I didn't know this at first, but apparently Turki offered Bakole a 3 fight deal + a guaranteed title shot in 2026. So this not being a final...
He won't become champ, but he can be in a lot of entertaining fights and do well at a decent level. He convincingly beat Ruiz on my card....
I actually did lol, I saw that and realized it's the perfect fight to make
I want to see this fight next, it makes sense after Zhang's loss the other day. Both 41 years old, close to retirement and Chisora is actually on...

Miller-Hrgovic-AJ is a more impressive run than Makhmudov-Sanchez-Zhang IMO. Not discrediting Kabayel though.
