline decision making, as well as campaigning for a premium education.
These are the foundation for the Stafford Boxing Club, these 20 mentees in our program here at Panola Way elementary school years from now, staff of boxing mentees will be known across the world.
Hey! What’S going on, what’s going on what what what’s going on we’re here, what’s happening, we back everybody for real, what’s up baby, nothing, much same old, same old! Well, it’s better! But better! I don’t know about you, but my wife look better than yours.
Yes, that’s the way I feel about the situation you feel me.
Okay, well deserved well deserved! Well, I’m lady Stafford, I’m an OG Stafford that has no cappuccino.
What’S good.
What’S going on babe um excited, especially about when our event March 29th, oh man, this one went down that was, like God did that’s one of the best of the best, God did the kids.
They were just so happy and appreciative.
Let me make that face that that one of them, so we had a food truck home, no, no, no, no! No! No first March, the 29 2023 was our event at Panola Way elementary school in Lithonia Georgia, and at this event we had truest Bank to come out and talk about financial literacy to our kids right back.
Thank you and uh.
We also had a food truck.
They had uh chicken pasta, no, actually chicken stir fry chicken, my bad chicken stir-fry from my guy as fresh treats uh off of Glenwood in Atlanta with ICS and they’re, not like the Italian Ice.
It’S like when you scoop it.
It’S like it’s ice cream and you have to eat, eat it with a spoon.
It’S delicious, it’s different, it’s different and then next thing you know you see that Watermark up there that RX water, they provided the the the liquids.
You know what I’m saying: we were drinking premium: alkaline medical grade, hydration for the kids, but anyway we also had a representative from Congressman Hank Johnson office to present us with a proclamation for the Stafford Boxing Club update so uh.
We made it to the United States Library of Congress, to God be the glory, we’re very grateful for that, but with that being said, I’m gon na.
Let you pick up what you was about to say.
I just had to put that out.
Oh no, that’s fine! That’S fine because I was just going to get straight to it, so I was really excited and I couldn’t wait for the kids to just start eating.
So when he put the first Spoonful in his mouth, he turned his head like this.
I’M just gon na turn.
It like like this both like this, and he said they were delicious and they loved it.
They enjoyed it.
They especially loved the water, yes, and I knew that they was just because it’s RX water and what we’ve said about the water before and they were happy.
They were grateful very respectful.
We also had um Two Gentlemen, come out from truest Bank to speak and your your somebody who you personally know as well: um Emerson, um, Canton Emerson, who is a junior at Georgia, State University, the Georgia State University for sure I am GSU hashtag No Cap, but We had him to come out and what I wanted to uh fulfill.
My agenda was to show the kids about uh what it takes to be disciplined in college, so they in school, and so I wanted to have somebody come out.
That’S already in school, and I want him to share his background.
So just a little bit about him, that’s his nickname! So he’s an army veteran he’s married he’s faithful to his wife.
That’S really the reason why I brought him out because around me you got to be faithful to your wife.
You can’t be messing around because I only want that type of spirit around me.
I don’t need that’s not how I get that I’m faithful to my wife.
So I like to surround my myself with other men who are who are married and faithful to their wife, but anyway, man got a good character.
Uh he’s um he’s a fitness trainer and I met him at Jordan, not Georgia, State but uh LA Fitness, maybe about three years ago, and I watched this dude for about two three years and you know I finally asked him.
I said: hey man uh.
I would really appreciate if you can come out and be a part of this.
I think that it’ll help you and what what you’re trying to accomplish so he agreed he came out um he enjoyed himself.
I had him to serve the kids, because at the Stafford Boxing Club mentoring program, our core values are to serve uh the community serve at risk.
You be a servant leader, that’s what we pride ourselves on, and so I want him to have an opportunity to kind of experience that and embrace the culture of what’s going on at the Stafford Boxing Club.
But I had him come out and he was representing Georgia State and then I had uh two people from uh from truest Bank uh.
Mr, I think his name white, but I know Miss James Blackmon and we also had their boss.
Cynthia shout out to Sarah Welch, who organized the volunteers from truer’s bank to come out and uh be a very instrumental part of the uh program.
