General
TURNING PROFESSIONAL
He and his twin brother Pat plan to turn professional after the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. "I wouldn't be doing all this [training for the Games] if I wasn't going to turn pro. You're getting these medals in just to get a better CV for when you turn pro. The money, the price would go up for when we turn pro [if both he and his brother win gold at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo]. That's all we are looking for really. That's all you're looking for with these Olympic medals is just a platform to turn pro, to get more money. Obviously you want to win an Olympic medal but you want that money don't you really. He [Pat] could have gone pro after the Rio Olympics, but it's just a bigger deal if both of us turn pro together." (SecondsOut YouTube channel, 20 Aug 2019)
