How was it?
19:12
Ah, eh...
19:14
Honestly, I've waited seven years for this.
19:16
It's been probably the best moment in my career so far to fight in front of all the people that have supported me through my whole career.
19:24
And friends, family, loved ones, kind of getting to finally see all the work that I've been putting into this sport for the past seven years.
19:34
To show it off to them has been brilliant, yeah.

100%, yeah,
20:51
we're on the rebuild.

What actually happened and how dark did it get for you in that time?
1:05
Yeah, unfortunately, I got turned away at the American border there in Dublin and I wasn't allowed to enter America at this time, which...
1:17
Like, I've been into America multiple times before, but this time I got refused.
1:22
And I just so happened to be on the biggest night of my career.
1:26
Yeah.
1:27
Unfortunately, and it was coming off the back of about, what, four or five fights falling through on the bounce in the space of about 18 months.
1:35
So yeah, it really hit me hard, that one did.
2:50
it.
