"It's Interesting To See How Big He Was!" Simon Jordan & Lawrence Okolie DEBATE His Heavyweight Move

[@Jamesbe3ker]

Simon Jordan went to 2 shows and made best mates with Ben now he’s the messiah of boxing 🤣🤣

[@Hologhoul]

Lawrence deserves respect. He's moved up, says he thinks he can be more entertaining, he's intelligent and speaks well, a good guy.

[@thunderroad1199]

That' a lot of Big Macs. "Did you know Lawrence used to work at McDonald's and has a crew from Hackney called the Penny Boys?" - Adam Smith, voice of boxing

[@Idk_1838]

Never forget his Bomber Bellew comment 😂

[@dontbewoke]

Never in my 47 years have I seen a man speak with such certainty on a subject he has such limited knowledge on. His analysis of the first Usyk Fury fight was "a good big 'un beats a good littl' un" I mean come on , smh....

[@Jay-vd1hp]

@@dontbewoke he’s absolutely clueless. Just shows how far you can get if you back the courage of your conviction

[@dontbewoke]

@@Jay-vd1hp He likes to think he's the intellectual capital but he actually talks nonthenth

[@OrsJohn]

His credentials are "travelling the globe watching Lennox Lewis"

[@RoadsideGee]

So true. He’s never offered one bit of tactical analysis. Just wants to talk about the politics in boxing. Delusional.

[@fitasatrout8273]

He told on himself at one point. He said ‘you throw one, then smoth… ‘ Throw one and smother. Sums him up perfectly.

[@Jay-vd1hp]

“You’re 31, time’s getting on”. Jim, wind your neck in he has 4/5 yrs.

[@chrislonge3343]

4 to 5 years goes very quickly especially in boxing where fighters fight once a year

There ain't many fighters out there getting better after 30

[@msquared6695]

Just coz he’s very tall doesn’t mean heavy weight is more natural.He looks unnaturally big to me at heavy weight.

[@markhatch9893]

True. Frame matters a lot too. Tyson was only 5'10 but he had the right frame for heavyweight, Frazier also. Okolie looked pregnant.

[@ianmitchell9102]

Interesting him saying Moses was the best his sparred with

[@Ragg32]

Thing is he’s not the only person I’ve seen say this…Shane mcguigan said the same thing when he was training DDD😂.

[@dojo1371]

4:17 Whats up with the bald guy twitching all over the place? 😂 He was making Lawrence feeling uncomfortable 😂😂😂😂

[@SuperChalkster]

I know this is a boxing channel and were all boxing fans, but in the world of sport the bald guy is a arsenal footballing legend, and would be by far more known around the world then lawrence lol. but he did seem to be a little distracted here and on his phone.

[@SuperMillwall]

Bald?

[@Jamie-uj4br]

I don’t see any bald guy ?? Where ???

[@Govanmauler]

[@roblaidlaw6508]

An interesting addition to the HW division. Big fights ahead with Clarke,Wardley, Whyte, Joyce etc before world level....

[@ShahanAhmed-h5l]

The plan is straight to world level now that the introduction fight is out the way

[@Irishman40y]

Definitely not no where ready yet!! big fights out their for him as the post says​@ShahanAhmed-h5l

[@Irishman40y]

Correct big fights get weight down before title fights . Lot work 2 do yet

[@ashbar5952]

The biggest name he’s fought is cbs, how does this fight make him ready for wardley etc?

[@roblaidlaw6508]

@@ashbar5952 he's already a 2 Weight world champion ( if you count bridgerweight). Has tons of experience sparring hundreds of rounds at HW.

[@robertunsworth2212]

How big he was? He was fat. He was around 30 pounds overweight

[@marcus-ib9gi]

He just put weight on his midsection and backside

[@lukestorey343]

Good interview… even Keown helped it along!

[@pressupuk]

He fought almost his entire career weight drained so no one knows how good he actually is..yet

[@jasonharryphotog]

He is not very exciting is far

[@pressupuk]

@@jasonharryphotog I agree to some extent. Last 2 fights at higher weights have been 1st round knockouts so let's see how he gets on now he's at a much preferred weight

[@paulboyne8786]

Like most fighters

[@pressupuk]

@@paulboyne8786good point but not to the same extreme though as Okolie

[@JB-td9fz]

Oh dear😂😂😂 he made the eight for years. Now hes obese and undisciplined, he's going no where at heavyweight

[@andymcnab2.0]

Bulkolie is a accident waiting to happen, he'll get bashed up facing anyone of the top 20.

[@ShahanAhmed-h5l]

Nah he can do well and beat many top guys

[@andymcnab2.0]

@ShahanAhmed-h5l You're as deluded as bulkolie.

