    Wasn't that who Bellew was rumoured to be fighting?

    Well McKenzie has just tweeted that he is officially now challenging him October the 2nd. I doubt Bellew would go to Argentina to fight for the title against a small name. He thinks in his deluded mind he's above that.

    Go Ovil!! :bbb

    Really hope he does it, had enough of prospects being giving easy routes and gimmes!

    He has had to literally battle his way up.

    Does anyone know if Ovill McKenzie has been in training for a fight? 11 days notice isn't a long time to prepare for a world title challenge.

    Hope he does not watch Round two of this.

    For those who have not seen or heard of Coggi/GonzalesI, watch from 11:00, and witness proper corrupt refereeing! For reference Coggi won in the seventh.
