Lawrence Okolie vs Ebenezer Tetteh – results and post-fight report
Published
9 months agoon
The Onikan Stadium in Lagos, Nigeria had a card that featured several talents, with former two-weight world champion Lawrence Okolie dominating the action, forcing Ebenezer Tetteh to withdraw after two rounds of a scheduled 10-round heavyweight bout.
Okolie (23-1, 17 KO) was the last fighter to be eliminated in July, successfully defending his WBC silver belt by defeating Kevin Lerena within 10 rounds at Wembley Stadium. Tetteh (23-4, 20 KO) entered this fight on the back of two straight losses and retired after seven defeats to Dillian Whyte in December 2024, before It took Frazer Clarke less than two minutes until the Ghanaian was released in April.
The 37-year-old’s right hand caused trouble almost from the opening bell, and every time Okolie landed cleanly, he looked unsteady.
Another well-timed right hand shook Tetteh to his boots and he finished the round bravely, but the writing was firmly on the wall.
“The Sauce” came in relaxed and his right hand did the damage while his left came into play, taking out Tetteh in the second.
Tetteh somehow saw the round end, but looked like he didn’t want to be in the ring, which was proven when he didn’t come out for the third round.
Okolie is the number one contender for Oleksandr Usyk’s WBC title, but the 33-year-old could face Moses Itauma after the WBC ordered them to fight earlier this month.
Yoka destroys Korte
Former French Olympic gold medalist Tony Yoka wasted no time in scoring a bankable victory over Patrick Korte, needing less than two minutes of the scheduled 10-round match to emerge victorious.
Yoka (15-3, 12 KO) unloaded with several unanswered jabs and a right uppercut that followed a delayed pole strike from Korte (23-6-1, 19 KO) and was unable to continue the fight.
Undercard remaining
In six rounds, Shiloh Defreitas (7-0, 3 KO) scored a points victory over Kabiru Salawu (7-2-2, 6 KO) in the welterweight and lightweight divisions. Basit Adebayo (9-0-1, 4 KO) drew with Sikiru Shogbesan (23-4-1, 10 KO), both on deck in the opening round.
In the super lightweight division, 17-year-old Raheem Animashaun (19-0, 12 KO) scored points in the fight against Isaac Chukwudi (5-4-1, 1 KO).

Lewis Crocker vs. Liam Paro – large fight preview and predictions
Published

June 23, 2026
On Wednesday, Lewis Crocker heads to Australia to defend his IBF welterweight world title against Liam Paro for the first time.
Crocker will face Paro at the Pat Rafter Arena in Queensland, live on DAZN in the UK and Kayo Sports in Australia.
Crocker (22-0, 11 KO) became world champion in September, defeating Paddy Donovan twice before winning the rematch by split decision.
Man from Belfast recorded his second victory over Donovan after the first victory in March last year, and his rival was disqualified for hitting him after the bell.
Paro (27-1, 16 KO) is trying to become a world champion in two weight categories, having previously reigned in the super-lightweight division.
The 30-year-old won the title with a unanimous decision victory over Subriel Matias in Puerto Rico before winning the belt in his first defense against Richardson Hitchins.
The Australian has since won twice, overtaking David Papot in his last appearance in September.

McKean meets Taliva
Heavyweight Demsey McKean will look to continue his rebuild when he faces Liam Talivaa for the vacant IBF Pan Pacific title.
McKean (24-2, 16 KO) had his career cut miniature after a last-round loss to Filip Hrgovic, followed by a brutal first-round loss to Moses Itauma.
The 35-year-old southpaw returned to winning ways with back-to-back stoppage victories.
Talivaa (8-2, 4 KO) last won the IBF Oceania-Orient title, defeating Faiga Opelu by first-round stoppage.
Undercard remaining
At cruiserweight, Luke Modini (13-0, 11 KO) will likely need distance to beat Peng Qu (17-2-1, 12 KO), while Riley Candy (8-1, 5 KO) could stop Nathan Watson (11-3, 3 KO) at super middleweight.
Vegas Larfield (13-1, 9 KO) can hand Shamal Ram Anuj (11-8, 8 KO) his fourth defeat in a row in a featherweight clash.
Heavyweight Nelson Asofa-Solomon (2-0, 2 KO) can secure a third straight knockout over debutant George Burgess, and Stevan Ivic (8-0-1, 2 KO) can do the same against Caleb Tialu (3-7, 3 KO), also a heavyweight.
Prospective super welterweight fighter Jack Javed (1-0) should overtake Lance McDonald (1-5-1, 1 KO).
