I think this is gonna come down to Counterpunching, and who does it best. In this case, I believe Okolie just has more power than Chamberlain and can take a bigger punch than Chamberlain.

While Chamberlain may get there first, Okolie will be a half a split second after through a "counter-punching punch through" and connect with some shots.

Chamberlain dodges shots good. His chin is ok, but not tested to any large extent from a puncher like Okolie at this division. However, they say Chamberlain has sparred with Deontay Wilder, and conversely Okolie has reportedly "dropped" Joshua in sparring.

I just feel Chamberlain will meet Okolie at the counter-punch crucible and while he may land a slightly later, he will land harder.

Will Chamberlain get out of the way? Box and move like Silly Joe Saunders, or like a good slick slip and move fighter can? We will see. But, if he gets caught not moving fast enough to take away some of the sting of an Okolie body shot, we may see a ko.

Not gonna call a round, but through this analysis, and considering Chamberlain's endurance to some extent, expect a 7th or 8th round stoppage TKO on the ropes.
Good fight and I am not sure who will win this one,! they don't seem to like each other roll on a good fight for the new year.
Okolie seems a bit emotional about it. Chamberlain just wants to fight and get it over with. lol....
