Joe Cordina has demanded promoter Eddie Hearn buys him a Rolex watch worth over £57,000 after becoming world champion.
Hearn famously gifted Lawrence Okolie a Rolex Sky-Dweller after he won the cruiserweight world title last year, which with a chocolate dial can cost as much as $72,000, or just over £57,000. He had promised Okolie the reward for his first world honours, which he achieved when he won the vacant WBO belt by beating Krzysztof Glowacki at Wembley Arena.
Cordina brutalised Japanese world champion Kenichi Ogawa on Saturday inside two rounds in a stunning finish that has already been viewed millions of times on social media. And the first thing he told Hearn was that he wants a similar watch to the one Okolie was given last year.
