    According to some sources he is 26 years old and 6'6.

    I do not buy the age btw.

    I had a HUGE bet on Hunter +225 at Bet365. A massive gift. Odds dropped heavily yesterday. For me Hunter was the CLEAR fav pre fight. No idea what the bookmakers took but it was some weird stuff to give such odds on Hunter.

    lol Damn I wish I'd mentioned that the other day then. I've mentioned it before on here a couple of times but the last time I did was probably a few months ago.

    Thanks, can you translate that into a language a non gambling man like myself would understand please. If you place £1 on Hunter to win via stoppage how much would you get back?

    On a side note, do any of you believe the way the fight played out will harm Bakoles and Nelsons close relationship?

    Bakole didn't want to continue, said he injured his arm, Nelson wasn't having any of it and sent him back out and Bakole got bashed up and stopped, he took far more punches than he should of in my opinion..

    Where was Nelson with the towel? Knowing Bakole was one armed, knowing he wanted out, when Bakole was obviously going to get stopped where was Nelson?

    I understand your trainer is there to push you through the hard times, inspire you, help you but they are also there to protect you and I didn't see much protection for a fighter who clearly didn't want to continue and ended up beaten up and stopped.

    I thought bakole underperformed and billy tbh let his heart rule his head..hunter deserved the win no doubt and all credit to him..but in my mind bakole should have won that?

    I’m firmly believe Bakole was looking for a way out and Nelson did the right thing. Bakole May have hurt his shoulder but it wasn’t serious because he was throwing hard rights in the end.

    He wasn't throwing hard rights in the end he was gassed.if he was in better shape he wins the fight imo.
