When asked about the emotions experienced throughout the athlete's preparation, Mix was sincere in stating that the process made him happier than his own achievements.
“I love Tatiana so much, she’s going to be my wife. She’s my fiancée now, I’ve been with her for almost four years. I think this fight will mean even more to me than mine, to be honest. Helping her, seeing the hardships she’s been through, seeing her struggle, it almost brings tears to my eyes when I think about it. That’s why I try to help her the way I do, that’s why I’m here, I’ll support her 100%,” he concluded.
