Let me re-phrase, how bad is he?
And more importantly, as I'm gonna bet on it, whats his chin like?
The odds on it ending within 3 rounds are pretty short (Just over 2/1), was wandering if it was worth a punt.
Cheers

I've read that he's a decent fighter and seems very focused and well-prepared for this opportunity.

This won't be a walk in the park for Enzo.

The bookies seem to think it will be!
I've never seen him, hell I've never even heard of him. I just assumed he was a hand picked opponent made to make Enzo look good, but you know the old phrase about assumptions being the mother of all f.uck ups hence why I was asking before I put my Gold cup winnings on an early KO

Ola is no joke. He hasn't been as active in recent years but he's a seriously skilled fighter. He underperformed in his last fight, content to just go through the motions, but he's got James Toney-like moves. His knockout of Eric Fields was impressive.

I gotta say i have never heard of him, but Enzo for my money is the best CW in the world right now and will win

Do not put your money on an early KO.

Olafabi rope a doped Eric Fields who has big time cruiserweight power. Fields threw everything at Olafabi and could not hurt him.

Olafabi's plan will be to get through the early round and knock out Enzo late, an early KO would be a real stunner to me.

Personally I think the best bet is to put your money on Olafabi pulling the upset, Enzo should not be a huge favorite over this guy.

can he ****?

I know his record doesn't really indicate that, but that's were the dough can be made, Alofabi ko.

I'll take a rain check on the early KO then, especially as it **** value for money.
Cant see Enzo losing though, I think he very underrated just cos Haye KOd him, which he does to everyone.

Afolabi is a very good opponent.

He trains under Freddie Roach, who doesn't train bums may I add.

The only loss he has is a UD to Allan Green.

He gave James Toney problems whilst sparring, and he has sparred loads of fighters all over the world.

If this is an early KO, I will be VERY shocked.

Adamek, Huck, Cunningham, Wlodarcyk and Jones are better imo.
