Okolie has those Hearns like dimensions. Will be interesting to see what Sugar Hill can bring out of him. Interesting move.

Isn’t that the broken guy who sings broken glass every where? Or is that whoudinni ?

Not sure about Okolie but if he can achieve then Jevan is the right man to bring it out.

Honestly seems like it could be a good fit for him he will get much better sparring in the US as well.

Okolie has the dimensions and some athleticism. Sugar Hill may turn this man into a beast. He is 30, though.

He's still a young guy.

Good to hire Steward, especially if he wants to compete at heavyweight, where he'll need more power to his punches.

One doesn't have to be a big one punch ko artist in the heavyweight division. As long as you have some decent power and can hurt opponents with an accumulation of punches. For eg. Tyson Fury, Usyk and legends like Holyfield and Ali.
