- First time fighting anyone in the top 20+ P4P

- First time fighting an elite boxer/counterstriker
- First time fighting a superior athlete
Based on his response during his Q&A where he said he is scared to lose his undefeated record and gets very nervous before fights, I think this growing list of firsts will bode too much for him. He has proven with his recent social media posts regarding rap, that he is mentally very weak and easily triggered by small, seemingly inane things. (I mean why is he even getting infolved with this rap beef when he should be focused on training for Conor, very strange) So one can only imagine the amount of pressure he has placed on himself by constantly thinking about Conor over the past few years.
I have a feeling we will get similar scene to this after Conor besmirches him.
