I love to post Most People Don’t Know S_ _t About Boxing! Trust me Anderson will dominate like he always does the only way he loses is due to lackluster defense which will be continually worked on. He has some of the best talent and natural abilities I have seen at not just heavyweight but all weights in years. If he improve the defensive flaws nobody can touch him, Period!

Bakole risking his ranking for Anderson? He was supposed to fight Chaney in a WBA eliminator. Why did that fall through? Hunter is fighting Chaney instead.

Eninem vs Bakole I'm in. Slim Shady ain't winning this one.

Is there a PPV option to not have to watch this, like a no adverts option .. please. I think they did this because the Saudi shows were so well paced and over under time ...... :-)

Miller - cheats how many times and they give him a shot at Dubois!! Then he attacks a car dealership employee and now he gets a high profile against Ruiz?? God knows what opportunities he would get if he wrecked a car and put someone in the hospital...they would probably roll out the red carpet for him! WHO does he have inside dirt on?!

Bro, Andersen is absolutely terrible. Sorry but dude looks like a novice in there at times against no hopers.

So Bakole vs Big Baby - somebody please break this down.
I'm not familiar with Bakole other than looking at his BoxRec page.
Is this a real test for Anderson?

Very much so. When I first read it, I couldn't believe Top Rank would toss him in with Bakole. I had to re-read it again. Seems like with all of Anderson's recent drama, Top Rank wants him to prove his worth in the ring before they decide to continue to invest in him.

Bakole lost to Michael Hunter but he suffered a shoulder injury in that fight. He went in with Kuzmin and traded bombs and got the victory. He also beat Yoka pillar to post.

Bakole is big, durable and comes forward throwing heavy leather. Martin will test the American's resolve, power, chin and boxing skills. I'm not sure Anderson, especially at this point in his career, has it in him to keep Bakole off of him. If Big Baby beats Bakole than I will think much differently about him.

That weird play on words in the article's title wasn't necessary.

There you go, a legitimate test for Anderson for all the clowns who said he should be stepping up, is a bum, etc. This is a HUGE step up. Bakole is no joke. If Anderson beats Bakole clearly, people need to stop calling him a hype job. He's had a lot of problems outside the ring of his own devising. He needs to focus and put it all together to have a good performance against a live dog like Bakole.

He can be outboxed, and will get caught easily.... But he will keep coming forward, he won't stop and is strong and relentless.

We will see what Anderson is made of.

Also, whose cruel joke of an idea was it to have two fighters named Big Baby on the same card?
