Listen up, or run, for cover, from the people who have access to the people who need it, that the real Rob is dropping.

What it is, Bradley, back again with another episode of Drop and Bomb.

Today in the studio, folks got a real treat. As always, this time we've got Tony TNT Grano. Is it Grano? Yes, it's Grano. Grano. Tony TNT Grano, World Champion, NABF, Fifth in the World with WBC, Boxer, Fighter, Prize Fighter. How you doing, buddy?

Doing great. So he's now also an inventor. So I got to know him a little bit and I said, let's get you on Drop and Bomb and talk inventions, talk business.

Yeah, sure. So let's go back a little bit. Where were he as a youngster?

The youngster grew up in Newington, Connecticut. My parents are hardworking. My mom was a nurse and raising five kids. I'm one of five. I have three younger brothers and older sister. And my dad owned a video store and electronics store when we were growing up.

If you fought all your brothers, would you win them all? Yes. Do they know this? Yes. So they didn't get into boxing? No, they didn't get into boxing.

I didn't get into boxing until later on, way later. What made you get into boxing? I kind of fell into it, actually. So growing up as a kid, I had a learning disability dyslexia. So I got bullied and picked on quite a bit when I was younger. And until I was taught, I had to defend myself and not take shit from anyone stand up for myself.

So the bullying tended to stop, but I was always a new kid in a new school because I traveled a lot. I went to different schools to get the best education.

So I had to always prove myself. And then also I went to class with kids that were less fortunate than me. And I hate boys. So I didn't stand for it. So I got in fights even defending other people.

That's a noble though, isn't it? Yeah. And you know what? And when I, if there was an issue or something, you know, I give them the benefit of the doubt and let them know it was going to happen. And they didn't, you know, adhere to it. Then they've got their head kicked. And lots of times I wouldn't even get in trouble with the school because, you know, they knew I was standing defending myself.

Is it usually just a one pop and it's done? Or are you one of those that'll just pummel you into the ground over and over and over?

Back then it was pummeling into the ground. But now, you know, I've only been in two street fights since, since high school and since becoming a boxer. And they were one and done. And I wanted done.

If if someone was out there thinking, I want, I want to learn one skill to protect myself. If anything went down, what would you tell?

I should teach him how to make a fist of proper way and how to buy him his boxing. Yeah. Well, it's not necessarily boxing. If you're just going to crack somebody and hope that you'd not come out and so you can get out of there.

You know, there's enough to go with everybody. Yeah, you want to get out of the situation, right? Yeah. I mean, if I hit you, dude, I'm hoping to knock you out. But listen, if you don't, you got to keep him until they don't get up. Because guess what? People are dirty and it's a dangerous world.

Well, that's why I like to say I hit three ways. Yeah, fast hard and consecutively.

That's right. I never lost a fight because I haven't been in that many. And because any time I had to fight, I was so fucking damped up.

Yeah.

Dude, I couldn't feel or see anything. It was just blah.

But of course, I didn't run in any freaking pro pro boxers or something. Right. I've been lucky. But I try to avoid fights if I can.

I don't think so when you fight. So do I. I tried 99. Well, all of the fights I've ever had to get into.
