No surprise here

Okolie is one of the most disliked fighters in British boxing.

On his video interviews, his dislikes far outweigh the likes haha. I don't know why. I seem to dislike him too and have no real reason for it.

I blame the Chamberlain fight. He wasn’t the only one to blame but it was dreadful to watch and was billed as a huge grudge match

He's a bit of a prat but you can't criticise his balls and ambition. His career is progressing really nicely and Askin is a very dangerous fight for him at this stage

I used to find him really corny especially in the lead up to the chamberlain fight. but since he’s fought chamberlain Watkins and now Askins he’s definitely earned my respect. He’s shown a real desire to be great unlike a lot of other British prospects like Anthony Yarde for example who’s more than happy to move at snails pace.

Nice one the sauce man.

Okolie looked much better against Watkins his last time out, interested to see who this is against. If it's Camacho or some other guy like that, it will be a blowout, but if it's Askin that's a hell of a tough fight. Askin is well above British level and would be a HUGE ask for Okolie at this stage

Okolie/Askin really needs to happen & Fa$t £ddie needs to push the BBBofC until it's forced!

Its been ordered, purse bids next Wednesday. Okolie has dropped the Commonwealth, as he wants Askin over Camacho.
