Plus I have such a great team behind me, all the guys at London Shoot and Pete Mercer who all believe in me like I believe in myself. S - What went through your head when Tony Giles called you out? Alex - I was a little surprised actually, I cannot say that I would have taken the fight had it not have been for the fact it is for charity, but now I am ready and really looking forward to it.

S - A quick word to your fans & the people attending for UCMMA 38? Alex - Thank you all for paying your hard earned money to come and see me fight, I know that times are hard and it all costs money. I also just want to ask that everyone gets behind the charity on the night, whatever they can afford because even 20p makes a difference. S - Thank you Alex, good luck. Alex - You're welcome.
