    My immediate thought was he's a bit jollied up. I was at an amateur boxing show a few weeks ago and Steve Collins was there downing the Guinness like he'd just walked in from the desert. Nice to see them enjoying their retirement.

    Okolie is not a attractive boxer but he can cause a lot of problems for many heavyweights.

    Heard rumors that Okolie's first heavyweight opponent could be Joseph Parker.

    Yep, Groves has deffo had a skin full. All it would take now is a couple of Jaeger Bombs in quick succession and he'd be more fooked than he was when he got Cobra'd

    Gomez Jr. vs Giles could be fun. The question is how many rounds will we get ?

    I like him too Jim, but am not sure how his chin would hold up at heavyweight. We’ll have to see. Would enjoy him battering that plodder Whyte all over the ring.

    Round 1: Gomez Jr 10-9

    Gomez Jr the taller man marching forward and landing his jab at will. I was surprised Giles was the slight favourite with the bookmakers.

    I like Gomez's old school style.

    He has just returned from Mauritius, so he’s probably gagging for a real pint of the black stuff lol
