I've seen some people call for this matchup after tonight. Wardley does have some serious explosive power and killer instinct but I think Bakole would beat him up and stop him. What an exciting fight that would be though.
This would be a great fight! Bakole would be the fave but I can defo see Wardley knocking Bakole out.
Would be interesting to see if Wardley's aggressive blitzing style is still succesful when he's facing a big puncher who's durable.
If Wardley's power is as crazy as it seems to be then I think he may starch the very hittable and not unbreakable Bakole. But if not then Bakole does the same thing he did to Anderson.
Just saw that Wardley is the WBA mandatory now. I want to see this fight as an eliminator. I think this would be FOTY material, would be an absolute barnburner. I feel that people overrate Bakole a bit here and people underrate Wardley on here.
Another clueless comment from you. Why would Bakole take a WBA final eliminator when he’s pencilled in for the IBF final eliminator, and IBF actually enforces title matches?
Wardley is not Anderson who stands in the middle of the ring and waits to be laid down, on the contrary, Wardley would beat up Bakole because Bakole is overrated...
Clarke also had Wardley out on his feet several times, and Bakole most likely hits like 15 times harder than Clarke.
Use your eyes and most importantly your brain for once. I said I want to see this as an eliminator for one of the titles. And I think it would be a great fight. If thats so hard for you to understand!
Also, Dubois/Parker will probably fight Usyk this summer and by then Bakole will need to stay busy and keep making a claim for himself in the rankings as he hasn't fought since the summer.
I agree Bakole is overhyped on here and Wardley is underrated on here. I have Wardley stopping Bakole actually.
