    How did Buatusi look? Outside of Taylor I think he's the man in G.B.

    Shocking isn't it?

    A 7 year experienced world champion has more class than a 12 month novice.

    He’s not very likeable is he okolie... not the best fight either.

    Chamberlain looked anxious all build up in hindsight, harsh on him at the start but he just wasn’t in it today

    I will be watching the re-run of this one before I comment in depth, but I did think that Chamberlain would be too passive and within himself in the ring based on his body language in the press conference to win this one.

    What are you slavering at? Okolie boxed in Rio two years ago.

    Heard Gassiev Dorticos was a fantastic fight. Disappointed to have watched this. Underestimated Okolie's physical attributes tonight but still think he is poor technically. Finds himself on the inside far too often (where he is very sloppy) because his jab is non-existant. If he had a jab he would have stopped Chamberlain.

    Okolie will get knocked out before he reaches even European level I think, but Chamberlain wasn't the man to do it tonight.

    Did whatever he wanted to the other Lad. Looked clean and crisp.

    For me, Okolie's power has been overaccentuated up until now by his having fought nothing but non-punchers up until this point. If his power was legit and was all that the Sky / Matchroom hype machine claim it to be, he would've surely bombed Chamberlain out in four or five rounds.

    looked the business but had nothing in front of him

    he could basically do what he wanted tonight with a stationary target with no threat of anything coming back

    but he has skills. and looks precise and correct in what he does.

    I'm bringing up great examples of fighters who had a similar/worse twelve months in the sport compared to Okolie.

    Mayweather didn't put up any trees and Loma took a loss.

    Didn't throw anything in 12 rounds.

    The puncher outworked the boxer, says it all.
