For some f**g reason, people like him or don't like him... but he f*g hasn't earned it, doesn't f**g deserve it, but here we are. Give it to him. He sells a lot of fights. I'll go f*****g fight the man for five rounds. But no, he has not earned it. He doesn't f**g deserve it. Getting a decision with a welterweight off a couch is not f**g earning it.”
