Ebegging is a thing now isn't it? Some fat bird dropped dead up in Newcastle and her friends wanted to 'send her off in style' (ie, a piss up paid for by soft hearted mugs) and they raised five grand - so it does work. It should be the domain of kids with cancer wanting to go to Disneyland - not folks falling off their bike in Thailand without holiday insurance and definitely not Martin Bakole - he is a big strong, fit unit of a man who can go out and work like I fornicating have to.

Saying that these ebeggers are 10 a penny and the vast majority get less than a tenner in total!

It's all a matter of choice, isn't it? Don't really matter what someone's cause is if no one donates.

I agree it's just so fcuking cringe, always see people asking for money for dog operations, be responsible and have pet insurance or don't have a dog.

I donated a couple of quid to a young lad from my quite poor area to compete in a overseas judo tournament once.

As for Bakole, would love to see him and Kabayel fight one another. That would be a right swing up

Martin Bakole issues threat, cancels GoFundMe after backlash



Heavyweight Martin Bakole threatened anyone criticizing his request for donations to his campaign to become heavyweight champion.

According to reports in his homeland, Bakole launched his GoFundMe bid for £100,000 after being ignored by the Congolese Government.

The Government would not hand over any further funds after Bakole allegedly took the same amount previously for a clash that didn’t occur.

News sources in Congo are now claiming Bakole is ready to pull the GoFundMe after receiving a backlash from the Congolese public.

Some believe Bakole should pay back the £100,000 he owes the Government as the event didn’t occur.

When hearing this fierce criticism, Bakole took to a live social media video to warn those opposing his move.

Heavyweight Martin Bakole issues threats after backlash

“If someone insults me ​​again, we will see each other. Some of you will cover your faces like that when I come to Kinshasa. Let’s see if you will insult me ​​in the face.

“From now on, I will respond to all insults. When I return from the country, I will wait to see if these insults [are said] in my face, and we will see,” said Bakole, according to translators.

The response from Bakole means the GoFundMe was real after doubts. Many thought he might have been hacked after asking for money from a win in Saudi Arabia.

Receiving a substantial purse for a spot on the Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou undercard brought head-scratching when the page was launched.

A heavyweight star ranked number one worldwide by the WBA needing help with funds can undoubtedly be taken the wrong way.

Donations were also made under false names. A majority percentage included digs attached to Bakole’s previous social media activity that he apologized for profusely.

But this latest move will certainly not adhere Bakole to boxing fans in the UK, let alone in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

GoFundMe page

As of Wednesday morning, the GoFundMe page was ‘not accepting donations’. However, Bakole had only raised £70 of his £100,000 target. Even then, £40 of that was pledged by anonymous or those who want to troll Bakole.

Not to mention, Bakole seems to have donated £20 to himself. A solitary £10 donation looks to be genuine at this point.

Bakole is due back in action in the coming months. He could feature on the Fury vs Usyk undercard or on a March 9 extravaganza to close Riyadh Season.

The 20-1 contender can expect to bank another substantial purse on his way to a potential world title shot in 2025.

£45 raised of £100,000 target

He tweeted that he was next in line for an eliminator..

Has he not got sponsors?

Isn't he Congolese royalty?

Brass neck indeed

Likely heard about all those Nigerian Princes and wanted in on the action

[Controversial]

Off topic but just saw that Bakole is the younger brother of Junior Ilunga Makabu who Bellew won the CW title from.

I read that, perhaps he should ask his brother for some.
Hilarious reading the grand total of £70.
I thought it was a spoof account but it appears not.
Wonder if Billy has anything to say on the matter, it's not a good look is it.

So after Bakole became more known.. he hinted at wanting to fight Bellew at HW after he fought Haye, to avenge his brothers loss.

him and Billy have odd vibes.

[Ruthless-RKO]

This time last year.

I understand why he’s taken this fight.

He’s avoided, no one wants to fight him.

Gotta take what he can.
