Declan
I was being completely outplayed, and I didn’t have any fire in the belly. I was aware that I had lost my first three matches of the season and my last win came in the spring. I was just going down in 20 minutes and not even really fighting, and I said to myself that I needed to take this moment to make it right and to fight for my life.
I think it will be a big moment in the season because I got that monkey off the back, but it was so important for me for my confidence.
