I’m clever, I’m tough, I’m awkward. “I think, with Filip, I’m not gonna try and knock him out. I want to irritate him. I’m gonna make him miss, I’m gonna push him back. “He’s gonna turn up on May 16 and think he’s in for an easy night, and when we get two, three, four, five rounds in, he’s gonna think, ‘Wow, I can’t really hit this fella.’“A lot of people in boxing – the [Oleksandr] Usyks, the [Tyson] Furys, [Anthony] Joshua – go and ask them about me. “They’ll tell you, ‘He’s a very good fighter on his day.’ And if I have my best day and Filip turns up anything short of 100 per cent, I’m gonna beat him.”
