    Round 5
    Okolie lands a big right and drops Cieslak who doesn't complain. Cieslak holding on now. Okolie just constantly looking to load up the right again and again
    10-8 Okolie
    48-46 Okolie

    I fear for the ref.

    These guys are so wayward that getting between them to split them up is risking serious injury.

    If Okolie lands clean on the chin, Cieslak will fold like a cheap deck chair. Okolie might be ugly and a bit dirty but, so far it's been damned effective.

    Okolie must be the only boxer that doesn't need a skipping rope and can just use his arms

    For as awkward and crap as Okolie seems, has anyone actually landed a clean shot on his chin? He's strangely effective in defence.

    sometimes I think that a good headbutt should be allowed ,man... that okolie huging and huging and huging is begging for a good one.

    I know I know.... yes. But, wtf...

    Anyway, Okolie's boxing is as effective as annoying. He knows very well how to use his physical advantage.

    How and why can somebody with such good power so utterly fail to cultivate a remotely watchable (let alone pleasantly aesthetic) fighting style? :shakehead:

    The fact that Okolie is a massive weight bully with SHW dimensions but still opts to hold like an octopus, spoil incessantly so there's never and honest exchange, and is so not just dirty but sneaky dirty given all his physical advantages just makes it so much more unappetising. He's 90% size, length, spoiler, sneaky, dirty, octopus and 10% talent. It's awful to watch

    Making the very most of his physical advantages.

    LO goes for the kill early, MC weathers storm. Trying to land counter left hooks. MC is doing a great job blocking and rolling with everything, Not much landed clean from either.

    There was a time not too long ago where cruiserweight was the most intriguing divisions in boxing. Now it's reduced to this.

    Round 5 - 10-8 Okolie
    Round 6 - Even

    Okolie 59-55

    Okolie can be his own worst enemy. He throws a punch, and ruins has chances for a follow up by closing the distance and hugging.
