'Superior person' Chris Billam-Smith can shock Lawrence Okolie because the WBO world champion has 'self-preservation stamped on his forehead'.

18 kg is a ridiculous amount of dehydration. Even after all that, I would think it’s a wide points decision in a horrible fight or a KO for Okolie

McGuigan Explains Why Okolie is better in every area, but say his guy is a good person, which don't aquate to being a good fighter but there you have it!

McGuigan's a rodent disguised as a human. Did he ever fight anyway? Big talk from the guy not taking any punches.

Yeah, bit strange that - not outright defeatist but verging on it. I know Okolie is a better fighter than my guy but if my guy somehow doesn't get damaged in the early stages then maybe he can survive and eke out a decision" CBS > "Jeez Shane, are you sure? Can I load up on ibuprofen before the fight?"

McGuigan insulting a fighter who was in his stable. Not sure if sour grapes, nasty or something fair.

But yeah, Okolie is the opposite of exciting to watch. I guess if he keeps winning, he might get a good money fight, but not at cruiserweight.

Heavyweight is where it's at, unless Jake Paul wants to fight him I guess. That's some payday there.

Strange comments from Shane, the first parts taking jabs at Lawrence and then not sounding too bullish about his charge's prospects in the fight.

I wouldn't be confident either if I was him. I expect Okolie to get the job done on Saturday unremarkably but without too much strain.
