    Interesting. Not a bad fight to be made.

    You never know, who says Martin's shoulder doesn't blow out, when he has a clean target to tee off on, Wach can hurt you. There could be an upset with this one, Mariusz didn't look altogether bad against Szpilka, if that versions shows up, it could be competitive. But I expect a Bakole late possibly questionable stoppage or UD.

    Good opponent for Bakole but why is he fighting him in Poland?

    I hope his crew haven't given up on him after one loss.

    Should be a very winnable fight for Bakole. Wach is an enormous stationary target which is the total opposite of what undid him in his last fight. In retrospect he should’ve been moved more slowly, but at least he’s producing good fights. Hope he’s ready to go the distance, Wach’s utterly imdestructible.

    His trainer posts on the British forum and is fully behind him and defended him several times.

    I can say one thing, Wach is not going to hit the canvas

    Good fight. Favoring Wach here as Bakole is overrated. Bakole has to perform very very well and learn how to use the jab if he wants to beat the iron chinned tower.

    Surprised to see Bakole is a +150 underdog, +500 by decision. Worth a nibble.

    It is in Poland. And its not like he looked stunning against Hunter. If he can't KO Wach, which he probably can't, Wach's got a good enough jab to keep most of the rounds close. And that's all he'll need.

    I wouldn’t be shocked at all if Wach wins. UD for Wach.

    Bakole would need to force the stoppage in order to get the win. Can’t see him getting the nod on the judges cards.

    Wach isn't getting younger. He's not a mover either and Bakole puts his shots together well enough to score a lot on Wach. The question for me is how is he mentally after taking an L. Wach is a vastly different type of fight to Hunter, stylistically in Bakeol's favor I think.

    This going to be streamed by Polish channels or anything online does anyone know? Weirdly interested in this

    Wach has always been irrelevant.
