bout with Mike Tyson
Here are some snippets (non-sequential) of the interview
transcript:
Zach: "If I told you a year ago you'd
be main-eventing a pay-per-view against Mike Tyson, what would you have thought?"
Jones: "…You gotta be kidding me. You're out of
your mind. You lost it!"
Zach: "How was the camp preparing for
this fight?"
Jones: "…Mike and I are two one-of-a-kind
specimens…very hard to find people who can mimic what either of us
do."
Zach: "When the fight got delayed a few
months, what was you're reaction?"
Jones: "It kinda pissed me off because... I had the
advantage…everybody knows, all Mike's got to hit you one good time
and it could be 'church over,'…but with just six weeks to prepare,
ain't no way he gonna be in enough shape to catch me. Now…it's more
like a real fight…you're giving this killer a chance to get ready
for me. Now, it makes it more even…now I have to deal with the
'real' Mike Tyson."
Zach: "What are you worried about?"
Jones: "Not a damn thing."
His complete interview with Jones, as well as with the Paul
brothers (Jake is an undercard to Tyson-Jones) and the legendary
Evander Holyfield, are posted to his
Instagram page, @ipickwins, which boasts more than 350,000
followers as of today. There are more interviews coming, maybe even
one with Tyson himself.
"I've been following boxing since I was a toddler," said Zach,
whose father, Scott Hirsch is a
boxing manager for champions Shannon
Briggs and Cory Spinks.
"Growing up around greats like Briggs and Spinks has been a
life-changing experience. Now, having the opportunity to interview
them for my followers is a dream-come-true."
Zach is just getting started. He recently signed contracts to be
a ringside reporter and analyst with the IMPACT Network's
Championship Boxing series and the Bare Knuckle Fighting
Championship (BKFC) Championship Boxing Series, both gigs debuting
in November.
Hirsch, 18, has been picking sports winners since the age of 10
and is recognized as the world's best teenage sports handicapper
and analyst.
