    These scorecards over here, Jesus Christ.

    Absolutely horrific fight, Okolie is terrible but Light was just a punching bag with lots of heart, zero power. Okolie won maybe 9-11 rounds.

    Cruiserweight division looks dead though, if this is the best it has to offer...

    I can't even score Octopolie fights because his style is so ugly and infuriating. Talentless massive weight bully cheating coward spoiler bum whose success hinges on nothing but his size and incessant cheating and corrupt refs allowing him to cheat like crazy from first bell to last. Most disgusting fighter and style I've ever laid eyes on. He literally has zero honour and he should be sent to the chair for his grotesquely disgraceful and ugly style.

    Okolie: Ring rust....he was extremely tough, moving around to his right, and when he got inside he really went to work...it's tough, not making excuses, i'll just get better...very tough, I always believed 7-9 are my rounds to get people out...I couldn't get the last shot to drop him, he was very good with his hand defences...for me I will go in the ring and fight anyone, if they watch me and think i'm rubbish come and find out...

    Well, thankfully we have Benavidez-Plant to look forward to. Surely it will be a better fight...

    This. Light was pretty much a sparring partner.

    That magnetic personality shining through in the interview just like in the ring. I wish I was a renaissance man like Lawrence, but since I'm not I'll just bask in his glow

    He didn't impress me at all but he landed more often and more cleanly than Light. To be honest, I was in a coma for half of the fight so my view of the fight may all be a dream.

    :lol: Johnny Nelson having flashbacks to his prime.

    He's called it though. Okolie has to get better or "he will get turned over."

    Usually a British show to start my Sunday puts me in a good mood but now I'm going to walk around all day like I have a rock in my shoe and a cut inside my mouth. That's the kind of effect Okolie has on you.

    What is everyone doing tonight? Jose Zepeda vs Neeraj Goyat must be coming up soon and Zepeda is crazy good value. Then you have Jose Carlos Ramirez later...i think i might just stick to the Plant card which is a really good card in fact but these are two interesting fights for all Ramirez should be a big favourite.
