What's your guys opinion of this situation brewing?

I like both for the record, though it's very early days, especially for okolie

Think Okolie will have another 5 fights at least before this fight happens.

I agree he's only fought 4 rounds in his pro career, not sure if it's real but they are portraying needle

Be a very good fight though down the line. Think it will be within next 12-18 months as that division doesn't have much depth.

Could be a good prospects fight in the degale vs groves, Taylor vs Davies type situation

I love them type of fights as the guys are quality but haven't been completely swept up in the business side of stuff yet

I think if they're not gonna fight for a British or English title, then they make as well wait until they hit world level. Obviously no guarantee because Cruiser is strong at the moment, but I thought both guys looked like they came on leaps and bounds from their last fight.

I expected Okolie to start his career a bit less anxious, like Buatsi, calculated. This is the Okolie I wanna see, amazing shot selection against a solid low level journeyman. He keeps learning this quick and he'll be on fire soon, he seems to have size on Chambo.

Chamberlain looks relaxed as hell, and whilst he went life and death with Camacho and Henshaw he's learned from it. I'm hoping for some interesting fights from these two.

You've got Jack Massey, Tommy McCarthy, Matty Askin, Craig Kennedy, and even the winner of a possible Baister/Valilly fight. That's just cruiserweights off the top of my head, no doubt there's more prospects, like Jordan Thompson for instance.