It was a huge success, shout out to my player partner, Dr Corey Stegall principal over there at Panola Way elementary school man.
We appreciate you immensely man, I mean since the first day you have opened the doors uh to Panola Way.
Now not only that, but you roll out the red carpet for us and Panola Way is, is our birthing place? That’S where we started the Stafford Boxing Club mentoring program, and so we even have our own classroom uh room 111.
So we’re very grateful for your hospitality.
Also, we want to thank DeKalb County, a school district, um public relations department for coming out and providing the media coverage, so we’re looking forward to seeing some write-ups.
We will interview uh by DeKalb County school district, and then they had a photographer as well as a videographer, come out with a camera, a video, the whole thing.
It was an amazing event: uh shout out to Darren MacGyver for providing the uh financial literacy material.
The kids were just so excited about the material about Savings of financial literacy is very important and I think that’s what separates the Stafford Boxing Club compared to other boxing clubs, is that we incorporate and we stress the importance of financial literacy.
Everybody want to get the bag, but once you get the bag, you got ta learn how to manage that money.
You know how to stretch it got it saved, got ta, invest, got to make sure your credit score good.
It’S a lot of things that we teach in our program to uh fifth graders, because that’s what we catering to we have about 25 fifth graders in our in our program, and we and we’ll love them immensely.
We adore them.
They are a true blessing to our life and also with the financial literacy teaching them early.
When they become adults, they won’t be so eager to share their financials.
You know their privacy and also get caught up.
Is it the Ponzi scams too? Yeah Ponzi schemes and then a lot of the older people who are lonely way across on the other side because of the conversation and then they just end up spin, sending so much money like all their savings to somebody who they don’t even know.
They’Re not gon.
Na get financed, put it to you that way, yeah, because we put them on a p’s and q’s shout out to Chef Norm from fresh treats man.
I say man.
Let me tell you something about that relationship so Norm was scooping.
Italian ices at New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia uh at the uh Samsung Fitness gym, that’s where we met and what it was about.
What about? Well, I don’t know it was a while ago.
Well wait a minute: uh was it 2015.
, it could have been.
No, it was a little bit before 2015, so it was 2014.
between 2014 2015 because we were buying them yeah before the accident yeah, and so at the time me and my wife we were going through.
You know some difficult times or whatever, but it wasn’t nothing like personal against with us within us.
It was just life.
You know, life was throwing us some lemons, but we were making lemonade out of it.
We were squeezing it so it was some sugar in it drink it because it Bitter Sweet yeah.
We used that good shirt that the one in the brown package healthier baby.
You know what you missed the whole thing, but you’re doing this, so I said it has to be healthy sugar.
You just said sugar, so I’m making sure that we say that it’s healthy sugar that we put in there bless your heart so anyway, so we met Norm over at Samson gym and he started off with scooping Isis at the gym and he would put fruit in Them too yeah he put fruit on the thing, but I think he hidden so anyway.
You know during that time, and this is a very important lesson that I’m about to say be careful.
How you talk to people be careful, how you look at people, be careful how you judge people, because you never know what that person will become later on in life, and so with that being said, so knowing man, he was some Italian Ice Age.
Then he started.
You know doing some like real, healthy food type, fish, chicken, uh salmon and me and my wife.
We were like you know what I’m saying we were strapped for cat, but I’m like baby.
We got the soul into them, because no one was like: hey man, don’t work, no bro, we sowing into y’all bro.
You know what I mean so fast forward.
So now Norm has his own stationary building off of Glenwood.
He uh has a truck.
He just bought the truck, so he came out to an event to show off the truck and thing with hey man thing with clean bro that thing nice.
Then he about to open up another location and so me and Norm.
We were just at the truck and uh.
When everybody got served, they was it chicken, it was chicken stir fry yeah, chicken stir fry.
Then, on top of that uh the dessert was the yeah, the Icees and one of them I think, was cotton.
Candy man.
I don’t know it just had many flavors, it was just like I don’t know it was good.
So man, I just had a revelation.
I said no, I’m this crazy bird like bro.
