Okolie knocked Joshua out in sparring.

Askin didn't do much to prevent any of the holding. He just seemed apathetically to accept it all.

I believe it. He can punch.

Yeah, Askin let Okolie fight his fight and he did nothing about it.

Aren't you disqualified if they deduct you a point three times?

That was wrestling, Ward would be proud.

people acting like clinching is something new. go watch Ali/Frazier 2 if u wanna see a clinch fest. its a slimy tactic used to tire your opponent out. Ali also applied the headlock for good measure. if the ref not gonna DQ anybody why stop.

They need to take Okolie back to the drawing board, or stop putting him on these big cards. The mans bloody awkward and should be most CW's biggest nightmare to fight, but it's the ugliest style I've ever seen in a winning boxer.

A garbage British fighter. Truly truly awful fight if that is what fans want to call it. Okolie obviously has no chin. He is a walking knockout. If he can’t defeat this guy without clinching as if he punches like George foreman what happens when he fights fighters that won’t let him be clinched?

Disgusting fight
