“I feel like I wasn’t even thinking, it was just my muscle memory coming all together, and obviously the knockout came,” Till said at the Misfits Boxing 22 post-fight press conference. “… I wanted to just test things and go for a lot to the body as well.

“i just don’t think i’m going to get a fight in the influencer scene, so i’ve got to go with these guys,” till said. “Carl [Froch] scurried out of there, like where did he go? is he here yet? come on. do you want to fight? do you want to do your youtube thing with 10k subscribers? … you sat here just yawning. ok, you did all this yawning, but get in the ring and face me like a man.”
