“The weird thing about rap is that you don't get compared in the same way that athletes do, even though it's probably the most competitive sport in music.

“The sport has changed so much since 2004, it's incredible. If you look even at me, the way I'm fencing now compared to 2004, it's a completely different sport. They've changed so many things just with what [the referees] are calling, they've changed the timing of the [scoring] lights. You always have to be evolving as a fencer. The Olympics is interesting because it's such a small field compared to what we're used to. This world championships, I think we had a hundred and something [athletes]. The Olympics is going to be less than 32.” IfsThinkingWorldWayLooksDifferentLightUsedSportsInterestingFieldsThis WorldChangedCallingHundredIncrediblesAthleteEvolveTimingOlympicsChampionshipRefereeFencing Author:Mariel Zagunis