This is how me and you met each other bro when you were serving ice and now bro.
You got your truck.
You serving the king, you helping me with my event: bro you coming out bro.
So the more of the story is be careful who you entertain.
You know what I mean because you never know later on in the Life bro.
You may need that person to come and support what you got going on and don’t burn that bridge because you might need to you know what I’m saying cross that bridge and you might need to cross over back that bridge when you’re trying to go backwards.
Well not backwards, but when you got to go over to another place so that person might be the bread that you need to go over there and meet someone else, you feel me so man, you got to be careful just like folks that really slipped on us.
Man, I’m telling you they slipped on us.
They talk down on us, but you know what we do.
We just be quiet.
We should continue to stay humble.
We keep praying for people who wish them all the best, and even if we have the resources to to help someone even those that who mistreated us, we still blessing.
We just try to be.
You know people of the Gospel but we’re just trying to do what.
God would tell us to do now if he don’t tell us to do it, we’re not going to do it, but if he tell us to do it, we’re going to do it, but man shut up Norm fresh treats for blessing us man.
We man hey Brandon, so we got something coming up in May May.
The 3rd is going down again.
You know what I’m talking back yeah, I’m excited for that one too, but I want to talk about this Anthony Joshua fight, real quick, go ahead baby.
So before the fight happened, Anthony Josh, Anthony Joshua had said that if he loses to Franklin, he was going to retire and even before the fight.
I knew that he was going to come back strong serious.
I knew he was and he’s looking very athletic.
I believe he had to put on a few pounds.
Franklin had to lose a few pounds and I watched the fight.
I was impressed because guess what he was doing, he he didn’t use the peekaboo, but he did have his hands up like this.
The whole entire time and his defense was good, so he had changed his style.
Yes, I believe his trainer is a one now he needs to work on his cardio, because it did seem a little bit like his stamina.
His endurance was starting to get to him, which is under, which is understandable because he hasn’t been in the ring for a long time.
But what he would do sometimes is he’ll get tangled up with his opponent, and you know that just gives them a little bit of time to catch their breath, so his defense he had, he still has his power, his counters.
He was good and you can also tell that he was analyzing his opponent.
He didn’t just come in and do what he was supposed to do.
It was just like you know what I have a strategy that I’m going to use, which is way different.
So shout out to Anthony Joshua, we proud of you welcome back, so I think he may have like three other fights.
Keep it up, keep it up, bro for real bro yeah and then, with the fury and the you said fight they were originally planning on having it in Saudi Arabia.
Now a lot of people like to go to Saudi Arabia, that’s where the money is at.
Of course, one boy got all mine: they got that they got their tradition, they got this and they got generational.
It’S never gon na run out.
They got wealth, it’s a different type of money.
This this bag is different.
Yeah.
They don’t have riches, they got wealth.
It’S not gon na.
It’S never gon na run out, but you said had talked about talked about it with himself, so he was actually supposed to get 60 million, but now they changed it because at first they were like.
Oh, we can have it in December, but now they don’t even want to have the fight this year.
So I believe that they’re going to be in London, so he’s gon na have to take like a 40 cut, yeah yeah, 40, 40 cut or 40 percent cutting.
Oh wow yeah, so he’s gon na have to take all I know is that 4-0 and I was like all that hard work that he did, but it just is what it is, but he still wants to fight though, but even though it may be a 40 Cut you still can make money on the back end.
Oh yeah be crafty in the negotiation.
So a lot of times when you come to the table – and you know it’s not about what you think you deserve it’s about.
What you negotiate so negotiating is very important.
So when you come to the table, make sure you have a good representation and uh make sure that you did your homework so that you can be informed.
So you can demonstrate that you have knowledge about what’s going on in this contract and then also having someone who have experience and who can you know see things from a different perspective, make sure that y’all negotiate the best possible contract.
Because once you – and if you don’t understand it, you better go ask your lawyer: hey, look at here, don’t get your player partner in the parade or no go hey that little money to go.
Get you a well-represented, a well-represented uh legal advisor that specializes in contract negotiation.
