Alex Simon was recognised as the strongest man in Australian history & third strongest in the world. The former strongman now cage fighter is the physical personification of confidence & brute force but as Alex describes, it's not always how he felt.

He spoke of an insecure young boy trying to find his place in the world, how a group of young mates & outlaw behaviour led him to a stint in a maximum security prison, how he discovered his potential between the walls of that prison & how he turned his life towards the noble pursuit of self understanding & excellence.

An incredibly vulnerable conversation that proves there is far more than meets the eye to the man they call 'Godly Strong'. Alex was kind enough to give me his time in the lead up to his fight with former Australian heavyweight boxing champion & NRL legend John Hopoate & I wish him the very best in his preparations.
