Hype job? Maybe you need to learn more about boxing

Anyone that knows top tier boxing fitness and what is required to make it to the top knew what would be the outcome of this fight. I actually said a few days ago I would be shocked if Bakole had 6 rounds in him at best. We have fight camps for a reason, I can only come to the conclusion that the money was just to good to turn down. I hope Bakole and his team learned a valuable lesson tonight and don't do this again. Did they not think Joseph Parker is a finely tuned professional? Did they think he was a cab driver / part time boxer.

He was out of shape and traveled from africa to the middle east on a 3 day notice. We all knew he was going to lose.

I think they wanted the money. Nothing else made sense. That Stevenson fight too. Smdh.

Crazy and up and comer took this on short notice against such an immensely talented veteran. I picked Parker, but I sure didn't see this coming so I don't want to take any credit for it.

Only jarrell Millar can fight at 300lb, but that's with peds

[HoltHorror]

Only James Toney can fight without training

Tired, out of condition, just here for the payday.

It was clearly a poor decision taking this fight. The delayed fight made it impossible for Bakole.

Hope it was a lot of money, because literally nobody fights you now Martin
