I thought about it for a little bit. You know what? It does not matter. I did it. I beat him. I beat Ruiz.

We had two of our starters down for most of the game. I thought they defended Matt (Weeks) well. It was a pretty physical, fast tempo type of game. Keith (Jones) in foul trouble hurt us, obviously. Michael (Warren) in foul trouble hurt us still.

I thought we got lucky. Amity's playing a lot better. When you're a ranked team everybody comes after you and that's what Amity did. We were lucky to keep enough composure to get out of here with a win.

I was not thinking about the stuff still being in my system. But I can't look at the past. It was my fault. I wanted Ruiz. So I don't blame anybody but myself. Bottom line.

opponent.

We'll have the two best heavyweight fighters Saturday night _ me and Chris Byrd, ... When that bell rings, don't put your track shoes on.
