In a recent conversation, the Cameroonian discussed his current health state and said that, although he feels well, he believe he should get checked out to see if there is anything he can do to improve his health.

He said,
“We move, but regardless I feel okay. I was quite surprised that I remember everything from that fight night and coming back to the locker room. Basically I was conscious right after and since then everything has been good, although (I) still need to run some medical work just in case.
“I feel healthy but for the longevity of the sport… we better check and find out if there’s anything that could be done to get better now… I still need more checkups”.
