Okolie: The most important thing is to win, then the world title shot is there - search results

. . It's not the end of the year Lawrence Okolie wanted, but when the former European cruiserweight champion gets upset about things, he has done a job of superlatives by not letting it show. Okolie had expected to box for a world title on Saturday evening. He had waited 12 months for a fight with Krzysztof Glowacki for the long vacant WBO title. But when Glowacki failed a coronavirus test, the title fight was over. Okolie now faces another Polish opponent, Nikodem Jezewski.
