What Was Said? 

Speaking after the bout, Nikita Tszyu said that he didn’t expect his Darkon Dryden to be that strong in the ring. 

The 24-year-old admitted that he had sleepless nights and was nervous ahead of the fight. 

“That was as close to a chess match as I bring. He brought the fire. Something inside me just had to match it. Didn’t expect him to be this tough, honestly. Got me with a few body shots. It was a great learning experience for me. I’ve never been so in tune with myself, so in tune with a particular task, and for the past three weeks, I’ve just been living, breathing and thinking about this. And it came to be.” 

Big Brother Tim praised Nikita for his outstanding performance as he cheekily pointed to a new addition to Nikita’s diet that played a role – beef liver.
