“In 2022, I faced one of the hardest battles of my life. My father lost his struggle with mental health, and his suicide made me realize I needed to fight hard for my own well-being. I chose love over fear daily, resisting the urge to run and hide.
As I trained for the world championship, I unleashed my physical and spiritual stamina. This was my moment, the peak of my warrior's journey. My insecurities, fears, and doubts fueled my drive to win. But then, another battle arrived—a second emergency eye surgery. It halted my training and forced me to withdraw from the championship.
This setback taught me to prioritize my healing and accept life's unpredictable challenges. It wasn't just about winning anymore—it was about showing that anyone can achieve their dreams. It's about embracing strength and perseverance.
You are valued and deeply loved just for existing. Step into the ring of life and become the warrior you want to be. Align with your purpose and tap into your inner strength. Love is the ultimate winner.”

Hello everyone! Today, I met with my eye surgeon, who performed double eye surgery on me in November 2023. While I am pleased that my eyes continue to improve and heal, it still does not meet the minimum requirements set forth by the Pennsylvania Athletic Commission.
The repaired retina in my right eye is experiencing fluid accumulation, causing distortion in my vision. As a result, the surgeon has not medically cleared me to fight on July 13.
While I am devastated by this news, I have peace in my heart. A situation not in my control. Everything in my control, I’ve given 100% of myself to in preparation for this fight.
Over the next few days and weeks, my team and I are meeting with world class eye doctors and surgeons to explore my options, so I can have a more clear path to get back to world class boxing at a championship level.
I first want to thank my family and team, who have been working tirelessly around the clock in preparation for this fight (you know who you are).
I want to thank Tom Brown and @tgbpromotionss, who are 100% behind me. I want to thank the @ibfboxingofficial
