I'm a big fan of Cheeseman & was very impressed with him last time out.
There's also Reece Bellotti against Ryan Doyle and three other matchroom prospects
Paul Upton had a good fight in the Irish title win .good boxer lacks power.big cheeseman fan i think he will stop Paul

Re: Luke Watkins vs. Lawrence Okolie - 6 June 2018
Its pretty hard to tell how this one will play out, both guys can bang but are both still pretty raw, I thought Watkins was losing and hurt in his last fight against Stafford, he was coming on just as Stafford was pulled out but he did take too long to get going and was wide open to some of Stafford's wild swings
Okolie beat Chamberlain comfortably as far as the scores were concerned, especially with the 2 KDs and the point deduction for Chamberlain but it wasn't a comfortable night as far as controlling things went, Chamberlain was a lot worse TBF but Okolie looked like had no gameplan or boxing brain, kept trying to fight on the inside when its something he struggles to do
I fancy Okolie to win this one, I do think he'll try to be smarter this time, try and keep Watkins at the end of the jab which was non existent last time and his workrate is better, Watkins def has a real chance in this as Okolie still has a long way to go but I reckon Okolie wins a close one on points

I see that Felix Cash is on the bill. Looks good so far. Interesting backstory too.

I give Okolie 1 thing in that he does seem willing to take good fights at this stage of his career. He's ugly as hell to watch though, hopefully we don't see a repeat of the Chamberlain fight.

Watkins has a more attractive style to watch but I think Okolie will use his gargantuan reach to win an ugly contest.

Reece Bellotti reckons he's going to steal the show. One to watch out for sure.

Re: Luke Watkins vs. Lawrence Okolie - 6 June 2018
Hopefully manage to get a stream on Kodi. My Kodi is a bit temperamental and unreliable so not confident!
Managed to get a cracking stream for McDonnell v Inoue the other week though, for all it lasted

Looking forward to this as Watkins lives not that far from me so im hoping he can do it. Think he will either have to improve his lateral movement to do it tho although i remain positive Okolie is an accident waiting to happen. Have £125 on Watkins to win.

Re: Luke Watkins vs. Lawrence Okolie - 6 June 2018
Think Watkins gave him a decent fight better then chamblin .watkin should of threw his jab more .i think Laurence will get found out against a fighter bigger than him who is half good
