Beating last year's champions felt good after the loss against them in the first game of the season, especially in the manner it was done. What a buzz. Then the Wolves result was a comfortable win with a real team performance, blending stalwarts and new signings.

Kroupi, what a fantastic finisher, clinical. Something we haven't seen with most of our strikers offering strengths in other areas over the years but I think we have a prolific goalscorer on our hands. Give it a few months and I think Rayan is going to be an absolute menace to opposition defences. In the time he got against Wolves he looked strong, powerful and threatening with the ball at his feet. I always will love this club but we really are in a golden era with the ownership, recruitment, player talent and of course the main at the helm, Andoni. What a man.

Looking forward to the Villa game today. A side which threatened to make a surge for the title earlier on in the season. Although they have now dropped off slightly, they still sit third in the league, only one point behind Man City. Plenty of threat in their team but inconsistency has cost them a lot of points this season. I'm expecting an exciting, end-to-end game with plenty of goals.
My stablemates Ellie Scotney and Caroline Dubois are out in great fights on Easter Sunday at Kensington Olympia. Caroline faces fellow Brit, Terri Harper, for Caroline's WBC and Terri's WBO World titles. Ellie is fighting to become Undisputed Super-Bantamweight Champion of the World. It doesn't get bigger. All four of the major sanctioning bodies titles are on the line, WBC, WBO, WBA and IBF.

It promises to be a great night of boxing, promoted by Jake Paul's MVP promotions and I cant wait to attend and witness my mate, Ellie Scotney, become undisputed!
For myself, I am loving being back training full-time. I am fired up, putting the work in and so excited for what is next. STILL no news yet but looking to have some important meetings soon. Hard hitting, former heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder is facing Derek Chisora. I would've loved to fight Deontay Wilder. His style is similar to Lawrence Okolie's and Richard Riakporhe's so I would've enjoyed that opportunity at some point but unlikely now. Jai Opetaia is fighting my old foe Brandon Glanton in Vegas on March 8th. Another previous opponent, Gilberto 'Zurdo' Ramirez, is going to face fellow Mexican David Benavidez in Vegas in May. So that leaves the WBC Champion, Noel Mikaelian, as the last of the world champions without a bout scheduled. That is a fight I would love to have next in April before going back into a unification fight again. Lots to navigate and negotiate first so we will see what happens. Just know either way, I will be ready for whatever opportunity arises!
