    You gotta keep in mind Light doesn't even deserve this opportunity, he was completely outworked by Glanton and badly hurt twice in that fight.
    I think stylistically Glanton would give Okolie a lot of trouble with his physical style and workrate

    Ben Shalom must be having buyer's remorse.

    He should've deducted points in round one. Never seen anyone stiff-arm so often and so flagrantly in my life

    These mother****ing commentators should be forced to explain how Okolie is winning these rounds walking away. What the **** is he doing that's wowing them so goddamn much? Maybe they have The Sauce in their eyes.

    4-2 Okolie.

    Turgid to watch. It's a shame when a fighter 'games' his way to wins, as I'm sure with an opponent the same size he'd have to change it up.

    Sky Sports have it 6-0 to Okolie. I actually don't think that's unreasonable but it should also be said that 1 and 6 could have been scored to Light who could be ahead on a valid card also. Interesting to see Okolie glance with a body shot, he should have that dialled in by now and now some intense grappling. I would actually bin this fight if I didn't think it was so close and wasn't curious about how it will come out. ****ing hell, the referee lectures both, like Light is up to something. That's awful. Awful.

    But I thought Light won that round. ANd for the first time I think he won a round by landing the better shots. Fiar play the boy. He is getting ragged but maybe it won't matter?

    Okolie:1,2,5,6,
    Light:3,4,7,

    This fight sucks.
    One can't and the other is too scared.

    Fair play if you do carry on, I've switched to BT to watch some fat Argentinian fight some novice with 1 fight.

    Round 1 Light 10-9
    Round 2 Okolie 10-9
    Round 3 Light 10-9
    Round 4 Light 10-9
    Round 5 Okolie 10-9
    Round 6 Light 10-9
    Round 7 Light 10-9

    Light doing well, catching most of the rights on his gloves, following him back in, and landing cuffing hooks. Again, Light jabbing quite well.
