Lawrence Okolie as soon as once more has a “world title” round his waist after flooring WBC “bridgerweight” champion Lukasz Rozanski thrice en path to a first-round end.
Okolie (20-1, 15 KO), practically a 12 months to the day after falling to Chris Billam-Smith, put Rozanski (15-1, 14 KO) down together with his signature straight proper inside two minutes. A 1-2 scored the second knockdown, after which Okolie sealed the take care of a gnarly uppercut in opposition to the ropes.
3️⃣ knockdowns scored!

I would not name that sufficient knowledge to say whether or not Okolie is again to the height type that noticed him dismantle Krzusztof Glowacki earlier than subsequently regressing to the large huggy bear of previous, however a minimum of we all know the ability remains to be there. Hopefully he’ll be happy with this win and transfer again to a weight class with precise opposition.
As for Rozanski, it seems beating Alen Babjc is not enough preparation for the world stage.
