He further added, " What this guy's been through, we're all lucky that we got to see him fight tonight.

"I'm hearing rumours of other things that I didn't know about that you guys will hear about when he comes out later, I'm sure.

"Apparently, he was in the hospital, he broke his foot three weeks ago. So he has two broken toes and a bone in his foot that's broken or something like that. That's what his corner was telling me.

"He is one of the toughest human beings on the planet. He is just the number one pound for pound fighter in the world. And seriously, I have to start putting him up there at G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) status with whoever else you think is the G.O.A.T."
