Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker will now fight Martin Bakole following Daniel Dubois withdrawal

[dan_cov]

Really happy with the replacement though I have to say Bakole looks really out of shape

but joshua ducked ortiz when he only gave him 44 days notice!

your a ful with an agenda. nothing is worse... An id iot who is convinced he is right...

[billeau2]

Wow... Here we go! When has Dubois ducked people? Would it really be smart for him to go in sick against Bakole? And Parker is at his best but Bakole is a real test as a matter of fact? I think Bakole wins this. This is a great fight with two guys stepping up. My hat goes off to both of them. Dubois is also a real one... If he says he is sick I have no reason not to believe him.

Turki may work for some medieval MFers but only money and influence can pull in this level of replacement with days to go

I've seen some comments on the page...boyyyy, the unidimenssional dubious is getting some stick here, isn't he? Good ol' Frankie W must work his backside off really hard if he's to ever get the opportunity for his mutant hero to fight again in Riyadh season! I bet the puppet master, Turki Al Varez is pissed off big time!

You are the one who said 44 days wasn't enough time to prepare when a full training camp is often 42 days. You started with your premise which was: joshua ducked ortiz then you worked backwards and tried to find a reason to justify ortiz ducking him and what you came up with simply made no sense. Short notice lol. This is short notice. 44 days is not and never will be.

Parker 1.0 (before Joyce) was a puncher who heavily relied on his chin to get him through tough times. Parker 2.0 is a boxer/mover who does not want to get hit (because Joyce cracked his chin) and will win this fight by boxing circles around Bakole for 12 rounds. Even if Bakole is gassed, I don't think Parker goes for the kill.

Parker 3.0 Knocks out everyone with 1 punch wilder style

[TheOneAboveAll]

Much easier fight for Parker. Parker by wide UD; albeit with a few scares.

[ELPacman]

This is a real good replacement to be honest. As long as Bakole comes in decent, he might get to Parker. Otherwise, this is going to be one boring fight with Parker doing a lot of hits and moves to a boring UD.

teddy atas just said parker asked to fight bakole as a replacement, he wanted the best guy available, the card as been saved, its still one of the best cards ever
