We're talking Bakole with a camp, like the Anderson version. Even in that he was far too heavy but he did a job on Anderson and looked accurate with his punches. I'm going with Itauma in one or two rounds. @billy nelson What's your opinion?
Love your posts, Erik. Do you mind giving a quick breakdown if you have the time? I think Itauma is too fast for plodding Bakole whose feet are in cement. I also think Bakole would be intimidated by Itauma.
If Itauma wanted to just cruise to a points win he’d be able to do it easily against pudding Bakole, assuming Bakole doesn’t change his ways and stays fat. He’d just light him up by bouncing in and out of range. I’d back him to KTFO Bakole too tbh, his hands are just too quick. If Bakole actually changes his ways, drops like 30lbs of lard and looks great in a fight before it could be a different story and a very intriguing fight.
Martin 'The Sparring King' Bakole will have already destroyed Itauma in sparring, Itauma will smoke him in a real pro boxing fight, but Billy Nelson will make excuses for the loss so in Billy's mind it will be be 1-1 with an asterisk.
