479: SPECIAL SAUCE

Do not underestimate what Lawrence Okolie has just achieved.

In his 16th pro fight, after only 26 amateur fights, to become world champion, and to do it by taking a former world champion to school is quite remarkable.

We wax lyrical about a special performance from 'The Sauce' as well as an equally brilliant showing from the new EBU champion Lee McGregor on Friday night.

Vergil Ortiz showed why he's the hottest young thing in the welterweight division by stopping former world champion Mo Hooker.

It's also Dillian Whyte's rematch with Alexander Povetkin this week so plenty to get stuck into!
