The fight followed an unsurprising trajectory. Okolie flew out of the gates and Tetteh could barely muster the energy to throw a jab back in response. Come the end of the second round, the Ghanaian could not even bring himself to keep his hands up, and he did not bother getting back into the ring when the bell tolled to signal the start of the third. Speaking afterwards, Okolie promised to return to Lagos for his mandatory eliminator bout against Moses Itauma.
