Tbf yoka did sign contract to fight bakole so you can understand why bakole would be upset Yoka was trying to fight someone else when he was signed to fight him. Hes gotta eat aswell

I get it. I understand the reasoning Bakole's team blocked it but it's frustrating because we could have seen Yoka versus Hrgovic instead of Zhang. Additionally, Bakole declined the Hrgovic fight himself.

Step up for Yoka, in this fight we'll see if he can be a serious contender

For both of them I'd say. Chance for Bakole to show he's really grown since the Hunter loss chance for Yoka to show he can do more than knock over tired ex-contenders. Actually really looking forwrd to this one.

Hunter is very good but he won't go anywhere. Bakole was/is a bit raw and "naive"...yoka I dunno...I have mixed feelings about him

Yoka is the future. Bet on it.
Tony Yoka is the smoothest, most poised Heavyweight/Superheavyweight Gold medalist comming out of the Olympic games since Teofilo Stevenson 72' - 76'. Far more advanced in technique than Biggs, Lewis, Balado, Klitschko, Harrison, Povetkin, Cammarelle, Joshua and Jalolov at their respective Gold metal stages.
I LOL when I hear English speaking fans whine about his schooling of Hrgovic and the very good but comparatively robotic Joe Joyce to earn the gold, who "La Conquete" dispatched thrice, twice in 2015 and at the 2016 Olympics. Deal with it. As far back as 2010 he was drubbing Joseph Parker at the youth games. But it's the GREAT work being done with Virgil Hunter, who insists that Yoka is going to be the best Big man since Ali tha has really sold me.

The single most ridiculous statement in the history of Boxingscene.com...also you must deal with the fact that France has 0 quality trainers, virtually no champions even worth talking about, and!!! the Pros is one slice of pie, and the ams is a piece of cake.
