Speaking on The MMA Hour he said: “I believe we don’t have to be concerned about it. We’re talking about a two-time world champion.”
“The guy didn’t have 20 fights in two years, he knows how to fight. He’s fought against the best guys in the world.
“When he steps inside the ring, he knows what to do. It’s not something new for Mike, and this fight is no different.
He concluded: “He works hard every single day to go in there and try to knock Jake out from the beginning to the end. He’s going to prove that in July.”
