Briedis manhandles and brutally maims him. Briedis has more dimensions and wrinkles in his pinky toe than Glowacki has in all of his digits combined.
as much as i dislike him okolie wins briedis is getting older and okolie has 2 much height and range.
Briedis old or not old, Okolie brutalises him. There's simply an enormous gap in talent - and Briedis is excellent. That's the level of talent we're talking about with Okolie.
I don't think that this fight vs Briedis will happen. Briedis is too risky fight for Okolie and he doesn't brings a lot money in too. Eddie just needs wait a bit, relatively soon this IBF belt most likely will not be held by Briedis.
What I will say is that the awkward Lawrence Okolie is definitely getting better under the training of Shane McGuigan.
Is this a thing in the world section of this board? Just users throwing around ad-hominem remarks every time they disagree with someone? Is that why everyone sticks with the usual status quo Alvarez is the best thing ever on this side of the board? Surely, as a staff member, you want to encourage democratic participation. In other words, do you have anything decent to put out, or are you full of nonsense? I don't think we've seen anywhere near the best of Okolie. He's a generational talent, even better than Usyk, who I put well above Briedis. Okolie would knock someone like Michael Hunter clean out.
Looks that gas tank still is good and most likely he can clinch normally. At least vs Dorticos he was better exactly in last rounds. tank looked pretty good in 12 th round. The problem is that he doesn't throws with more than maybe 90% anymore. Since WBSS2 beginning.
Lenny called out the best in the division immediately after he won the title. . That deserves respect doesn't it? If that fight happens expect it to look like Tony Bellew vs Makabu but not as early MB in my mind is only sightly better than Makabu , if at all. .
Okolie by KO. Okolie is bigger, stronger, and punches harder than Breidis. Whatever type of fight Breidis wants, Okolie will do it better than him.
Briedis is one of my favourite fighter, he is p4p material, high skills in every department, he is much much better than E.coli in every department except size and youth, lol he is even better than E.coli in what he does best which is clinching. With that said Mairis is old and Hearns knows that. I would love to see first Arsen Goulamirian manhandling E.coli in first title defense, he doesn't have the right to unify yet, I don't know how some champions can get the right to unify titles just winning one fight, others can't get the opportunity after 20 fights and cleaning the division except a couple of cowards
The problem is that A. last boxer Makabu had fought was Durodola. Not Briedis. B. Briedis most likely doesn't care what is typed in forums, about clauses in eddie sauce and $ he definitely will care. Doesn't looks he needs WBO belt. Oh, of course, because he is Hearn fighter and from U.K. I had read up during 11 years how this Briedis will be beated up, destroyed, smashed, how bad he is etc.
