Comments Thread For: Martin Bakole eyes Joseph Parker, Agit Kabayel and Zhilei Zhang

You want to stop zhang, but not kabayel or parker? Bakole isnt as big a name as some, so might be avoided so it will be hard to fight Zhang or a parker, who want bigger names. But Bakole v kabayel, why not?

[mjh1969]

Bakole is a good fighter and very powerful and this is why he will be avoided by a lot of the top fighters. These guys can't afford a loss on their record that would risk a title fight for them down the line. I doubt that Zhang will want to fight him for this reason. Miller, Ruiz or Parker will not fight him either. I would pay to watch him and Zhang fight.

I can see Bakole beating Zhang and maybe Parker , Kayabel would be an interesting fight. Any fight is winnable with Bakoles size , strength, and punching power.

Someone give zhang a shot at title. If Zhang has a title, hed give Bakole a fight instantly. If Zhang loses a title shot, hed not mind taking bakole as a comeback from loss type fight. But i doubt Zhang needs bakole before someone gives zhang a lifeline/chance.
Id pick Zhang to beat Bakole though.

Joseph Parker and Agit Kabayel are 2 of the baddest men on the planet. Big credit to Bakole for seeking out the toughest opposition and best opportunities. I'm pretty confident in the follow through and that he'll be in-tough in December.

Miller is wack and Zhang needs a win to get back in the mix

Anyone of these four fighting amongst themselves = good fights

Joseph Parker is abit outside of his target range in my opinion 'Parker in my opinion is not gaining much from fighting Bakole, accept involving himself in a fight which? Can derail his recent momentum which he has built back in his career'.

Martin Bakole latest win is for sure definitively being overrated 'Bakole for all all intents and purposes, he has just won against a domestic level fighter. Just because his last opponent was a American based fighter, that does not mean they were beyond domestic level'.

I am almost certain that there are multiple domestic level UK heavyweight fighters, that would of beaten Martin Bakole's last opponent.

Note: Fights vs Agit Kabayel in terms of gaining rankings, is a good fight 'But is it really a great match up for Martin Bakole? I don't think it is great match making, and there are bigger boxing events which he can be involved in'.

Therefore, I honestly think? Fighters such as Andy Ruiz Junior, Zhilei Zhang, those two fights are great boxing events.

To conclude: Martin Bakole not only needs to actually beat a World level fighter, he needs to be involved in intriguing boxing events. Joseph Parker is beyond his level in terms of? The level of fights Parker should be aiming to fight, nobody here should expect Parker to accept a fight vs Bakole 'I honestly believe that would be bad match making for Joseph Parker'.

Martin Bakole vs Dillian Whyte is still a good match up 'But it does seem like potentially Dillian Whyte would prefer to fight Derek Chisora over Martin Bakole'.

Bakole has built some momentum in is career, but people need to be real? He has only just joined the chasing pack, and I would not even rate him as a major player in that competitive group 'Martin Bakole has still yet to beat a proven World level fighter, or even a fighter who was once a World level fighter'

Carlos Takam is his best win by far 'Solid fighter, maybe at his peak a High End European level fighter' etc.

Bakole is a behemoth, but his hand speed surprised me also, and even the short arm punches looked heavy.

Same here. Pretty good hand speed and work rate for such a big guy. Even when he swats a guy they feel it. Kind of like a Polar Bear swatting you and decapitation follows.... He took some good shots from Anderson also. I'd give Bakole a decent shot against anyone.

[James]

All of these fights would be grat. 50/50.
But no one will fight him unles it is title eliminator or if Turky makes decission.
I think that Hunter would like to fight him again.
