Not at all Shaun. It's quite an unbelievable story though.
When he was younger he was a skinny, shy kid. Very clever and dedicated to his schooling. However he was picked on, bullied and even beat up a fair bit. When he began going out he would hang around us (his sister was part of our circle of friends) so he wasn't picked on. On a couple occasions he'd come to us because somebody was starting him.
He started training to basically defend himself, hit the gym pretty hard and then the next thing we knew he was fighting in competitions.
Back then, I would never have imagined he would go on to achieve what he has done.
