His father said he was fighting the dogs because he believed, "he has to prove, "he's a phenomenal athlete"
"He doesn't understand, you know, his problem is not the president, you know, his problem is in his head. And he don't want help, but we can't get him help, but we think he needs to be forced to get the help"