[@ShahanAhmed-h5l]

Nah you probably thought Dubois couldn’t rise like he’s done this year either.

[@mozinho1980]

Mmmmmm big you were, Yoda doing the punditry these days?

[@birggsyaimsey8064]

He's deluded if he thinks he'll become a heavyweight world champ 😂

[@pleebianmusk]

He could feasibly become a world champion

[@ShahanAhmed-h5l]

Don’t be quick to write people off. The best of Okolie is possibly still yet to come sometimes the time is just right. Look at Dubois for example it’s his time now.

[@ghsense2626]

He will KO Joshua

[@whereis99]

People said Dubois couldnt do it..

[@whereis99]

@@ghsense2626😂😂relax he is not dubois

[@mattydavies9584]

Fab wadley is in the top 10 and okolie is in at 5th and both want to prove they belong at that level, makes sense they fight in my eyes

[@dylanbodenham6727]

Tbf he was blowing after that 2 mins lol

[@user-lg9rf9df7w]

The only reason I would like 2 see Bakole vs Okolie is 2 be able to watch Okolie lose all teeths in his mouth

[@rodbrown8306]

All about the Frank Warren stable, how about one of them putting up their hands and saying, "I want Martin Bekole"..none of them have the guts too...can't respect any of em' anymore! There's one for you Lawrence, if you can honestly claim you'll fight anyone!...and that goes for the rest of them....fwiw, Lawrence needs to be a bit under 250lbs.

[@lfcspectre4335]

Mighty Butterbean Jordanite = Top LAD Proper Clobber ✊👊

[@indigoskyfall9862]

It wasn’t till they put a pic of okolie on fight night from old, I saw that he looked like a skull 💀 you don’t think of a cruiser being weight drained. But when I saw that pic, and then looking at him now, it’s clear he was killing himself as a cruiser

[@darrellcairns1007]

I'm sorry...but I really can't see this guy being quicker than some of the top heavyweights .... he was a slow cruiserweight..but time will tell ??

[@sma3429]

No one will want to get hugged by Okolie. He’ll definitely threaten

[@rockclimbingskills]

A great win against the guy from the local pub

[@coachkitson2998]

I like Okolie undefeated to me top fighter ❤️🙏🏾

[@StevenCavanagh-od8lq]

The guy was put in there for mr cuddles to look good so how can it be classed as a statement win

What's Martin known doing there apart from play in on his phone

[@vantheman1238]

Simon Jordan knows absolutely nothing about boxing and absolutely nothing about how to prepare for a professional boxing match and knows diddly squat about body conditioning. Jordan made a lot of money with mobile phones 80 years ago and then owned a football team where he upset everyone he came into contact with. Amazes me how people give this man airtime and listen to his opinion as of it means anything.

[@domsmithsen]

Only world title he got a chance of winning is wba regular lol Charr vs pulev currently due to fight soon he can fight the winner

[@EverDayBest]

The Charr and Pulev fight already happened last weekend..

[@Vespatim19]

spoon fed all his career till an average fighter beats him then back to the corpses

[@etherealdreams7936]

"Kentucky-Fried Okolie"

[@Jimmy-2-Times]

I cant think of a fighter thats had it as easy in the sport..financially backed his whole career with GB.. sponsorships the whole way..signed by matchroom and gifted the mose hand picked..manifactured route to world championship title ever ...all the while stinking the place out regularly..should have been disqualified against CBS ..docked 2 points for holding..floored 3 times.. Then He comes back against extremely extremely limited opposition and is awarded a wbc silver title after 1 fight at HW..

[@seanlinesteammvg4967]

Come on he beat a fighter who’s ranked 138 🙄 no disrespect to him but I don’t think he’s elite enough for the heavyweight division 🤷

Whatever you do don’t listen to Mr Jordan.

[@Random-ln5mt]

Audley Harrison 2.0

[@AdamColbert-yl5ut]

The only 2 weight world champion who hasn’t fought anyone. Also bridgerweight is just a haven for crap boxers who can’t make it at cruiser or heavy.

[@TheGreatest1974]

Wardley, Adeleye and Clarke would all beat Okolie.

[@Ghostpill1711]

I agree

[@ShahanAhmed-h5l]

Nah Okolie would beat all 3 of them, definitely Clarke. Okolie fast reaction times in the mid range would allow him to time those guys coming in and his fundamentals are stronger than Wardley’s I’d say.

[@amma9518]

David adeleye punches really hard and fast

Not a fan of Okolie but it was short notice he was probably 20stone two weeks ago, he could beat the B level heavyweights now purely based off talent and speed
