What a day, what a journey.
I have been an athlete the majority of my life, testing my self physically is nothing new and although I knew this would be challenging, I had no idea what I was signing up for. I gave this absolutely everything.
Training in thailand, in the ring with Tyson fury, watching world champions spar ringside, the sparing sessions at different gyms, daily training, being worried before sessions then doing well, being confident before sessions then getting beat up, cutting weight, icing my face after sparing, shadow boxing 24/7, watching hours of boxing, endless chatGPT hours, selling over 35k of tickets for the fight night, raising 5k for men’s mental health.

Every single thing a first for me, every single thing was a challenge.
I’m a different person for the experience.
The respect I have for fighters is immense, the discipline and the mental toughness that is required to just be mid at this sport is something you have to experience to understand. If you think that a professional fighter doesn’t get nervous, doesn’t get anxious and he/she doesn’t test themself every day just as much as the beginner, you’d be very wrong.
Thank you to everyone who shared this with me, for all the messages of love and support, for the donations, for buying tickets and cheering me on. I’m truly blessed to have so many people in my corner.
To my beautiful and amazing wife
@soniamorano_ for letting me commit to this and losing me for the last 6 months. Coming to my sessions, listening to me break down my mistakes, pumping up and even holding pads. You are my queen. I love you.
@jontemets the time and effort you have given me has been incredible, I wouldn’t have had this opportunity without your support. Even during your own camp, you were there at every step. A coach yes, but a best mate first. Thank you
love you G. 3-0
