"When we touched gloves, he was like, 'Let me take you to school.' I was like, 'You motherf***er, you're not taking me to school.' That's why when I knocked him down, I was dancing in front of him, 'You're a bad professor motherf***er. Who is taking who to school?' It looks like I was the one taking him to school."
