"Brother, you can root for whoever you want and that's fine! The problem is you claiming something you don't even know and acting like I did something to you. When I was in the LFA and you were going to fight, the day before you came and called me while I was having coffee at the hotel and I was chewing. You didn't even ask if you could, and honestly, I told you that you should have asked me if you could record a video," the fighter wrote.

“Maybe you got angry because I called you out. But I didn’t think you were angry because we were having dinner together in Mexico and I was encouraging you while you were crying because you lost the fight. Now, when you win two fights you become all-powerful. Brother, I can lose 8 fights in a row!”, he concluded.
