"He came out all guns blazing, first second round, he blew himself out, really."I listened to John because that's what I used to do, blow myself out. I've been trying to calm down really."West says he is likely to be out again, in the next fortnight or so.
"Everything's just buzzing really" the 24-year-old said.
