    Okolie is a relative novice, which you seem to be forgetting. He turned pro 4 years ago and only started boxing when he was 20 years old. What more could have been asked of him up to this stage? British, Commonwealth, European and now WBO belt.

    I'm saying it how I see it because that's what brings about interesting discussion, unlike 90% of the world forum who lick the backside of anybody who is already established and stick by the status quo. Anybody can litter the forum with "Alvarez is the pound for pound best" bull****, which I simply don't believe.

    You're definitely reaching when you cite Ruiz as killing Okolie. Ruiz would be absolutely battered and I think he's competitive with anybody in the division. He's a sensational talent who has ridiculous power. Okolie is also very strong and I would not be surprised if he retains that strength at heavyweight, he's a naturally strong man.

    I think you're having a serious mismatch in your head. Andy Ruiz couldn't even knock out the ghost of Liakhovich, Zumbano Love, Lawrence, the ghost of Johnson etc.

    Wishful thinking.

    :lol:

    In all seriousness Glowacki hasn't boxed in nearly 2 years since Breidis smashed him.. he is 13 years into his career now… He is pretty much done. Okolie isn't remotely special.

    Wow, just WOW, not only the best Cruiserweight of all time but now P4P king?

    Beating a 34 year old, who was coming off a stoppage loss, who hadn't fought in over 18 months, overcame Covid can do incredible things for your career.

    :facepalm:
