    The hugs will go well with the happy meal. Do you think he puts sauce in his burgers?

    The lad will end up a millionaire and quite possibly a world champion so I don’t think he does.

    He isn't the great but could easily pick up a belt at cruiserweight, if he steps up hw he will get destroyed

    His post fight interview was completely devoid of any self-awareness of just how awful he is to watch. Said it in the RBR when he eventually gets his world title shot it won’t be the main event.

    Completely bizarre. You could see Eddie biting his tongue.

    I can't stand watching him, I can't help thinking that if he was a Ginger northerner who worked in a warehouse and then forged a boxing career for himself there wouldn't be half as much hype, people love buying into this fairytale that Matchroom have partly created. I'll admit his story isn't a bad one but as far as his ability goes, he's a brutal highlight reel KO waiting to happen.

    He'll likely never be a superstar but world title fights on undercards of ppv's Isn't something i'd turn down to go back to flipping burgers to be fair!

    Every time I watch him I doze off, he's very unlikeable in and out the ring.

    I stopped watching Okolie after the Askin fight. He should have been disqualified from that fight for constant holding

    I stopped watching Hughie Fury after the Parker fight. The constant running and unwillingness to engage should have resulted in points deductions from the referee that night.

    no lol I highly doubt he becomes a millionaire. He's not good enough, and he doesn't have the chin to beat the best cruiserweights in the world. Plus if you aren't elite you need to be exciting to watch, I don't think Lee Selby, Terry Flanagan, and Hughie Fury will have earned much!
