In an interview, questioned on the Durrrr challenge it is clear: "there is no doubt, I'm always interested to finish it". He added: "we have discussed a few months ago. May be can do us something during the Party first League V. We played together at the Aussie Millions, but not in head's up. I am interested for ancillary activities with him."
Further, asked about his fight against Feldman, he says that he is trained for this upcoming fight. Remember for those who have not heard of this story, that the fight could take place during the upcoming WSOP. Although he has not yet discussed all the details with Feldman, the fight could probably be of MMA instead of boxing. The stakes of this fight would be $ 100,000 in the words of Cates (although nothing is certain). Regarding the idea that Tony G. might be the referee, it's an interesting and comical idea according to Cates. Tony G. had also added that (possibly), the winner of this fight will be automatically qualified for the final of the Premier League Party (value of 125K).
