    Depends on who he fights - but he's certainly beatable.

    Fingers crossed we don't have to suffer a rematch of that!

    112-112, gun to head and shoot.

    Let’s give CBS some credit, he’s put up with some real shizzy outhouse tactics from Okolie, he’s fought the majority of the fight with a horrible cut and hasn’t let it effect his performance, he’s stuck to his game plan and boxed behind a tight defence.
    At the end it was great to see just how much it meant to him

    Let's be real here, CBS looked terrible as well, just has a solid chin.

    Okolie was just even worse and has no chin.

    It was his old trainer; Shane McGuigan.

    Okolie left him and Shane was upset by it. The BOXXER hype got to Okolie's head.

    Boxing is so corrupt, it's beyond repair ....
    Okolie should have been DQ like 100 him time before the 11 round. He just goes in there and clinch and hold for dear life, and even the referee(paid M******), can't separate him ....
    Next thing is the judging ..... If the other guy wasn't British too, 100% robbery would have happen, and still 1 of the judges had it 112-112, on what world exactly ?
    Constantly robberies, and constantly b.c. scorecards. Referee helping and bending the rules for the Champs or so call "A" side or for the promoter, bigger side. Absolutely disgrace.
    Boxing is just not worth it anymore ....
    Also having the corrupt Governing Bodies, and pathetic quack quack HW ....
    So soon i will be so done with this sport, as it's simply killing it itself.
    Never been into MMA, but at least i can see who actually the better fighter is, and the rules are always applied, unlike in Boxing.

    Beterbiev would chin him. It would be a wipeout within 5 rounds.

    Should have never left Barry. For a few fights he looked decent under Barry. Now he's gone back to his old ways and boxing/hugging with zero Ring IQ.

    But if the refs was fair, he would have DQ him, like 100 times already.
    This s**** should not be allowed. Especially when it's clearly intentional.
    The moment you see a fighter use it as tactics, point deduct, point deduct, point deduct, and then DQ.

    You should warn exactly 2 times, then start deducting points.
    Boxing is absolutely garbage with this b.c.
    Fury is the same ugly cheater.

    He should've been DQ'd long before the finish

    CBS won't hold that belt for long....anyone with talent that doesn't HUG to win will beat him.

    With that being said, I think CBS is one of the nicest people in Boxing, tonight is his night.

    Wouldn't mind seeing CBS vs Goulamirian. It's a winnable unification and has the making of a grueling scrap.
