Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Tder and Rich.

And boxing isger and Rich.

And boxing is alive and well here in the Commonwealth and all throughout New England.

And it's guys like this that are keeping it this way.

Great.

Everyone loves a comeback story.

And Danny O'Connor is a guy who is going to be this Thursday night at the Agannis Arena coming back and making his return to the ring. And what a story it is. It's Walsh versus Tucker. And, of course, you get to see Danny versus Garcia. That is the Hollywood fight nights at the Aganus Arena. You can get tickets to Ticketmaster right now. Dan, thanks for coming in this morning coming in this morning appreciate it thanks for having me you clean up nice for a box i know i know i got

the press conference today after this so i wanted to look pretty yeah you don't look like you can

you're gonna tear somebody up you know you don't look like that just now so you know what most of the

elite boxers they're they're pretty humble on the outside and they don't look like

killers.

So I think, you know, I like to represent myself well the best I can.

Danny, when I watch those press conferences like the one you're going to go to today,

is there extra pressure on you to try to like say something that, like. Because, like, you see, I grew up watching the Rocky movies before I was even into boxing, and then it went to Tyson and watching that. That was, like, my introduction. And every single one of them, you know, the guys are yelling at each other. And it makes you want to watch the fight more. Is there like, does the promoter ever say, hey, man, get into this guy's face? Even though you were probably thinking mostly, I just want to fight this guy. No, I don't think so. And honestly, it could be a liability because if it turns into something more, you could end a fight before it even start, which is going to be bad for business. I think two things. I think, number one, sometimes it's real and people do have animosity and dislike each other, and that's when you can tell. But other times, it's not real, and you can tell. So, you know, for me, for me, I don't need to do any of that stuff. And, you know, and I don't like to. I like to act professional and where it's a business along with a sport. I like to represent myself and the best manner that I possibly can. Speak well, you know, and get my message across for the fight. And then let all the hard work I've done in the gym do my talking for me on fight night. Well, you said it best.

People are smarter than that.

They can sniff that stuff from a while away.

Oh, yeah, 100%.

You know if it's genuine or not.

You know what I mean?

And for me, I mean, I don't know.

I've been out of the game for five years.

And apparently the new thing is don't wear shirts
