Well...we are in Iceland and we can't fight." Iceland ( Image:

I just saw it against Eddie Hall, so I'm going to do my best, train, and put on a show for the people first and foremost. No matter who I fight with my convictions I will never play a match Even if the chances are slim That's why we succeeded."