Don’T get one that specializes in uh some other law.
You want someone, that’s special, yes, criminal! Now, bro you uh, no or or personal injury, or something like that.
No you! You want someone that has years of of practicing this particular law and that’s the unique thing about becoming a lawyer is so many laws I mean you know so many areas of laws, so many areas of law that you can you know uh dive into and and Specialize in so it’s just not about being a personal injury attorney or, let’s say, a a criminal, a defense attorney.
You know it’s so many other things in law that you can specialize in contract negotiation is something that you want to specialize in terms of having someone to you know be that representation for you thanks.
I have some women that I want to just talk about yeah.
This year, but before I do, men in Pacquiao wants to come back and he has his eyes on Connor Ben and the WBC has given Conor been a pass from the failed drug test.
The anti-doping and you know what they said.
They said that the reason why the he failed was because of a high consumption of eggs, so what I did is, I just did a little bit of some research about the testosterone level.
So eggs is a support of protein cholesterol.
Vitamin D Omega-3, which all ate in the production of testosterone and also the fat and cholesterol found in eggs, can also harm heart health and lead to diabetes and prostate.
But let me tell you: that’s if you eat too too many, but also what I found out is that the the tissue, that’s in the egg if it’s contaminated and then I’ve looked up well, how can an egg be contaminated? That’S salmonella and it said that studies have found traces of the clomiphene and it shows up in the egg tissue and in our system if consuming contaminated eggs.
So is food poisoning and food poisoning.
Also, if you likely cook the eggs, that’s just like with the chicken or meat, if you don’t cook it all the way, then you’re gon na get sick.
So I guess my is Okay, so in the tissue of the a and if you consume contaminated eggs, but didn’t say if you eat eggs that are not contaminated, it’s just a question.
Wouldn’T he have been like severely sick because I’ve had food.
I’Ve had food poisoning before and I was in the bathroom I was blood like I was it’s really sick.
So maybe it’s something that I don’t know.
Maybe someone out here.
That’S watching knows if you can just put that in the comments not trying to start anything, but I just want to know so check this out with some of the young ladies boxers Fighters athletes to be looking for in 2023, and I spent all day watching the Boxing watching them box, it’s like when you first start watching.
I know when you start watching all the boxing matches.
You watch one and then it’s like you know what I just want to watch another one.
I want to watch another one and it’s like all day.
You I spend all day just watching these boxing matches, especially with these women, so check this out, so um Michaela and Christina Lena taro.
They are co-futuring with the Joyce and versus the Zang fight, which I talked about before April 15th.
This is going to be a real, interesting find and I’m gon na tell you why, because Christina fought Alicia now you talking about a exciting fight entertaining these girls were brawling, one would throw a jab.
The other one was countering with something.
At one point it was like it was Non-Stop and I do have to say you really have to be that person to fight Alicia, because Alicia does not play because this young lady, she has some power in her punches and her stamina is great, so she’s fighting.
That’S somebody to look out for is Christina and also she fought Katie Taylor.
Now that was a great fight as well.
I really like that she had stamina and we all know that Katie’s technical, especially within her lateral movement, ramla Ali Junior featherweight yeah.
Now I watched her and she’s very interesting, and some people will slip on her just because she’s thin yeah I’ve seen her.
But you know what don’t think that way, because those thin girls, they can move much quicker at times and she is.
She does have some power in her punches and she also analyzes her opponent, because I was just watching her and I’m very impressed so watch out for her and she’s also balanced and always counter punching, which is great.
So I have another one.
Oh, let me just skip down to this young lady right here, so we have who I really like Christina.
I, like all the young ladies, but this one right here, this young lady, Beatrice Ferrero four I’ma, tell you a good fight with her would be Alicia.
Put those two together boy, let me tell you about her.
I had to write some notes when I was watching her fight great combos.
She has a power right hook, her Jabs her defense, she’s, accurate.
She um she likes to punch at the body jab at the body, her counters on point and she stays on you and I think that’s why I like her too, because she’s aggressive.
So she does remind me of Amanda because when Amanda is on you like as soon as the fight starts, Amanda just starts going on.
