believe best concerned proud seemed stayed surprise took unlike
I was rapt with the win. I was never worried. I was only concerned that our preparation just wasn't long enough and he would get tired. I believe that was the best he showed so far. That wasn't our best preparation. But unlike some of his other fights, he never seemed to have any real lull. That was a surprise to me and made me feel good. I was very proud of him. He showed a lot of balls. He took a lot and stayed with Gabi the whole fight.

Hussy is a much smarter fighter. He knows where he went wrong and when I offered him this rematch, his confidence was unbelievable. He really thinks he can win and when you have got that confidence he can do it, especially when he has got that ability.
