What weight do you think Lawrence Okolie will fight at when he moves up to heavyweight? I can't help but feel he'll weigh in around the 225 - 230lb mark initially (similar weight to Fabio Wardley), depending on whether or not he decides to fill out his frame as he is still pretty slender. What do you guys think?
It depends how much he's weighing in the ring at cruiserweight. Unless he's considerably boiling down to the 90kg limit, then I doubt he will weigh that much more than that. I reckon he would come in somewhere around 96kg. He's not a natural 225-230 guy.
If I was him for a laugh I would win the Bridger weight belt first and go up to heavy a two weight world champion. Much bigger purses in it that way. Out of interest for if he do a weigh around 220lbs does that mean WBC won’t sanction him for a heavyweight belt?
