I've been coming up divisions, and I'm coming up one more division and coming into his backyard and fighting him in front of his home crowd.<\/p>\n "Without me there is no pay-per-view. Everyone knows I'm must-watch TV."<\/p>\n Goodman initially shrugged off the criticism\ufeff but was clearly irritated by the remarks from Schleibs, leading to some choice words for his opponent.<\/p>\n "Go on Boxrec and look at both our records," he said.<\/p>\n "He's struggled getting out of the domestic scene. I've been going against the best in the world for a year and passed with flying colours.<\/p>\n "I think he's the biggest clown in Australian boxing … he's delusional. I don't know where he gets his confidence from."<\/p>\n "He's an attention wh–e. As soon as there is a camera in front of his face he's got a lot to say, but he's got nothing to say when you put it on him."<\/p>\n Schleibs would bite back and claimed he would 'take Goodman on right now' leading to a tense staredown and a slap from the top-ranked star, before they were separated quickly by \ufeffRose on stage.<\/p>\n The pair will be part of a massive month for No Limit, with undefeated world champion Tim Tszyu<\/a> also in action in Las Vegas on March 30, while rising star Liam Wilson will compete against Oscar Valdez a day prior to that in Arizona.<\/p>\n The card for No Limit's pay-per-view in March at the Wollongong Entertainment Centre will also feature a clash between former NRL stars Curtis Scott and BJ Leilua<\/a>, as well as fan-favourite Isaac Hardman. \ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<\/p>\n
