    I hope Bakole hasn't slimmed down too much. Obviously we don't want him to come in grossly overweight but I would prefer him to come in no lower than 260 and no higher than 280

    Billy Nelson said a couple of weeks ago that he wanted Bakole to come in between 270-275. Seems like a good weight for him. The thing with Bakole is that at a heavier weight his hands are still fast, but his feet become stuck in the mud lol

    Anderson usually comes in around 240 albeit he was 251 last time out

    Bakole looks at least 20lbs heavier but it could be as much as 30-40lbs

    It's hard to tell but I suspect it probably is more like 30 and possibly even more

    Bakole's face looks certainly trimmer then in the Takam fight. I noticed that especially in some of the previous interviews.
    I doubt though that he will come in lower then 280.
    Anyway, my gut feeling is thar he'll bully Anderson and stops the ceramic chewing bar after 6 rounds.

    I am betting on Bakole.

    Also there is a good chance that Miller will beat Ruiz.

    Good odds.

    It’s not possible for bakole to be 40 surely
    He can’t be more than 32/33 I could be wrong but it suprised me to hear he is 40, that is crazy.

    Having a hard time getting a beat on this one because I am not greatly impressed by either, but my gut tells me Anderson is an American hypejob and Bakole will put him to sleep.

    I mean, Anderson is supposed to be some kind of big puncher, but he is only managing UDs against guys like Martin and Merhy, so there could very well be LESS to this guy than Deontay Wilder.

    Anderson is unproven and overrated.

    Moses Itauma might meet Anderson in the future and would beat him.

    If Anderson does that cute lean back slip he does normally, he's going to sleep. He kept doing it to Martin, and Martin was cracking the **** out of him. Can't do that against Bakole.

    Maybe the WBA can name a "super big baby."

    In the absence of bone density testing then you have to go on looks. Bakole looked in his 30s when he first started fighting in the UK. I have always thought his age was way off, and DRC is a country notorious for age fraud.

    How marketable would he be if people knew his real age? He isn’t that marketable now with his fake age.

    His real age being 8 years above his official age isn’t impossible. I am certain he is at least 4-5 years older than his stated age.

    I think Anderson is ponderous and mainly throws telegraphed single shots. I don't fancy his chances here.
