    So Yoka vs Takam is off? It’s probably for the best.

    Agreed. Takam once was a decent operator / contender, but he's declined into a gatekeeper now. Bakole is more dangerous as he will have more fight about him.

    Wouldn't be surprised if Bakole KOs the French paper chin

    Better than Takam, that's for sure.

    Decent fight. I lean towards Yoka because while Bakole has good power he isn't aggressive enough and he's pretty limited otherwise. I think Yoka will outbox him to a UD.

    Have to give Yoka a huge edge in skill, speed, movement - just about everything, but he's just so fragile and is basically a KO waiting to happen. Bakoles power and pressure will probably bail him out eventually.

    Bakole is not so good, Yoka is a better fighter overall and he should win, Yoka vs Hrgovic would be a more competitive fight...

    Good test for Yoka, Bakole isn't a top level heavy but he's big enough and tough enough to provide a solid test to any pretenders. Will be interested to see how Yoka does against an opponent who's there to win. I'm thinking Yoka wins a decision or late stoppage.

    With his power he probably thinks that he has a better chance against the rather chinny Yoka.
    Overall a good fight, Yoka is the favourite, but it's a close fight.
