So, it\u2019s kind of funny. That was his claim to fame, right? He never turned pro. He ended up going in the military. He went through BUD\/S SEAL training, stuff like that. Was a combat engineer, I believe, which was like bombs and explosives and stuff like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut, you know, his claim to fame was, Mike knocked everybody out and I just got my butt whooped for three rounds straight, but he didn\u2019t knock me out. He goes, \u201cBut I don\u2019t remember like the next day or that day.\u201d He goes, \u201cHe like knocked some memory out of me for a couple days.\u201d\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut, the cool part is, so my dad, Mike is a pigeon guy.
