He’s been training consistently over the past eight days since choosing to take on the fight, highlighting how “the opportunity came across my table and I had about, I think Keem (Keemstar) gave me about 30 minutes to decide and before I could think of any excuses I just said yes,” proving just how short notice the event was for him.
Nevertheless, following intense training, and plenty of preparation, it’s clear James couldn’t be more ready to take on this challenge, commenting how he “can’t express how insane this has all been” in a recent Tweet.
