Comments Thread For: Thousands turn out to give Martin Bakole a hero's welcome

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.

If Anderson isn’t a mover then you tell me who is ???
lmao c’mon man

Fantastic to see him get that welcome.

He fought like big George Foreman, and got a welcome like Ali in Zaire by the people.

Anderson isn't a mover, although after Bakole's uppercut he was a shaker. Although Anderson seems to be in good condition & moves in & out he is always going in straight lines without head or upper body movement. We've seen Bakole struggle v Hunter. It is a sad comment on the H/W division that you can count boxers who can move around laterally & show head or upper body movement on the fingers of one hand but Parker probably could &, obviously, Usyk & Fury could. I could, seriously, see Hughie Fury doing well v Bakole. Hughie's big problems seem to come when he is meant to bite down & go for the KO, he wouldn't be asked to do that v Bakole. I haven't seen enough of Torres to know if he could do it.
