    Yeah Conor Benn has a deal with Reebok and wears all their clothes. Pretty astonishing for a novice pro boxer but it's all down to his dad's name. And Reebok is a bit **** tier for a sports company, nowhere near Nike or Adidas level

    Knock out weighting to happen off this fight.

    Looks so unsteady on his feet, off balance all the time.

    I think he could be better if he adapted his style and utilised his long limbs, boxing from range.

    He's obsessed with scoring early KOs. I think he's desperate to ride the AJ wave as a destroyer but he doesn't look half as devastating in the ring. And he windmills his punches when he's going for the KO, it's Wilderesque. Watch his fight against the Polish guy, think it was his second fight. Got his nose smashed and was really badly rocked.

    Okolie fights like an idiot. Huge height, huge reach, and comes in swinging like a maniac. Where is the jab?

    Back to back breaks I saw Eubank Jr. and another that slips my mind now that had commercials, you'd never see that here. At least in Mid-Western America.

    He's not going to get his stoppage unless the ref helps him out.

    Okolie is prospect level , let him develop. I'd like to see him work behind a jab and use a gameplan other than just banging someone out.

    Okolie looked bad as soon as he got in with someone who he couldnt instantly blowout. He was trying far too hard to impress. Awkward opponent but should have boxed behind his jab.
