    Bakole won 4-5 rounds. It's a razor close win for him or a draw.

    I'm glad Ajagba win this! You're not french but in France the Congolese are just too much confident and very boring with Martin Bakole...

    I don't think any processional boxer even heavyweights should be fat. Just shows total lack of discipline to be at their very best come fight night.

    Ajagba 98-92 final tally.

    There were a couple of close rounds, some may have it a bit closer, but Ajagba clearly won.

    6-4 Ajagba but anything 8-2 or 7-3 is fair. No way Bakole has any argument for a win or draw.

    Good fight and impressed by Ajagba. He made adjustments well throughout and frustrated Bakole. Took some big shots early, and instantly adjusted the following round when Bakole had a great 3rd.

    Good chin, those shots where bombs. Bakole clearly hits like a sledge hammer.,

    Shame for Bakole; if he trained properly and entered the ring in shape then he could have very well won this fight. As it is, he came in obese and was chasing flies for much of the fight. I can't have sympathy for Bakole anymore; this is solely due to his sloth.

    DAZN does a 180 and now this fight was razor close, and a draw is warranted.

    I'm on 6-4 Ajajba as well but could see a case for a draw
