That was his ambition, and I think that, like all young fighters, when you\u2019re young, you all want to do the best, be the best, and obviously, once he turned pro, you see what a steady road and how difficult that can be.

It was like he\u2019d resigned himself to\u2026 he wasn\u2019t going to be the youngest champion because he\u2019d passed the age that Mike Tyson had won the title at, but he was so thrilled.
