    Always seemed like an awful matchup for Anderson.

    But Bakole deserves it. He's been ignored for far too long. Not sure anyone beats this man, easily at least.

    The heavyweight division just got more interesting.

      Isn't this where the Rumble in the Jungle was held as seen on YouTube?

            I remember watching that fight as it happened, thinking the end of Ali’s career was at hand and then he turned out the most perfect performance I had seen by an underdog until Holyfield’s performance against Tyson I

              He is getting over hyped. He is like a samuel Peter. Heavy hands but poor defense and speed. Jared Anderson just stood in front of him which was silly. It was just the wrong style for Jared Anderson. Boxers like Joseph Parker will beat Martin.

                Maybe yes maybe know. Parker was knocked out by Joyce who is much slower than Bakole.

                  Agreed. I was thinking the same thing. Any boxer who uses the ring and doesn't go toe to toe with this dude can beat him. Jared Anderson fought his fight. Plus Jared Anderson didn't know any better. He isn't known for being a mover himself. Fury would beat him as well as Usyk. As long as they don't stay and trade with him.

                    Say what you will but he took that ranking which will be very beneficial for his career