Amanda can have you on the ropes, but don’t let her have you in the corner.
It’S she’s just gon na keep going.
So this young lady right here please look out for her and I have one more Kim clavel and what happened was prior to her fight and also when the covet hit.
She had gotten injured and women or people like that.
Who don’t give up and that’s great for our title? I know she probably felt some type of way because who wouldn’t when you get injured and you get hurt something that you love to do and something that you had already planned to do.
You can get down.
But you need to look out for her as well and her.
She has great defense, offense speed, stamina, but the only thing is she really doesn’t have that much power, but she could always work on that.
So these are some of the young.
Ladies there’s more, I didn’t get to all of them, but these are some of the young boxers female boxers female Fighters, athletes that we need to be looking out for in 2023 and I’m ready for Clarissa Shields to come back yeah for sure you know.
So.
Oh listen come on one other thing too: everybody Spence and Crawford have been talking, yeah man getting people what they won’t be down, they’ve been talking to each other, so I’m thinking with them doing that.
I think I think, because the Javonte, Davis and Ryan Garcia yeah.
It’S it’s kind of you know, kicked the momentum yeah in terms of talks with that fight, because it’s like hey man, we give them the fans what they want yeah.
So now we got to give them what they want with this fight, because uh, I believe that Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather should have fought early on in the career, because I think it would have been a little bit more entertaining because both of them, in my humble Opinion they wasn’t at their Peak, you know, I mean they kind of was kind of past their Peak.
So so we didn’t get the best product.
We I mean we got a product, but it could have been better yeah.
So I I think, Earl, Spence and Terence Crawford y’all really need to you know, get this uh negotiation underway and and put some in writing yeah and uh.
We also want to see uh my man, um Devin, Heyman fight.
I think oh yeah Shakura Stevenson will be a good fight, but first he got to get past what Mama Chico yeah and if it could be made possible right if it could be made possible.
What do you think about Shakur and Javonte Davis if it could be that way? Well, uh.
I think Ryan Ryan Garcia talking about uh, going at you, of course yeah yeah yeah.
First, you got ta get through tanks, so we’re gon na see but baby yeah.
It was a a comment by one of our uh guests yeah.
I was gon na yeah.
His name is uh Mr Penny and he said: Can heavyweight boxing be popular like NFL basketball baseball if it if it was pushed properly in in America? I believe so man.
I really do.
I just think that, in order for this to to to manifest uh to that level, these Fighters got to stop ducking one another put your record.
I heard a quote by um: what’s my man name Roy Jones Jr, he said if you want to be the best you got ta pass the test.
Stop stop ducking man.
Yes! Well business.
Man stop ducking bruh, you know what I’m saying back in the day Fighters put their reputation.
They wreck it on the line check to to provide the the boxing Community with the fights that we want to see, and that’s why you know when I ain’t gon na lie.
That’S one of the things that Don King did right.
He provided the fights that the people wanted to see now, it’s all about.
You know: uh people chasing Floyd, Money, Mayweather record Being uh, you know being uh uh undefeated without a loss, and you know what Brad in order to really you know Be A Champion bro.
You know you got the cast the test if you want to be the best like Floyd Money, Mayweather got this thing TBE the best ever I mean he is the best at defensive.
His record says that he’s the best and baby.
You know what, since you had open it, I thought about it shout out to Christian from RX War.
We appreciate you bro no cap for real drink RX1 for real medical hydration, but yeah, but um but uh.
He said uh.
Mr pennant said that if he said, UFC is pointless because they knock out a lot of people at their hands.
Might as well do boxing and make big millions.
That way, I agree with you big dog.
I really do.
I really do not.
I ain’t gon na lie: uh Dana White.
He yeah it’s really about marketing, you know what I mean and Daniel white.
He gives the fights on yes, and he gives the fights that that that the UFC uh uh demographic wants to see, and that’s where you know boxing got the you know kind of stepped their game up.
You know, listen it folks! If, if, if Shakur Stevenson and uh uh Devin Haney is available, Let Them Fight that’ll be nice.
