BoxingScene spoke again to Matthews after the disappointing development of Mundine’s withdrawal, and he said: “I’m having mixed thoughts. I don’t want to accuse anybody of anything but I feel like they saw they had a real fight in front of them – I’m not saying he’s scared, but whether he was prepared or not for a real fight and didn’t wanna take that risk, it’s on them. It depends if we can get a fighter to fill in or not – if we can, I’m still fighting. If not, what a letdown. Since I heard about the fight, all we’ve been doing is training. I’ll take their word for it that it’s an injury and he recovers well and then maybe we can run it up when he’s ready.”
