Turki taking some L's past weekend ...some guys just here for the money now , Bakole , Garcia , Haney .. Turki needs to drop them now ..
The DAZN UK subscribers are being rinsed even more than Turkey - they are being asked for Box Office on top for these average 'Box Office' cards and an incredible 16 people actually paid for them at the weekend.
I know it's the risk what Turki takes , Eubank Vs Benn was a success on PPV and a great fight tbh The NY and Saudi card this past weekend wasn't .. Very true ..
Yeah, I always thought it was standard practice, especially at that level, to have dedicated nutritionists and S&C coaches.
Have as many dietitians as you want, but if they feed you chicken and rice but your sod off to Maccys everyday its not going to matter. Clearly has no discipline. As big as he is and with his career, his calorie intake is going to be high. Bakole must be on a sumo diet to be that big. Just watching an interview with Billy Nelson and Bakole is a strict vegetarian who doesn't eat much British food? What's he eating the fking Garden Centre? To be fair to Billy, he looks frustrated as hell and makes a telling whether Martin likes it or not comment.
Maybe Bakole isn’t as good as a few on here have made him out to be. I’ve seen comments on here that he would destroy AJ. I seriously doubt that and I’m no AJ fan.
AJ would do a Ruiz 2 job on him. Bakole would obviously have a puncher’s chance early on but Joshua would simply have to box from distance in a borefest to cruise to a decision win.
Martin's not eating at the garden centre — he’s eating through it. Bakole is treating Scotland’s ecology like it’s the Amazon rainforest. Every time he meal preps, a tree cries. He's living off leaves and lentils while Billy Nelson’s out here hanging his carcass out to dry like a slab of meat.
A quote I found online from Billy Nelson, Bakole's trainer, "Whether Martin wants it or not, we're going to have a nutritionist. He's stubborn, a vegetarian, and only eats Congolese food from certain shops in Glasgow. But without discipline and a professional approach, he simply won't reach his potential. Shape is the key. Not stamina, but excess weight is the enemy. A skinny Bakole would have stopped Ajagba"
If he’s vegetarian he must be eating kilos of fufu every day which is a starchy African food. I reckon he probably eats blocks of cheese and copious amounts of pasta. What a total shambles.
It’s a bit late now. It shouldn’t take you getting smash to bits in 2 rounds and then a draw against a journeyman to realise that being 300lbs when you were 250lbs a few years ago isn’t optimal. It’s unprofessional and it’s basically a sliding doors moment in Bakole’s career. Also why did Nelson let him get away with such unprofessional habits?