If uh, if, if Terence Crawford and Earl Spence is, is available, Let Them Fight, but sometimes you know, their managers will be in the way that trainers and there’s other people.
That’S in their ears, saying I don’t take this fight, because this is this: hey man, listen bro, y’all.
Take that chance in order for boxing to be as popular as the NBA, NFL and baseball, it has to provide the fights that people want to see.
Don’T put.
No can of tomato up there, bruh yeah, that’s what I’m saying which they do sometimes just like.
Just like with uh Fox, I mean uh, the NFL.
They have Marquee matchups.
They they know how to Market their product uh.
Commissioner Goodell, he does a great job with you know: marketing on different networks, uh the players.
You know their Marquee players, Marquee matchups baseball, you you have like um the All-Star game.
You got these International Superstars coming from all parts of the world and play game of baseball in the United States.
Then you got basketball um, you know you got some real good, talented basketball players and they are, you know, putting the emphasis on no key uh matchups, and so boxing is a sport where you know they don’t do that and that’s why I don’t think it’s as Popular as some of the major sports in the United States, because they ducking and dodging trying to have this perfect record but at the same time bro you losing a lot of money.
So if you, if you say you’re a champion, then go out and be the best like you know what I’m saying like my boy, um boots from Philadelphia, a lot of y’all wanted from that boy fight him.
You know what I’m saying: if, if you feel confident in yourself, then you should be willing to put your record and all the belts title everything on the line to fight the best.
In order to be the best, you got to pass the test and you can’t pass the test fight.
No canned tomatoes, you, especially if they’re putting in that work that they’re supposed to be putting in and not playing around for it, and you know what babe that goes along with our title, for this podcast show uh it costs to be the a champion.
Are you willing to pay the price you see what I’m saying because see a lot of you cats out here, you know y’all are on his social media.
You know doing Tick, Tock, you know and and trying to get likes and follow them.
Now.
I I you know that has its place, meaning like well, I have a certain amount of uh followers on social media.
So when it comes to the negotiation table, you can include that and say hey man because of these followers I’m gon na put you know what I’m saying gon na be more ratings gon na tune in you can’t give out too much, though okay, but you know You can use that as leverage to say: hey man um.
We want this this.
You know what I mean.
So social media definitely plays his role, but I just think a lot of you uh athletes today, yeah y’all, really not in it, For the Love of the Game, y’all in it for the love of the money and yes, uh money is the the the Ultimate Prize, But the old school, the money’s gon na, come you just got to put work in.
You feel what I’m saying.
If you, you know it costs to be a champion.
Everybody want to be a champion man.
You can ask any professional athlete that has become a champion in that Sport and asked them man.
Was it easy? They will tell you, no man, it costs, it costs a major price.
You know what I’m saying to be a champion and a lot of y’all.
It’S sweet, y’all, don’t want to work.
You know what I’m saying I was playing.
I ain’t gon na put in my life.
Thank you.
Thank you Holy Spirit.
I almost said something, but anyway see so anyway.
Man y’all doing it.
For you know all this, and you know it’s cap man.
Let me see what Mr pennant said.
He says: showtime and top range should just join forest team up.
Merge partnership work together.
I agree bro because uh.
What’S that um video, I mean: what’s that uh um network uh, Skybox, yeah, Skybox, Sky, yeah, Skybox foreign? I think it’s Sky boxing, whatever it’s this network out over there in London, and when I tell you man, they got a huge boxing followers man, I’m talking about man, they support the men and the women bro and over here in the United States, man.
It just be a lot of plexing going on.
You know what I mean like you know it just it’s just a lot Sky Sports box news, yeah, my bad Sky Sports, guys, [, Music, ] Sports just did a collaboration to expand boxing in the UK and London and so uh Bob Ingram’s son uh.
He was instrumental in getting that deal done, but he said it took him years to get that deal done.
But you know that’s one thing about business man, it’s a it’s a it’s a marathon bro and it ain’t gon na happen overnight and you have to continue to be consistent.
You Want To Be A Champion or you will pay the price paying the price mean.
You got to be disciplined, you got to be consistent.
