00:00You posted on your social media towards the end of last year

00:03that you know, you're talking about,

00:05you know, it was a tough year.

00:07Obviously, like you talked about the waiting,

00:09the things that happened in your record,

00:11but you know, that you're focused right now,

00:12you have a renewed fire.

00:14What does that mean for you?

00:15What is the renewed fire?

00:16What do you, you know, do you,

00:17obviously your performances weren't

00:18lacking any fire ever before.

00:20Every time you step in that squared circle,

00:22you're ready to go, you're ready to mix it up.

00:24So, you know, what is a renewed fire

00:26for Rockstar Richardson, who seems to have fire

00:28every time he puts, you know, his fist up

00:30and gets ready to match up against his opponent?

00:34Um, you know, like just that one fight,

00:37like, you know, I could tell with the long layoff,

00:41it wasn't that, I was like, I always train hard,

00:44but there's a big difference between

00:46training hard and training hungry.

00:48Like, you know, it felt like, you know,

00:52training for like nine, 10 months without a fight,

00:56like, you know, I'm gonna train hard

00:59and I'm gonna train consistent.

00:59Like I'm not taking like down time,

01:02but there's a big difference between

01:04training hard and training hungry.

01:06Like, you know, I was, yeah, I was preparing

01:10to try to keep something instead of, you know,

01:15take something and that's just a different mindset.

01:18So like, yeah, I think I kind of stumbled,

01:21but you know, that was what the first loss

01:23I've taken in six, seven years.

01:27You know, it was, sometimes you need that

01:29to light a fire under your ass.

01:32So like, yeah, that definitely,

01:35that was definitely a wake up call.

01:36And then I felt like, you know, after that one loss,

01:40everybody was starting to doubt me.

01:44Like, you know, does this guy still have it?

01:47Like, you know, I think it would have made,

01:50after that, before the Larimore fight,

01:53I think a lot of guys were a little bit more willing

01:55to take the fight.

01:56And now after this Larimore fight,

01:59everybody's like, oh, okay, well,

02:01he's still not somebody that would really wanna,

02:04especially if like right now, if I don't have the belt,

02:06like a lot of guys aren't looking for this fight.

02:09Yeah, they'll try to, if I've got the belt around my waist,

02:14now they have no choice.

02:15But right now it's a scary prospect

02:21to fight me, especially without the strap right now.

02:24We have just 30 seconds left, but you know,

02:26you talked about this belt, that belt,

02:28talked about wanting it.

02:30If you win this fight,

02:31do you think there's any chance BKFC

02:32can keep you from that rematch?

02:35No, not at this point.

02:38Yeah, I don't know who they've met, who's gonna help me out.

02:40But like, I think it's undeniable after this next fight.
