โ€œPart of it is because Tony did tell me that I had opportunities to do other things. If I do want to tackle that fight and do another fight, whether itโ€™s boxing, bareknuckle, MMA, heโ€™ll give me the opportunity to. Then, all my other projects that Iโ€™ve been working on. That was part of it, the opportunity to do other things.โ€

โ€œThen, I looked at it, and I was like, man, we talked about Hurt Business and what we could have done with it, the Hurt Syndicate now. I was like, โ€˜If Iโ€™m going to go out, there are certain ways I want to go out.โ€™ I didnโ€™t get an opportunity to go out the way that I wanted to putting guys over having a feud with those guys. Another avenue I could be happy with is to be able to work with P and Shelton again, being able to run with that and have fun with it. Ultimately, we are a group that is good for the company. We have the ability to be able to build talent. If you go into a feud with us or youโ€™re on the mic against P, you have Shelton, me, whoever else we bring on. You have a lot of obstacles. You donโ€™t have to take out all of us because itโ€™s a lot to take out but you can go in there and battle and box with us, it will raise your value and put you at a different level. Ultimately, the numbers might get you, but if you are that guy, you can possibly beat us all. I want to have some fun for the last few years and help some guys and elevate some guys.โ€
