I was hesitant to post this because I know nobody wants to sit through a fucking three-minute speech. But if it reaches even one person who’s going through a hard time, then it’s worth it.

Thank you again to @longislandboxingcharities for recognizing my hard work and commitment to the sweet science. 

Thank you to @bcassidy87 for the video and being so willing to help me share my story. 

I am grateful, but not satisfied. We still have a lot of work ahead. taken in Elmont, New York by @voodoopete

Thank you to everyone who came out to @longislandboxingcharities #NightAtTheMovies IV, featuring @ringsideinthemountains, at @pro_fitgymli Ronkonkoma 🥊

Born and raised on Long Island, it was an absolute honor to stand alongside two Long Island legends and two of the best to ever lace up the gloves.

We had the privilege of honoring Long Island’s first world champion, @buddymcgirtboxing, with the LIBC Lifetime Achievement Award, presented by none other than the great @gerryacooney.

Congratulations as well to Johnny Davis, who embodies everything the legendary Bobby Cassidy Sr. Award represents, presented by @lifeofcletus_ and to @voodoopete, the future of Long Island boxing, on being named our Prospect of the Year, presented by previous winner @zay.flaherty. 

Matt and I started this event four years ago, and to see it continue to grow each year means a lot to us. We couldn’t be more thankful for the opportunity to give back to Long Island boxing and to the sport we love. 🥊 taken in Long Island, NY by @voodoopete

A few ringside highlights from my last fight. As I mentioned this past weekend, I ruptured a tendon in my right hand just 60 seconds into the first round. Despite the pain and discomfort, I persevered, fought through all six rounds, and won a unanimous decision over a durable opponent. 

You never truly know how deep you can dig until you’re faced with adversity and have no choice but to keep pushing forward. by @voodoopete

I truly learned more about myself and boxing in this six round fight, than my past 6 fights combined. One minute into the first round, I cracked a right uppercut right onto my opponents hip. Instantly I felt an immense amount of pain, so much pain that I went tunnel visioned. My game plan went out the window, and I got into my own head. My usual mentality of seek and destroy—then became how the fuck am I gonna survive? 

I pride myself in having a great poker face, I couldn’t show my opponent that I have one hand down—with a rugged, tough, durable guy, this would give him more confidence to try to push me back. So, I do admit that I got a little machismo and took a more punches than I should’ve allowed. In moments like these, everything flies out of the fucking window and you fall to your lowest point of training. Up until you gain some more clarity of the situation. 

I tried to tell my corner that my hand was fucking destroyed between the third and fourth round but we were all in the heat of the moment. I kept it to myself and fought all six rounds, even using my right hand to still land big punches. The pain didn’t change, but I was willing to fight through it to complete the mission. 

If there’s anything you take from this: Life is going to seem like everything is stacked against you. You will naturally find the reasons to quit more attractive than the reasons to keep pushing. Do not fold. Dig deep. Do not quit because you will hate yourself in the end. 

Thank you to my sponsors for fueling the dream:
