When you lose control of your own mind,
I know it affects so many people in so many different ways
It's almost like carbon monoxide poisoning.
You can't smell it, you can't taste it, you can't feel it. But you die.
So many people take their lives on a daily basis with mental health problems,
and others look at them and say "he was a weak person" or "she was a weak person".
We're not weak, you just need help.
Why did that hit you, you were the champion of the world? You were the baddest man on the planet.
It wasn't after the fight. I've been suffering with my whole life.
Have you ever been left behind somewhere, when everyone else is going somewhere and you're left.
That's how I feel on a regular basis and I didn't know what it was.
When you fell into that depression, how dark was it?
It was terrible, I was thinking about suicide every day.
I put on 147 pounds, I was taking drugs on a daily basis, I was drinking on a daily basis, I was gone.
I was making everybody's life a misery,
everybody who was close to me was pushed away.
You've got a man who's got three kids at that time, who wants to die, on a daily basis.
It's not good place is it to be in.
Two and a half year later I've decided to make a comeback.
It was mission impossible to be honest with you at first. Everybody thought he was finished.
If mental health can bring somebody as big as me, as strong as me,
you know the stereotype heavyweight champion of the world, to my knees.
Than it can bring anybody to the knees.
I thought to myself, if I can show to the world that, you can comeback from it.
Get back in shape, get back to the top, than anybody can do it.
Fight is not a fight, until there is resistance - until there's something to overcome. Something to overcome.
I think that you don't know if a lawyer is a lawyer until there's something to overcome in the courtroom. Something goes wrong.
A doctor is not a doctor until he opens up this kid.
A kid. Just like he's got at home and arteries are bleeding all over the place and it's not in the textbook and he's gotta do it.
He gotta figure it out. Then he's doctor. Then he's a surgeon. At that level.
You're not in a fight, until there's pressure.
I don't even think he's going to get up. I think it's all over.
Maybe he was thinking about whether or not it was worth getting up.
This is my way of connecting the dots to you.
When you've gone through things in your life where you've though about not getting up.
There is still that to get up.
You are not in a solitary universe where only you have felt that way.
Prizefighters have felt that way.
And if you can understand that it doesn't make you weaker than other people, doesn't make you less than other people.
That you are in the same place as other people.
Even prizefighters have felt that way.
Even prizefighters who you look up to who do that for a living.
Who you though you could never behave like or dealted with the thing they dealt with.
That's the truth in life, that you are not the only one who feels that way.
Even these gliadiators feel that way.
All that matters is what he did. That all that matter.
I think it's over, is he going to get up.
Oh my Goodness, somehow Fury has managed to get up.
Thinking about not getting up, is not the end of it.
