“It’s not going to be hard to adjust to going back to the States. I boxed all around the world as an amateur.

“Back then I saw the full spectrum. I boxed in the Olympics and then in much smaller competitions with hardly anyone there. I know how to adjust.

“Looking back on my last fight I’m critical of myself. I would have liked to have got him out of there but we worked on some new things, which was good. This kind of performance will set me up for the bigger fights.”
