Has there ever been a better sledge?

British cruiserweight boxer Isaac Chamberlain has used rival Lawreence Okolie's local newspaper to advertise the fighter as looking for work following their fight.

Both boxers are unbeaten and will meet in the ring in what is being dubbed "British Beef" on Febuary 3 in London.

In unique fashion, Chamberlain upped the trash-talking before the fight by posting a job adverty on Okolie's behalf.

Chamberlain posted his opponents 'CV' in the Hackney Gazette titled in bold captials "WORK WANTED".

In the 'About Me' section Chamberlain took aim at Okolie's "matchstick legs".

"At 6'5, stacking shelves is not a problem but my matchstick legs can't carry much weight," it read.

🗞 The war of words stepped up a notch today after @IChamberlain_ placed @Lawrence_tko’s CV as a job ad in the @hackneygazette, Okolie’s local paper, offering to find him new work after he knocks him out on Feb 3 @TheO2 😲 #BritishBeef #OkolieChamberlain pic.twitter.com/AXv4hxhrmw

The CV also takes aim at Okolie for working at McDonald's before making it into the Great Britain Olympic boxing squad.

Under 'Previous Experience' it read: "Three consecutive 'employee of the month' awards. First person to do a triple flip with a buger patty. Only employee to give out extra sauce".

Chamberlain also used Ronald McDonald as a reference for Okolie which said, "was nice to have another clown around".

Unsurprisingly Chamberlain was most pleased with his efforts and posed for photos with the newspaper advert.

He boasts a record of nine wins with zero losses and four knock-outs, while Okolie has seven wins with zero losses and six knock-outs.
