When asked about the Tiktok Boxing Event, Simple Simon said, “I’m confident. I wouldn’t get in the ring if I didn’t think I was going to win. But I’m not going to be like [Matthews]. He’s a cocky little s**t, isn’t he? Let him do all the talking. I’m realistic. I know what the situation is. I’ve got to train hard and be at my best ability and my best fitness to beat him.” He added, saying, “I’m not stupid, you know? He’s in really good shape, he is; that’s the only compliment I’m going to give him. But he is in good shape, and I know I’ve got to give my all and put myself through the paces to win that fight.”
