    Great point, the WBSS, what happened there? He said he only wanted to fight the best, only wanted big fights, unification fights..

    So He went off and fought a past it, injured Haye TWICE, fair enough he made good money and then had a swing at Usyk and got KTFO.

    Bellew would have been shown up on the WBSS and he knew it, Hearn knew it, so they conned British fight fans with two Haye fights.

    Lawrence Okolie is gona shock the world. People forget that he’s got McGuigan behind him now. He’s a massive puncher. He’s a problem for anyone in the division.

    He has no bigger supporter on these boards than me, but I can't excuse this behaviour :(

    Is he a massive puncher? He tends to smother his own work and fall into his shots. I haven't really seen any evidence of his massive power at this stage against anyone decent anyway.

    Yes he's a problem for anyone in the division because he gets away with so much in his own backyard with his ridiculous amount of wrestling that he shouldn't get away with. Hearn has done a good job getting him as far as he has but I don't think he'll get away with the amount he does away from the UK on a non Matchroom card.

    I hope McGuigan has improved him because I don't really fancy watching 12 rounds of him setting up rolling mauls Rugby Union style.

    So anybody know anything about the man Okolie will be cuddling this weekend?

    Only for the WBO International Title, Eddie wouldn't swing it, the WBO having none of it, maybe this is a good sign for Usyk.

    AJ also gets knocked out in sparring all the time too apparently yet is still the 2nd best HW in the world and would beat all those guys who have knocked him out in a legit fight.

    I'd expect Okolie to have power as he is massive for a CW. It would be nice if he could showcase it more.

    I was looking forward to seeing okolie get twatted off glowacki but it seems I'm gonna have to settle for watching him molest another Eastern euro bin cleaner into submission

    Cieslak put him away in 3 so if he lasts 3 vs Okolie he should get a bonus from Hearn.

    for holding and standup grappling he is top notch strong dude.

    You are so proud about your origin and boxers for you means only bin cleaners or champs.
    Nice boxing fanbase.

    From some point I agree that with so short notice to fight Octopuse in his backyard is end of career climb up.
    If about your attitude to eastern europeans, nice fight was Glowacki vs Cunningham:nonono. Youngsters like you most likely does not even know who Cunningham is. :D
