LAWRENCE OKOLIE insists he will silence the boo boys by becoming a big-hitting heavyweight star.
The former WBO cruiserweight champion is confident he can become an entertainer in the sport’s glamour division.
Okolie, 31, will make his debut in the top division on December 7 against the little-known German Hussein Muhamed.
The Hackney-born puncher failed to deliver thrills in his latter days as a cruiserweight even in wins over Michal Cieslak and David Light.
Then came a points defeat to former gym mate Chris Billam-Smith to surrender his WBO crown in the division.
