    Same. Although I've also predicted wins for Valenzuela and Crawford. So I'm going all out tonight.:D

    I was this close to making a thread, predicting this could be the night of the upset, and thus far, if the first had fair scoring, we'd have already had two.

    Just caught the replay of the second knockdown, that uppercut was sickening. The way Anderson's head and neck twisted around looked scary.

    Bakole taking people's heads off with arm punches.

    Give me Bakole vs Zhang right now.

    If Anderson wants it, a d that's a big if, Sugar Hill can rebuild him and he can have a resurgence similar to Dubois (maybe not as fast). I just don't think he wants it.

    Itauma team better avoid Bakole in the next 3-4 years. It would be similar fight and Itauma would be eaten alive

    WTF, I should have put some cash on Bakole winning, he was like 2/1 to win. Crazy odds.

    Bookies in boxing honestly ain't got a clue

    Called that one perfectly.

    Now let's see Miller outwork Ruiz and bash him up to a UD.

    Expect Turki to want Bakole vs Parker. Seems only natural, though I suspect Parker will swerve to try and fight Dereck Chisora for a third time.

    I haven’t seen that much of Anderson’s fights really but he looks like he lacks any real power? He was catching bakole but it wasn’t doing anything

    I ain't rating no man as top ten when his best win is either 42 year old Takam or Tony Yoka (who lost to 42 year old Takam).

    Don't get me wrong, he's decent, but he's got plenty to prove.

    Overrating guys for beating mediocre, unproven fighters like this is how hypejobs are made...

    It's not as if the division is exactly strong right now, lower top ten doesn't exactly pick itself... But no, gatekeeper is not harsh.

    To be fair, Bakole is just a horrible opponent to face and no matter whatt Anderson did he was always getting taken out as soon as Bakole was able to get in range and land with his uppercuts and combos. Anderson would've been taken out in round one had the ref not given him all that time to make it to the bell.
