Boxing Light fights back but his moments of success are fleeting

[Lupin]

But Okolie is a difficult man to fight. His long arms wrapped up Light when he stepped in and he used his size to lean his weight down on the shorter man.

The jab pawed at Light but then all of sudden Okolie's right would flash over targeting the head but then, after the next jab, thud heavily into the body.

While Light punched at him with single shots, Okolie made it hard for him to sustain any combinations.

In the ninth round the challenger did clip Okolie with a right hook and Light dredged up the energy to press forward after his tormentor. But he was frustrated.