You got to keep calling these folks just like to Lord baby everything man was she drinking boy, I’m talking about him, I’m like because it is so good.
It is.
I ain’t gon na lie.
Rx water is a real good, uh, alkaline water man and it’s you know it really is, and I’m just gon na say this one more time because say to those – and this is not even a sales pitch, I’m just being 100 one book.
If you do have an issue or trouble drinking water, I promise you we put our name on it.
You drink this.
You will never ever have a problem of wanting to drink water, especially RX water.
Again, okay, I’m done finish saying what you were saying me.
I forgot because [ Music ], oh man, hold up man hold up man, oh you say, hold up, I’m so proper.
You got to hear all the words uh.
Mr pennant says what? If Canada, Mexico, United States becomes one country, would anyone like that um think that each country has its own uniqueness and each country frames an identity that will generate interest? Uh one thing I would say about the country of Mexico: they really really really really really really do support their Fighters.
They really do so.
Does Canada.
I think the United States is just it’s just different man, it’s just so much stuff going on that.
You know people have the right to do this to do that, whereas you know people not really uh fighting for the country, they’re fighting for equal rights, whereas in Mexico they’re fighting for their country, Canada, they’re fighting for their country, but in in the United States, they’re.
Not they’re not really fighting for the country, and so they fighting for what the country can offer them a better life, equality, Etc et cetera, et cetera.
So do I think that it’ll be a good thing, one country? No, I don’t think so.
That’S in my humble opinion, but you may have something different, Mr dependent, but I don’t think that that should be a good idea because uh and then it also boils down to economics.
You know what I’m saying that bread so anytime, that you’re talking about cutting and slice that bread – you know you’re gon na – have a lot of pushback on it.
So I think that it will be best in the best interest of the sport of boxing that we uh continue to market the premier fighters in the Premier boxing matches um top rank they’ve been in the business for a long time.
Um and uh show time they’ve been in the business for a long time, but like with any and everything everybody got their season to dominate and then just like you has the Chicago Bulls, doing the Michael Jordan era.
They dominated you had the Celtics, you had the Lakers, you had uh, you know San Francisco 49ers.
You had New England um now you’ve seen the emergence of Kansas City, so some of these old school boxing um businesses that’s been in the business for a long time who have dominated the business.
Eventually, they will fade out in a new chapter in boxing a new face.
A new brand will come into a place to not say replace them, but you know bring a different style to the game.
That’S needed.
You know.
In order for things to survive, it got to have fresh, fresh blood, no meat, and I mean you don’t want things to get stagnant and it’ll just be the same old same old, because uh Top Rank and um Showtime HBO.
They have been the dominant um channels.
In the United States, where it relates to putting on the boxing um events but um Premiere boxing is doing good, uh and uh dancing is doing good, you know, so you have some up and coming promoters and and network um.
You know, that’s you know, trying to uh, you know, make a make an identity in the sport of boxing the staff of Boxing Club making one for real, please yeah.
I would like to see uh uh, Anthony, Joshua and Deontay Wilder fight.
I think that would be an awesome thing or they’ll make a lot of money see now that’s giving the fans what they want, though, let’s give them the fans what they want, but the title of this uh podcast show, let me take a self, is um.
The title of this show is uh, it calls to be a champion.
Are you willing to pay the price, and you know I’m an Avid Reader? I love to read.
I think my identity of who I am is because I’m a reader, I love to research.
That’S why, in the backdrop you got Georgia State University, which is a research University, it is the best university in America.
That’S my opinion and I stand on business about this, but uh this book.
Man here, um excuse me this book here, uh cust, the motto of mine is a great book and it’s real.
It’S it’s not really a big book, but I’m talking about it’s so rich with a lot of good information in it that I always keep it with them and uh.
So you mind: if I read this real quick, I do why I was just playing.
Are you so this generation feels like they are entitled to things you know, because I’m this I’m entitled you’re not entitled to nothing life is not promised to you, you’re not entitled to success.
You have to pay the price if you want to be a champion.
So in this book custom model he says surrender to the entitlement of success.
