  • Probably going to have to wait quite awhile for a shot at Makabu, but maybe Okolie would be interested.

    • Everyone in the elite level in that weight division will be gunning for Canelo, not sure how Canelo would beat Okolie though

  • Dorodula didn`t seem like he came to win, he was passive the whole fight. He is 42 years old, so one can`t read too much into this result.

  • Okolie will smoke that Brixton guy. Billum Smith gave this guy a hard fight, and Smith is just Okolie`s sparring partner.
