Lawrence Okoli left Hearn?

There are rumors in the British media about the termination of cooperation between the Matchroom Boxing promotional organization and Lawrence Okoli (18-0, 14 KOs). According to unofficial information, the reigning WBO cruiserweight world champion will now sign a contract with BOXXER.

Until a few weeks ago, Okoli was mentioned among the boxers due to compete on August 20 at a boxing evening organized in Saudi Arabia. However, Eddie Hearn stopped talking about the 29-year-old champion in the context of this event.

Okoli has been associated with Matchroom since the beginning of his professional career. In the last performance, the Briton won Michal Cieslak on points and defended the World Boxing Organization belt for the second time.
