Lawrence Okolie should make his heavyweight debut against Deontay Wilder

I'm not sure buddy...
I certainly would be saying he has very limited skill, and that's not particularly controversial.

The Fury fights showed he's got heart when he's taking punches and being dominated - that he could dig in to keep his punchers chance alive.

Chinny? Depends - we know Fury isn't a huge puncher, he never has been, but Wilder took plenty of accumulation which shows some degree of durability...

Yes, but that's always easier when the level of opposition isn't great...
Leaving aside Ortiz (agree to disagree on that - you know I think you massively overrate him), there's very clearly levels upon levels between Parker and Fury and the rest of Wilders resume.

So how capable is he of landing when he's not fighting third rate no-hopers?

And levels, experience and ring sharpness...

Parker was always much more proven, been in with a lot more respectable opponents - and wasn't rusty.

It only makes sense for fans as it guarantees an unlikeable guy gets knocked out... But the same applies for a Whyte-Wilder fight - I'd prefer that TBH, if Deontay finally agrees to take it.

 

He shouldn't look past Różański.

 

I think the Ruiz from the AJ fight ruins any version of Ortiz... But that's clearly his career high performance.

The Ruiz that fought Parker probably beats any Ortiz too.


Easy to point to Ortiz being old against Ruiz, but Ruiz was in pretty horrible condition too.

 

Ortiz was never beyond gatekeeper level, "Bruh".

Ruiz might've been fat, but he was a handful at his best.