Let me repeat that to you, young whipper, snappers surrender to the entitlement of success committing to sacrificing is impossible before a fighter has made the decision in his mind that he definitely believes that boxing is his purpose before anything else, too many fighters are conflicted in terms Of their Clarity of about what they want out of life, you must sacrifice yourself to the huge responsibility of believing that you must act like a champion at all times.
Of course, acting and thinking like a champion means to invest as much as you can into your training and progress as an as in a fighter.
You need to First believe in your potential to succeed.
If you want to achieve your dreams and desires.
If you don’t, then you will not feel that there is a need to to commit to it with conviction.
You have to have conviction and it is impossible to achieve anything without conviction.
Surrendering to the idea of success is a sacrifice.
Is you listen to me? Do you follow me, do you understand where I’m coming from? Yes, sir, once that executive mental decision has been made in your mind, the next step for you is to absolutely pursue this dream with tunnel vision and focus you got to have tunnel vision, Focus young whippersnapper.
You can’t be on your phone all the time you got to turn off.
You got to get your sleep.
You can’t be thinking about them, softness with that little girl with that big butt can’t do it.
The girl’s gon na be here they just gon na get younger and finer.
Once you are subject to that great responsibility, you will find that it weighs heavy on your shoulders.
This is because, with great responsibility comes the potential for great guilt.
When you do not act like the champion, you’ve decided that you are your life will be consumed by the task of becoming successful.
Is you listening to me? Yes, sir? Do you follow me? Yes, sir? Yes, sir, you understand where I’m coming from: yes, sir: okay, very good yeah.
Lastly, for example, if you decide that you have the quality to become a champion each time, you do not act like a champion, you will feel guilty about that decision.
Surrendering to the entitlement of success is a huge responsibility, but if you act as a champion for the majority of the time, then prior to a match, you will feel more confident about your chances of winning.
Is you listening to me? Yes, sir? Do you follow me? Yes, sir, do you understand where I’m coming from? Yes, sir, very good, very good, and so with that being said, man it costs to be a champion? The question is: are you willing to pay the price you cannot skip that you got to enjoy the process.
You got to this.
This has to be something that if you don’t go to the gym, if you don’t work on your crap that day, you feel some type of way.
If you are kicking it with people – and you know you should be at the gym or as you supposed to be getting that road work in or are you supposed to be getting that water that pool workout? I don’t like to get too many of my uh.
You know whatever you know what I’m saying, but anyway, if you’re not doing what you’re supposed to be doing to become a champion, because our slogan as staff for boxing is baby, tell them about Stafford boxing.
The making of Champions.
Do you is you listening to me? Do you follow me? Oh yes, sir.
Yes, sir, do you understand where I’m coming from yes, sir staff for boxing them making a Champions? That’S what we pushing we pushing Champions over here if you’re, not trying to be a champion in your mind, see you may think.
I’M talking about being a fighter Champion, if that’s God’s, will for you to be a boxing champion.
But, most importantly, you will be a champion of character.
You will be a champion at classroom and I got a message for you for oh boy, wait till the spring break is over with boy and we go back and we meet our kids yeah, because my thing is: if you ain’t working, you’re twerking and what I’m Seeing is that you’re not working in the classroom, you’re twerking in the classroom on Tip Top when you enter the building at school you supposed to be working working on your mind, working on them grades, working on the assignment you in there twerking on Tick, Tock doing School hours, I got a problem with that.

You’Re gon na have to sacrifice some things.
Sometimes I know I had to we went to school, I’m just talking about individuals, we already know about it.

You sacrificed a lot, listen, you know what I will always sacrifice for my queen.
I give my life up for my queen and this ain’t talking don’t play with her.
I think I think everybody knows that I think you know you’ve been telling folks that too man, because if it wasn’t for God it wasn’t for my husband, I wouldn’t even be in this situation.
Vice versa, and I’m saying I’m only good.
It’S the woman in my life, you know what I’m saying she’s the marrow in my backbone.
You know, I think I don’t even have I can’t even I don’t even have anything to say, and I don’t want to force it, because it’s just not going to be right because you just said everything that had been said well check it out for the end.
