    That is simply soul crushing to think about.

    :lol: If Yoka had stood still for two seconds while Bakole had a full gas tank he would've been on the receiving end of a violent KO loss.

    Had the same conversation about Wallin vs Whyte if Whyte hadn't faked his injury just before the fight...

    It sucks when in every 'big' fight you have to hold your breath hoping the judges play it straight, knowing in your gut they will not.

    I hope the rest of the fights tonight do not suffer from crapy judging.

    I just don’t get why there is so much corruption with this guy. He’s not even marketable. Sure he “won” that gold medal about 6 years ago but he’s not very good, doesn’t have a very interesting style and has lost what little momentum he had anyway. So I have no idea why the judges continue to give out these hilariously poor cards in his fights lol

    I'm not seeing Yoka as glass jawed. FFS he took everything Bakole hit him with, went down hard only once (second was a flash) and survived
    10 rounds. You jokers are acting like he went down 11 times and got clean knocked out unconscious.

    You're not seeing Yoka's amateur career where he was knocked out/stopped or dropped numerous times

    And he didn't take everything Bakole threw at him he ran and he was on his bike most of the night and covered up and wasn't getting caught clean. Bakole is a heavy handed combination puncher not really a one punch guy

    It's not just the fact he goes down or gets stopped. It's the way he reacts to getting hit that makes it worse. Like how Price and Audley used to when they got hit.

    Only watched the highlights but Yoka did a tremendous Amir Khan impression in the chin department tonight. Makes me less sad that the actual Khan has now retired since I now know we'll have plenty of shaky mandible knockdowns and knockouts to look forward to if Yoka stays at this level.

    Congrats to Bakole. He totally bossed this fight and constantly walked Egg Yoke down with zero ***** given at what was coming back. Puts Hunter's win over him in some perspective.
