Quotes[]

When spoken to:

I'm the heavyweight champion of Highmountain! You think you can take me on, kid? It'll be a punch out! Show me what you're worth... but when I knock you down DON'T GET UP!
Gossip I'm ready!

During fight:

Your experience doesn't match mine!

Using Lightning Jabs:

  • I'm gonna charge right over you!
  • You think you can match the strength of my fists?

Defeat:

Okay stop! STOP! Watch the jaw! You win! I've never seen such speed before. You're a good kid, mac. Keep it up. I'll be back for my belt some day.
