He beat Frank Sanchez in May 2024 and he's not fighting again until February 2025?

This guy hasn't won anything yet. Don't you have to win a title first, actually accomplish something, before you start taking whole years off?

He started doing this at 26. He's going to be 33 when he gets in the ring again.

That's a whole lotta prime passing in the rearview mirror.

But he isn't the only one, I guess. Lots of guys sitting around waiting for that annoying Sheik to open his wallet.

 

You are 100% correct about this.

It's sad to see so many heavyweights have their careers ruined by inactivity.

There's been a lot of good heavyweights the past few years - but because of inactivity, they are sometimes ruined before they have a world title fight. Kabayel's German promoters have done a poor job for him, he should have been having at least two fights (preferably 3 fights) per year.

I thought things would get better with Turki, but Kabayel, Parker and several others should have had a second fight this year.

 

I would write Joshua off the event and put Parker against Dubois, he deserves it more than Joshua.

 

Kabayel stops Bakole with his bodywork.

Bakole's alright, but that's about it. Kabayel is like the much better version of Dillian Whyte, the version of Dillian Whyte that Eddie Hearn and the Matchroom fanboys made Dillian Whyte out to be.

 

I'm pretty sure he's fighting Parker in December. Zhang said he's going to fight before the end of the year and in Parker's training videos you can see he's preparing for a southpaw.

 

Kabayel is the same age as Parker he should have had a title shot long ago. The situation is not his fault its the top fighters refusing to fight new contenders. Kabayel won the European belt in 2016. With the way boxing works now the risk of doing what you're saying simply isn't worth it.

 

Seems Turki has little plans for him

Anyway back to the fight at hand...

 

I imagine Kabayel owning a couple of Kebab shops and fighting once a year and maybe getting a title shot one day and not getting punch drunk and living a pretty good life overall.

 

I think this will come down to Bakole's fitness and weight as it's a tough fight on paper.

I do think Chisora was at one of the lowest points of his career when Agit edged by him. If the pressure of Chisora put him on the back foot you have to imagine Bakole will have him going backwards.

 

Very good fight I expect Kabayel to be strong early on and then Bakole to come into it later on, that's if his stamina has improved as much as I think it has.

 

Bakole isn’t the next savior of boxing at HW, but he’s good and strong enough to take several eye catching combos from Kabayel before putting him to sleep in Round 6.

 

Bakole beat Anderson, who would have been beaten by a couple of other heavyweights, he is a good fighter, but Kabayel will stop him, he is a better fighter...
