Back to New Jersey where he is from. Only found out this year and he and his father are estranged.

Didn't state years ago that he didn't want to do events outside the US? That was back when he lived in LA. It doesn't seem surprising that he's fine doing anywhere in the US now that he lives in Texas.

In his contract. And just real cards.

Degenerate gambler, probably pays hookers to wear an Ariana mask and shit on him while he cries and chants "I'm a dirty little boy"

Definitely contributed... him blathering on about odds, while simultaneously knowing absolutely nothing about either fighter besides their record made it feel gross. Like watching some idiot you sold your hot rod to drive away.

That's when it finally felt like "this isn't ours anymore".
