Nice matchup if it happens
I've never wanted a boxer to win more than I do bakole.

Because you don’t like Yoka or because you like Bakole?

Has Bakole got a chance ? I’d like to see him win

Admire Bakole for his willingness to step it up and take on Yoka in his own back yard.
Sadly I think he'll get screwed over and drop a controversial decision but there'll be better days ahead for him.

It wouldn't be much of a surprise if Martin stops Yoka.

Cant see how it can be a controversial decision. If this fight is still going after 12 then yoka has used his legnth and a bit of negativity and has comfortably outboxed bakole and wins wide. IF the fight is close then someone will get stopped.

I’m still not sure this will happen. If so would be awesome if Bakole won

The loss to Hunter doesn't bode well for this fight. Bakole wanted out of the Hunter fight when the going got tough.

That’s what I was thinking.
Still think it is more 70-30 to Yoka though.
Can't believe I'm still bitter about the Olympics, but I am.

Really 70/30? I just can't see it that way. I've never been impressed with Yoka, so maybe I'm underestimating him to some extent.

Unfortunately yes. I think if Yoka gets hurt, he will probably revert back to his amateur style, get on his bike and keep Bakole off at range. Look at the poll re: Yoka decision. He has an 82 inch reach. Hopefully not though. I want him to go down

I think Yoka will surprise us.

Hopefully the rumoured spars with Joe Joyce have a similar effect on the result of this fight to what they did in Joyce v Dubois.

The fight’s been postponed. They’ve limited indoor arenas to 2,000 which the promoters aren’t happy about. No news on the new date yet but they’ve said postponed and not cancelled.

Sauerland reporting Yoka has accepted fighting Fillip Hrgovic in an IBF final eliminator.
Presumably that’s the Yoka v Bakole fight sh1t canned?
