You’ve won multiple WBC belts in your career. What does that famous green and gold belt mean for you?<\/b><\/p>\n
Man, It’s the best! It’s the best out of all four of them. To me it means a lot.<\/i><\/p>\n
I believe you would like to add the WBC\u00a0Bridgerweight\u00a0belt to your collection.
\nAre talks in place for you to fight\u00a0Lucasz\u00a0Rozanski?
\n<\/b>
\nWe’re working on it. I would like to be back in the ring as soon as possible; probably in the fall or something.<\/i><\/p>\n
Lucasz\u00a0Rosanski\u00a0is undefeated and has 14 out of 15 wins by Knockout. What challenges does he pose for you at\u00a0Bridgerweight?
\n<\/b>
\nHe’s got the physical and the strength advantage. He’s bigger than me. But I believe in myself and that skills pay the bills. I have more experience and am the better fighter. The fire’s not done yet.<\/i><\/p>\n
Would that fight take place in\u00a0Saudia\u00a0Arabia?<\/b><\/p>\n
It looks like it.<\/i><\/p>\n
Describe your relationship with Mauricio\u00a0Sulaiman\u00a0through the years.<\/b><\/p>\n
We have a good relationship. Yeah, definitely. He always checks on me. I appreciate him a lot.<\/i><\/p>\n
I saw him here in Dubai and he was at the last fight in Saudi.<\/p>\n
I told him: when you come to\u00a0to\u00a0Saudi, don’t forget my personal belt. He said don’t worry, it’s already packed!<\/p>\n
What do you think of the WBC’s efforts to develop boxing in the Middle East?<\/b><\/p>\n
It’s amazing, especially me being here and promoting shows here. I love it. You know, WBC have always been like a family to me, even before I was a champion.<\/i><\/p>\n
Whatever we do, they support and I’m glad that they are helping to build boxing in the Middle East..<\/b><\/p>\n
What is the appeal of Dubai for you?<\/b><\/p>\n
Dubai is the Vegas of the Middle East. I’ve been coming here since 2017. The Five Palm Jumeirah Hotel is one of my partners and I have a lot of friends, a lot of business partners; a lot of things going on here. I love it.<\/i><\/p>\n
What has it been like to visit Saudi Arabia?<\/b><\/p>\n
Man, Saudi Arabia is like a second home – same like here in the UAE. Their hospitality is second to none.<\/i><\/p>\n
They really take care of me. It’s a country that\u2019s growing now. They’re\u00a0gonna\u00a0do a lot more. They have vision.<\/p>\n
You\u2019re signed to Prince Khaled\u2019s Skill Challenge Entertainment and are represented by Amer Abdallah. What do they specifically bring to the fight promotion business?<\/b><\/p>\n
Prince Khaled loves boxing. He’s a big, big boxing fan \u2013 so he wants to create the biggest fights for the fans and for the fighters. He’s amazing for boxing.<\/i><\/p>\n
They work with everybody. They don’t care about politics, this promoter or that network; that doesn’t matter.<\/p>\n
(Amer is) My best friend, my brother and the business part is just bonus.<\/p>\n
Tell us a bit more about your humanitarian efforts and Team Jack.<\/b><\/p>\n
Right now we we’re working in Gambia with a friend of mine that has an amazing orphanage called the Squad Project. We have to feed a bunch of villages and distribute food.<\/i><\/p>\n
We do some stuff\u00a0\u00a0in Jordan also; we have a refugee camp that we support.<\/p>\n
Have WBC Cares been involved with your foundation?<\/b><\/p>\n
Yeah, with the Jack Foundation, yeah, they’ve been helping a lot all over the years since I’ve been since I had my foundation. So yeah, they helped both me and Amer (Abdallah) with everything and it’s been amazing.
\n<\/i>
\nWhat are 3 pieces of advice that you could give young people?<\/b><\/p>\n
Number one, always put God first. 2) Always believe in yourself. 3)Anything is possible.<\/i><\/p>\n
I might fight for my 4th division world title. When I started boxing, I never thought I was\u00a0gonna\u00a0do that and I’m not even done yet.<\/p>\n
It’s all about believing this stuff, have good people around you and stay positive.<\/p>\n
