The Rock said, “The guy is a beast. He is an animal. I’ve got to know him a little bit via text message. I’ve always been a big fan of him. He’s decorated. He comes from a world of amateur wrestling and these guys are beast. National champion, and all American. I think he always comes out in great shape. He looks the part, he looks like the champion. I always got nothing but great things to say about him.”
He went on to say, “His last couple of fights, especially his last fight he was so precise, dominant where he needed to be. Cool and calm in the pockets. I can’t wait and it’s the reason why he’s undefeated.”
