We were mightily impressed let’s get the verdict of the man himself now who’s waiting to talk to Chris J congratulations I think if you were looking for an example of your explosiveness we just saw it in the ring right now was this the performance that

You were looking for um yeah you know I trained for 12 rounds I was prepared for 12 rounds and if the knockout comes it comes take me through that knockout shot because it was a pretty quiet round up until that point for you when you landed that big punch

Um yeah he was very hesitant you know he wasn’t engaging much but um he was a bit too hesitant and he got clipped so that’s just how it goes this has been a strange week for you you land in Saudi Arabia as the ibf champion you step into

The ring without your world title belt did you take some of that frustration into the ring tonight I did but you know look at this place it’s beautiful you know I’m happy to be here happy to perform in front of the Saudi radian people thank you for having me [Applause]

Excellency man I’m pumped first round knockout I’m ready for the next fight what have the last 18 months meant to you because you knew for a long time you had the talent to be on this level over the last 18 months you’ve gotten bigger and better opportunities in terms of

Opponents and on stages like this the last 18 months is just all part of the journey you know what I mean I’m here I’m in the ring this is all that matters you know that’s all in the past and it’s all built to where I am now so I’m just

Excited to be here and I’m excited for the next step all right so what is that next step because you’re unquestionably the number one guy in the Cruiserweight division with or without a world title right now around your waist do you want to go get your old title back do you

Want a different one what’s on your mind man these dudes put the people in front of me and I just knock him out so that’s what I got to do congratulations GI thank you for my Eddie we’re going to turn to you he said he kind of put the

Onus on you there to find something for him next what you think that performance and what can you do with a guy like that yeah you’re talking about a already I believe a pound-for-pound talent you know you got a guy in Alexander usk that became Undisputed in the Cruiserweight

Division moved up and became unified in the heavyweight Division I believe ja is going to do exactly the same thing he should be standing here as ibf world champion but it doesn’t matter because everybody knows every fight fans know he’s the number one cruiserweight in the

World we’d love to be back here in Saudi Arabia in the first quarter of next year and win a world championship I’d like to see him become Undisputed in a cruiserweight division before he moves up to the heavyweight division and that is inevitable this is one of the most

Exciting fighters on the planet appreciate Eddie [Applause] guys than Chris and they’re posing for the photographs J operti just another day in the live from professional career of one of the best fighters on the planet right now
