“Maybe one day I can get a rematch with Nigel McGuiness at Wembley, I know Nigel was really big on it last year, but I, at the time, I wasn’t sure if he could hang with me. Now, he has worked his a** off and got himself in great shape, since then my health has a little bit deteriorated, so now I see that as a real possibility.”
