“You know that was in my past. And of course, with any situation, when someone talks about domestic violence with a fighter like myself, when they say Floyd was involved with domestic violence, restraining someone? Yes I did that. I’m guilty of restraining. As far as stomp, kick and beat a woman, the world would see photos.
