local time but it's okay it's okay
because tonight you saw one of the most
devastating knockouts I have ever seen
live from in my opinion the baddest man
in the planet that is how you do it that
is how you deal with it and uh over to
the floor for questions but before we go
to the floor for questions AJ just a
couple of words a beautiful performance
a great event again in Saudi God is good
God is good God is good we got the W um
thanks to my coach as well you know um
yeah honestly thank you as well Jo it is
um we get in there we give our best and
these guys like they put in a lot of
time to push me in the gym shout out to
all my sparing Partners as well but yeah
as I say just want to give a thanks to
my team my my extended team as well
they're all out there the man them as
well my family and friends that support
me as well my close Nick family and
friends and God is good that's what I
just keep on saying um and thank you to
Francis andu as well for taking part and
making boxing great again okay guys to
the floor for questions if if you wait
until uh you're called for the question
yes R is this live yeah is it on what
channel
uh Queen shock shock 28.com
shock what I going to say like the or
something yeah that as
well same
thing
yeah
know have sucessful
like who knows who knows at the time
you're just doing what you do you're
just in that in that flow State going
with the flow riding the
wave and um yeah everything worked out
in my favor in the end but you know he's
a big guy strong guy talented guy so he
got up he looked pretty stable so I just
thought just keep doing what I'm doing
don't get carried away and uh what will
be will be and then we managed to drop
him I think it was three times before
well one two and then third one out so
the first time it was like okay you got
back up he looks good and just stay
consistent in terms of game plan you
have to ask my coach but for me you have
to have the will to win you can have a
game plan but if you ain't got the will
to follow it through you ain't going to
do it cuz it's one thing showing you to
do it and it's another thing actually
doing it with someone in front of you so
yeah um I got the will to win and that's
what's most
important yeah
thank you
bro
um did I expect a
win I give my best I don't like to
predict anything I'm telling you yeah
heavweight boxing is a a league of its
own um it's a different division so
anything can happen I just you know work
hard extremely hard I think I can work a
bit harder be a bit more dedicated but I
work as hard as I can and um put the
rest in God's hands in it and what will
be will be and it finished early because
I say that Destiny's already written in
it so if it was meant to go then it was
meant to go if it was meant to go 10
Rounds it was meant to go 10 Rounds if I
was going to win I won if I wasn't I
wasn't I don't over complicate it we we
got the job done and you know what's the
best thing is I can get back to the gym
and build on a on another solid training
camp and then I can get back in the ring
and do another job that's what I'm happy
about thank you
Matt
yeah no I didn't feel anything half of
these people thought he was going to
beat me and I can see all you look you
thought he was going to beat me so I
just do what I do do my best we got the
job done but I don't do it to prove
anything I just do it for
myself I'm going to repeat what Ben says
I've always had a tool bag full of tools
Ben just showing me which ones to use at
the right job and that's all it is so we
we work well together yeah just showing
me which tools to use for the
job
Tom yeah he can he's very strong I think
he should continue in boxing
um cuz heavyweight boxing as I said it's
a league of its own you get the big
punches you get people that are quick
you get like a fuding fuding power you
get like a snapping like a lightning
strike kind of power and he's up there
in terms of power in the clinch I felt
fine though I felt cool I thought hang
on a minute I could probably take him in
UFC actually when bit pushing and
pulling and that I thought oh I'm I'm
all right I thought i' be getting flung
everywhere but no I'm joking he's strong
um but I Stand My Ground it's a fight
and the it was in my favor tonight you

well and he's a dreamer he's a risk
taker look at what he's done honestly

when it comes to heavyweight boxing so I
don't get too ahead of myself I got to
keep my feet on the ground so I just
done what I needed to do to move on to
the next
stage thank
you coach likes to stud lot of video
footage with FR only having 10 Rounds
how did that differ
cation yeah you know Lee Wy does a hell
of a lot of of that side of things
putting together a scout and report and
that and um obviously he had to look at
certain tendencies that he had in his
MMA career certain tendencies that he
had in the tison fury fight and we was
confident that we gathered enough
information there to be able to put a
plan together to to see us the
victory well Andy wait
yeah
a would you ever you ever do it again
influencer M you call him an influencer
now next question yeah next question
it's a dangerous game man like he's a
he's a champion he is a champion would I
ever fight a champion again 100% Wally
you're
funny Wally yeah
around to to
a
mixture what was that what was that
what a
mix can't sit there sit next to
you okay guys you're R
him is like the
Undisputed manat and Alexander yeah that
would be good but why not fight them
both you know what I mean it shouldn't
really be one or the other I should have
the opportunity to compete with with
them both and also not just those two
there's so many other Fighters I want to
compete with but since you're asking me
about the winner I think both of them
are very credible uh Fighters and I'd
love the opportunity to face them at
some stage would you have would you have
a
choice
um whichever one's the fans favorite
because realistically that's that's all
we do it for um we do it for the fans
and yeah so whichever ones who in here
who's a better fighter to fight anyone
got any suggestions Fury or
usk Fury whoever wins Fury Fury whoever
wins yeah I'm I'm easy I think Eddie
will look at the business and all that
type of stuff and then present to me the
opportunity and then we'll go from there
yeah let's
go let's speak to the team
I go back to the cage and I just get the
letter through the door when it's time
to work and I'm just where are we going
I don't mind I'd love to fight back in
the UK but whatever the the team want to
do I'm I'm happy

motivational you are we all know your
story you ever actually take in how far
you've come things you Achi how many

just trying to collect as collect as
much as possible to make the count after
you know um I do not stop and start to
make what uh account on what I have done
I was just on my way climbing up on to
get stopped by AJ congratulation by the

power well he was quite special because
he stopped me he did what Tyson Fury
couldn't uhon couldn't done you know and
um that enough you know he wasn't my day
and he was he's just way better than me
today so yeah it sucks but it's the game
we all know
that
huh so in fact I didn't feel the
punch I think that's what that's what
the knockout is
about I don't I don't fear any pain
Derek that's how I know I was knocked
out this is
for intervie and I came up with a
nickname for I you the Superman of
Africa because the way you have come up
in the game done has been amazing for us
Africans yeah and uh and I say
fascinating for for me to give to you is
a Superman of Africa because most kids
in Africa right now look up to a so far
has been unbelievable keep on going
thank you bro thank you very much I

this morning I'll process it and then uh
see what's is the next step but maybe
MMA but uh you can be sure that I'm not
done here absolutely not that's the
energy yeah I'm not
done
yeah there was a point last year we said
was a headache think your f is it just
performances changed
mindset that the the stress of getting
to
Undisputed um yeah one step at a time I
was just thinking one step at a time
it's it's hard to become a champion let
alone a unified Champion let alone
Undisputed Champion so I just saying
that it's far
farfetched um think it's farfetched even
though it's it's close it's close but
who knows that's what I said earlier is
like we plan but it's certain things are
already written so if I get there I get
there and if I don't I don't but I'm not
