How far can Okolie go?

Did Iqbal **** in your cornflakes or something; why are you resurrecting ancient threads?

 

He has weighed in at almost 18 stone 9lbs for his fight tomorrow. Guess he’s been back at McDonald’s. Insane weight gain. He looks porky as hell.

 

He said he’d be at 17 and a half but maybe he means that’ll be his ideal weight going forward

 

Give him Joyce, Kaybael, Fury for 2025.

 

He would be better suited to WWE for me.
Too much grabbing and holding- watching the Billam Smith fight was like pulling teeth

 

He’s garbage.

 

He's a bit of a dik. Walks around like he's some kind of big timer. He should humble himself. You'd think criticism of his shyt boxing style would have made him a bit humble but no, the lanky, gangly cuunt still think's he's some kind of elite boxer.

Prats like Okolie never look at themselves. He's changed trainers, promotors, location and looks like he changes his accountant, just as often

 

**** knows how he'll handle HW.

Clearly, he hits hard, and I'd like to think that his chin will be a bit better at HW now he isn't boiling down to CW. This, however, could be negated by facing bigger punchers.

He looks pudgy at the weight. He could easily lose a stone and still be effective. It would probably help his gas tank, too.

I just hope he stops being a boring twat and hugging every five seconds.

 

He does seem to be a bit full of himself. The funniest thing for me is him using the Dr title, even on Instagram, despite only being awarded an honorary doctorate. It isn't customary for those who have received an honorary doctorate to use the Dr title. Most people who have an actual doctorate wouldn't use the title outside of a professional context.

 

It is absolutely cringe for anyone to use the letters they got from a degree or a masters in their name. Even more cringe if you didn’t actually earn it.


He needs a far better diet next time, that has to be one of the dirtiest bulks ever seen. The opponent was as basic as they come, just walking into the right hand all night, and not a test at all.

 

I think it's acceptable in a professional context, but outside of it is unnecessary unless the person is looking to show off. Danny Flexen of Seconds Out kept referring to him as Dr Okolie during an interview. Danny is an educated person and should know that referring to Okolie as Dr Okolie is odd, but he was obviously brown-nosing him.

The opponent was very poor. Okolie appeared to be trying not to hold, even though the opponent seemed keen on it (ironic after his talk about not wanting to hold). He did a good job but beating that guy tells nothing. Let's see who he's in with next.

 

Fair, thorough and well-stated.

 

People talking English and British champion are gravely mistaken. Winning the WBC bridgerweight was a shrude move, he was straight in at number 5 WBC heavyweight and now he has the silver edition. He will be targeting the winner of Zhang v Kabayel or Bakole v Ajagba.

 

Thought he looked fat last night but his hands looked heavy as always. I was far more impressed with how Adelayde looked now his with Adam Booth

 

Bakole vs Ajagba is through the IBF. I am not sure why Bakole will choose to face Okolie when he will be mandatory for Dubois once he pulverises Parker.
