The only reason why I lost it is because we see how corrupt California is. Gavin Newsome and all those [expletive]. I straight up won that [expletive] fight. I straight up won that fight. I threw more shots, he never rocked me. I just put my hands up, I let him throw and then, \u2018Bam,\u2019 I rocked his world. I thinking this is a fight, but I guess not in California. I got nothing personal against Nate. I have a lot of admiration for what he\u2019s done in his career, but when we\u2019re in there fighting, I feel way better in all aspects of fighting.
