Kabayel at one point was co-promoted by Top Rank. I don’t even think they promoted one fight for him. He fought a few bouts in Europe. His career has stalled since beating Chisora. He did score decent wins over Rudenko & Kevin Johnson. He beat some Lazaridis guy & Rovcanin who are Euro journeymen . The Huck fight would have been a decent payday now he is back to waiting around. 4 fights in just over 4 years…

That is a good fight, I hope it happens. Kabayel has done nothing since Chisora fight. he was scheduled to fight Fury, but it didn`t happen because Wilder prevented it.

The thing is who's lactually looking after Kabayel? Yoka appears to be scared stiff of fighting outside of France, so who ever it is could force Tony into not having hometown advantage for once & make a decent contest . The winner could make good money out of fighting boxers such as Hughie Fury, filip Hergovic or Ollo Wallin ECT!.......

Yoka is a big draw in France & he was willing to fight Hrgovic but Bakole blocked it & gets his fight with Yoka on May 14. I would want to go to France because the pay would be pretty good if there was a purse bid. I have no idea who looks after Kabayel in Germany. He was co-promoted by Top Rank but no idea who he deals with in europe…

Good fight, worthy of the European title, hope it happens
