Just because I was training and working hard, that didn't make me champion or a good fighter. My lifestyle made me a good fighter.

So, when the time presented itself, that's who I already was. I was ready. I was already there.

If you go in from the rear, the customer-facing staff are all facing the wrong way and everybody starts their conversation on the back foot.
