Fifty-two-year-old Simple Simon left face down on canvas by Ed Matthews in brutal KO

Ed Matthews needed just 48 seconds to knock out 52-year-old Simple Simon and settle their bitter grudge.

Matthews and Simple Simon have been rivals for several years and finally got the opportunity to settle their scores after being separated several times during the fight week build-up. The pair shared a significant age gap with the younger star Matthews looking to bigger things after his "warm-up" bout.
