    That chubby checker Scottish “heavyweight” who looks like Stacey Slater’s transgender brother on Eastenders?

    JUST LMFAO

    My moneys on this guy Imre Szello, 22-0 Hungarian http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/688678 ranked 14 with the WBA. Okolie recently stating his desire to fight Lebedev leads me to think the race is on to get a high rank with the WBA, in time for when Usyk drops the belts, Lebedev is due a shot at the WBA Super.

    Okolie shouldn't be allowed to fight anyone with a chance of winning after his disgraceful performances last year. Stick him in with average domestic opposition non televised until he's willing to box instead of impersonating Maro Itoje with his rolling maul tactics he loves to use.

    So I’ve never heard of this guy.And I checked him out.

    He lost twice to David Howe in 2017,is 7-3 and recently won a Scottish area title v a novice.

    Hmmm.....I wonder.....

    Okolie is hard to watch. I like his story, I suppose it's an inspiration to fat kids, but he's not someone I get excited about seeing, so I don't really care who he is fighting as it won't be entertaining.
