    I knew you Wernt comparing them but I’m saying that there is levels to boxing, if I watch some guy make his debut who gets bombed out in a round am I not able to judge him because loma lost his second fight?

    Probably one of the very few times Okolie will be mentioned in the same sentence as Floyd and Loma. :lol:

    I know a few are saying it's what to expect as they are both novices, that's fair enough, but this kind of fight does not deserve to be top bill, it belongs way down the undercard. If Eddie wanted a 'Groves vs Degale' type event he should have waited a year.

    No sheeit Sherlock. Do you have any more amazing insights? Usyk has had 6 more fights than Okolie, is he an 18 month novice?

    He didn't want a Groves vs Degale type fight though.

    He's got too many guys looking to make PPV already.

    Considering Usyk has been a pro for over 4 years, no, he isn't an 18 month novice.

    Jesus Christ I’m not saying a guy can’t lose his first fight and not be class, I’m saying if you watch a fighter who has no skills nothing that shows class then you can judge them. Lawrence has nothing of note that will get him above European level I’m allowed to judge a boxer who I’ve seen everyone of there pro fights including two live and say this guy will not make it to top level.

    Yet you seem to think just because Loma lost at some point and Bernard lost early in his career that no fighter ever can be written off well you sir are wrong if there isn’t any discernible talent then yes people can make predictions on a persons career.

    Glad I switched over to Okolie at the last minute.:D No matter what Chambo did, he wasn't getting the decision tonight.

    You can have whatever opinion you like.....

    I'm just stating that if, after 12 months, we assumed a fighter would not improve anymore, this sport wouldn't have had any stars.

    By all means write him off, but if we all shared that logic, Loma/Hopkins would've been no hopers.

    Nah, I'm far prettier.:D

    She's a groady old hag named Camille Paglia, and she's also a genius, one of the most brilliant political commentators/philosophers there is and ironically the Left Wing mother of the normal non racist wing of the Alt Right.

    No, not yet, but based on Kapparino's scorecard, along with the deduction from Isaac, there seems to be a chance he would have gotten the shaft regardless.
