Lawrence Okolie claimed the WBC bridgerweight title with a first-round win over Lukasz Rozanski, knocking him down three times before the referee ended the bout in the UK. Okolie, a former WBO world champion at cruiserweight, expressed his joy at the victory and stated that he was putting the "KO back in Okolie" in this new weight division created by the WBC to bridge the gap between cruiserweight and heavyweight. Although the bridgerweight division is not widely recognized in the boxing world, Okolie's victory marks a significant moment in his career.
