    They know each other but I'm not sure they are very close friends. And they weren't fighting like friends anyway lol, both were throwing bombs and Bakole kept taunting him in the ring. You're not gonna let someone give you brain damage just because you're friends with them.

    Maybe

    I recall an interviewer called OctoberRed was talking about them being very close behind the scenes some time before the fight was made. Kind of seems like Bakole needed an opponent with a name but he was 300lbs. So they gave his mate a pay day.
    They are still professional, so will come to fight. But I highly doubt Takam was there to win

    Agreed, which is why he's fighting Bakole

    Regardless of weight, Bakole is better than Ajagba. Much more durable, more skilled, at least as powerful. Just a better overall fighter. And according to his trainer, Bakole has lost quite a bit of weight since his last fight.

    Anderson’s style seems all wrong for bakole, I think bakole will lose on points

    you describe a totally one sided fight that only one guy can win....then say great matchup.

    I clearly said Anderson can win if he survives the first half of the fight, but I just don't think he does. If he does survive the first half, the tide will most likely turn in his favour. That's why it's a great matchup on paper. Both have a clear path to victory.

    They're both close to/in their prime, which also makes it great.

    I think Bakole will be bang up for this and destroy Anderson. I think Anderson has a leaky defense and only throws single shots.

    Does anyone not realize the bigger implications here. This will be a card featuring a guy called "Big Baby" and another guy called "The Real Big Baby"

    What a time to be alive!

    I genuinely see Bakole running through and stopping this guy.

    He came in at 299lbs against Takam, and smothered him in 2 rounds. (the fight really only started from the 3rd round). People will laugh at all the sparring stories he tells but genuinely never known a 299lb man to throw punches in batches like a middleweight as he does.

    He can put an act on all he wants, Jared looks nervous. Bakole going to KO him.
