Sims won over four roundsCredit: GettyDad Tony is an esteemed trainer to the likes of Conor Benn and formerly Anthony Joshua.
And it appears his coaching has rubbed off on youngest daughter Demi after she cruised to victory over influencer Hopkins.
Sims showed off an impressive lead left jab despite her inexperience from the opening bell.
It set up a combination of right hands that caused the referee to give Hopkins a standing count in the first round.
Sims – cornered on fight night by ex-middleweight world champion Darren Barker – kept up the pressure in the second.
An eye-catching left hook landed throughout as she bossed the action on the back foot.
Hopkins – who was absent throughout fight week and only showed up on the night of the bout – proved to be a game contestant.
But Sims continued to control the fight with her jab, landing the odd right hand to threaten a stoppage.
MISFITS boxing is back for an absolutely massive card this weekend.
Hopkins made it through to the four rounds and all three judges awarded Sims the unanimous verdict.
She celebrated in the ring afterwards with dad Tony – who was restricted from cornering due to his British Boxing Board of Control license.
It was Sims’ debut in Misfits Boxing – the home of celebrity-style crossover bouts co-founded by YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI.
And her cousin Joey Essex was also in action later in the night making his debut against Portuguese influencer Numeiro.
