    When Bakole lets his hands go at mid range he has nice punch selection and fluidity for a man his size, that left hook he put him down with was really sharp!

    Its his usual style, but his demeanor is as if he isn't taking this fight serious at all. He is just working on a heavy bag.

    Round 1 Bakole 10-9
    Round 2 Bakole 10-8
    Round 3 Bakole wins by TKO

    He flurries, ref leaps in, way too soon. But it was inevitable.

    Total mismatch. Get Bakole in with a top 10 opponent. It's time.

    How do you see a fight between Bakole and Wilder going?

    Bakole is an elite sparring partner. That's how he has been making his money. He isn't paying out money for camps. He will fight to the level of his opponent and train to it also.

    Good call from the ref

    Get Martin a big fight next

    He'd destroy the likes of Parker and Whyte

    Bakole is a really heavy puncher. Even the arm punches are heavy. And he has fast hands and throws a lot of shots with good variety. He's stopped a bunch of very durable fighters who either don't get stopped or very rarely do. Like I said, crazy fight for a 10 fight prospect to take when many of the top guys don't want anything to do with Bakole. Hulk"s handlers threw him in with arguably the most high risk low reward fighter in the division.

    This fight was utterly pointless.
