Bakole vs Parker, Who wins

Didn’t he beat the two biggest punchers in boxing in his last two fights?

There’s nothing wrong with Parker’s chin and as an overall package he’s improving all the time.

 

Horrible assignment for anyone. Foreman-esque bear in front of you.

Zhang/Joe Joyce/Miller type matchup would be interesting. Joyce is cooked now though. Any big guy will do.

 

I think Bakole should change his name to 'Baby King' and he'd beat big old slanty eyed Zhang.

 

Parker wins and wins convincingly. Parker is levels above Anderson, far better head movement, better chin, better movement, better ring IQ, he won't just stand in front of Bakole and try to beat him to the punch and then stand there to be hit by counters. He'll do what he did vs Zhang, go to the body early, feint to keep Bakole guessing as to when he will attack and switch levels to again keep Bakole guessing.

Bakole has power but he won't be able to sustain the kind of work rate required to break Parker down. If Zhang can't finish Parker with one shot, neither can Bakole, he'll need to grind him down like Joyce did and that simply isn't happening, Bakole would drop dead of cardiac arrest after 4 rounds of setting Joyce's pace.

Parker UD.

 

50-50. It would be exciting to watch Parker walk the tightrope. He could get brutally KTFO at any time.

 

Old Parker loses, but this new Parker takes him on points because he can gain his respect, he can stand his ground better now than he used to.

 

I like Bakole vs Zhang myself

 

Parker UD.

I like Bakole and hes a good fighter, but imho a lot of what we saw just now was down to Jared being a bit of a hype job who had barely fought anyone.
