They’ll make Okolie vs Riakporhe I reckon.

Okolie has said he’s a free agent so he’s exploring opportunities. I’d rather watch paint dry than see those two fight. Hopefully it doesn’t happen.

Okolie vs Riakphore for the WBC bridger weight title makes sense but also sounds dreadful lmao

[Tonyu]

Riakphore will be like Lerena not good enough to be heavyweight but a good cruiserweight

It makes sense on paper but that would be better suited for a Greco-Roman wrestling match with the occasional punch thrown in.

RR is in a tough position because I'm not sure he would benefit from the jump unless the weight cut is impacting him. Who knows, he's tall enough to add some more to his frame and he has power.

It doesn’t matter what weight class Riakporhe is in if he continues to show the lack of belief, urgency and will he displayed in the CBS fight. Riakporhe had been waiting years for a title shot - all that to put up an effort as lame as that in a big fight? Riakporhe really let himself down, especially when he talked so much big talk before the fight and was fighting a stadium fight in his home city.

He sure didn’t show anything his last fight let alone power
These guys are funny , they have a bad outing and if not blaming the trainer they convince themselves they are in the wrong division

I can watch paint dry all day and never pay a dime for a streaming service, or GOD FORBID, a PPV event.

Brilliant! The perfect move for a failed cruiserweight!
