Who do you favour in a Dubois-Bakole fight?

Re: Martin Bakole signs with Boxxer
I tend to think similar, Dubois would probably look the better early but if Bakole took him into deep waters he'd probably drown him based off what we've seen. I do like Shane as a coach, would be intrigued what adjustments he'd make if Bakole was getting on top. Don't think he was in the corner against Joyce iirc. Great fight, doubt we see Shalom send another of his heavyweight signings straight on to Queensbury though.joshj909 wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 09:34I don't remember a mandatory being called so must have been voluntary.

Re: Martin Bakole signs with Boxxer
I'll take your word for it. Is that who we'll be seeing Martin against? Hunter is still talking about Bakole...billy nelson wrote: ↑16 Feb 2023, 13:08please believe me Martin punches much quicker than Danieljoshj909 wrote: ↑15 Feb 2023, 09:34I don't remember a mandatory being called so must have been voluntary.

Bakole took his licks and has strong together a hugely impressive set of wins.
Hunter has done nothing since apart from playing tortoise against Povetkin ....and seems retired

What is Hughie doing these days? His career has gone off track.
With his man strength he should be back in the mix

Re: Martin Bakole signs with Boxxer
Really like Bakole and would like to see him get a title shot, but reckon they should avoid revisiting Hunter, not necessary and the mans a nightmare he doesn’t need again just now. There’s other contenders he can knock seven bells out of instead

When you anounce a signing you should have a fight made to anounce, momentum is one hell of a drug…
Bakole vs hunter, hughie, or Parker are all very very good fights. (Doubt we get that though)

That’s what they usually do. Have they even said he’s gonna appear on a card soon?

Re: Martin Bakole signs with Boxxer
I would favour Bakole. I don't know if that Larena fight was an anomaly, I can't see Bakole letting Dubois off if he had him unsteady. I would like to see Martin get a shot at something.Alba wrote: ↑18 Feb 2023, 04:49Billy, good luck with Martin.

Purse bids were meant to be today but Ruiz has withdrawn. I think it’s then Wilder and AJ followed by Bakole.jameswilson wrote: ↑23 Feb 2023, 13:44No because purse bids are due for Hrgovic v Ruiz.joshj909 wrote: ↑23 Feb 2023, 10:55Bakole Vs Hrgovic for the interim IBF?billy nelson wrote: ↑18 Feb 2023, 02:53 martin was going to be announced for March 4th which unfortunately got cancelled, however the fight has been rescheduled and announcement soon
