    Two massive sized power punchers with absolutely no gas tanks.

    This was a money move by Bakole. Dude rolled off the couch.

    AJ should fight Zhang or Bakole

    But he won't because he'd get chinned by them

    Foot in the door to get Turki to give him fights. Don't know why he wasn't on this card in the first place.Forget Stevenson.

    Turki should be ashamed of himself for putting that on in front of paying customers,,,that was nauseating.

    Not a chance, it was a fight between two top 5 HWs, Bakole showed he was willing to fight anyone.

    It was a great move.

    I have a feeling they'll try to make

    Usyk v Dubois
    Parker vs AJ
    Kabayel vs Bakole

    All of a sudden AJ finds and opponent...

    Unfortunately I think your right. Both Parker and Kabayel deserve title shots at this point.

    The fact AJ can be put in the frame against the top contenders after ducking a Dubois rematch is bullsh*t

    It really is.

    But then, this is prize fighting.

    If Usykis fighting Dubois next who else should Parker fight?

    Ideally I think Usyk v Parker, DDD v Kabayel on the same card would be great.

    If not then Kabayel v Parker for a shot at undistiputed is the step forward, as sh*t as that would be for the loser.

    Joshua is not in the contention frame right now

    No Bakole should fight a younger live opponent just with a full camp next time

    I'd be amazed if they put Parker vs Kabayel next but that would be ideal.

    Somewhere Daniel Dubois is feeling a lot better.

    If you get 1 punch KO'd by Parker, I don't want to know what happens when Zhang lands.
