    Why would you say that? I know Ola & he's one of the most down to earth people you could meet.
    Well Ive never made his acquaintance Jaz, convey my apologies.I'm just saying his style is a bit "unorthodox" and he strikes me as somewhat unique in there,in style alone of course,as Ive never met him.?

    Oh seen, generally when people say someone's a headcase they mean he's a lunatic who might flip out any moment a la 90s Tyson. He does have a bit of an unorthodox style, I think part of that is he didn't have much of an amateur career, mainly boxing in clubs in South London but not actually competing. He basically learnt his trade as a sparring partner in the US, particularly with James Toney who he picked quite a bit up off.

    See the smaller shadows of a Toney style in spots,when he sparked Fields and following bout.The waiting and arching up inside uppers,timing.Pretty shifty guy.Puts one or two out there as if he were a bomber also.Just a small shade yes.
