“I am disappointed with his actions. Our deal is for one more fight and I hope he respects it. I know that he received another offer, I saw these numbers and I will be ready to discuss them after the end of our contract, ”said Hearn.

“Probably, in another company, Okoli could become a central figure. However, it should be remembered that we did everything for him to become a world champion, and we always tried to act in his interests. I am disappointed with his behavior, but I want to continue working with him. He recently received an offer from us for a duel, but probably did not accept it, ”added the British promoter.

Lawrence Okoli recently received a contract offer from the promotional organization Boxxer. In his last performance, the Briton beat Michal Cieslak on points and defended the World Boxing Organization belt for the second time. It is not yet known when the 29-year-old boxer will return to the ring.
