“I thought I was done. He stepped up gently and let me throw a few punches. Then I said to him I wanted to experience what it’s like to get hit,” Grant told the Daily Telegraph.
“He gets to six or seven and I find I can’t speak. He took my breath away. I couldn’t call for help, I couldn’t say my safe word. I had no air in my lungs.’
Grant continued: “My face started to turn a weird color. I went to vomit my toasted sandwich. He came out of his psychosis and withdrew.’
