Then, he talked about how he was feeling a little under the weather leading up to the fight, but nothing that could have affected his performance. However, on the morning of the fight, things started taking a turn for the worst. He couldn’t eat anything, his energy was low, and he wasn’t feeling like himself.
After taking a nap, he felt rejuvenated and ready to go, but just before jumping on the Sprinter, something overcame his body, and he started feeling down again.
He didn’t tell anyone what was going on because he felt like he could get through it by himself. However, as they pulled up to the stadium and got stuck in traffic, he started feeling claustrophobic and felt like he was going to pass out.
Finally, his wife and his team yelled at the driver to let him out to get some fresh air, and he felt better after getting off the Sprinter.
McBroom also discussed his experience leading up to and during his last fight. He expressed frustration with the timing of the fight and how he was feeling physically.
He explained how his walkout was not as energetic as his previous fights, and he felt like he was crawling to the ring. His coach even questioned whether he was okay to fight.
The YouTuber expressed that he felt like he had no other option but to fight, or people would talk badly about him, making excuses for not fighting. During the fight, McBroom was hoping to end it quickly because he knew he didn’t have much left in him due to his illness.
He had managed to drop his opponent, but the opponent got back up, and the boxer knew he was in trouble. He also discussed his belief that everything happens for a reason and how losing that night was bigger than winning.
Austin McBroom is excited about his next fight
After the fight, McBroom tested positive for COVID-19, and he explained how he accepted the loss and just wanted to get back home to his family. His coach and family were also encouraging him to be done with the fight during that period.
Then, the boxer reflected on how competitive he is and how he would have kept fighting even if he was knocked down multiple times.

“A few last things I want to say is the last fight I did for you guys. There were so many people that were trying to convince me not to fight that night but I couldn’t let you guys down. I really did it for you guys but my next fight do it for myself and give hopefully I’ll see you again soon,” he added.
