Comments Thread For: Joseph Parker will now fight Martin Bakole following Daniel Dubois withdrawal

[damned1974]

This could be like the Zhang/ Parker fight-except Bakole wont be lazy. Bad fight for Parker imo.

Wow, talk about conflicted. I wanted a conclusive answer between DDD and Parker, but THIS is a fight!

I'm sure if Parker makes it past Bakole, and I favor him to, they'll reschedule the DDD fight?

How long has Bakole been training for his other fight?

[BritJimbo]

Really disappointed about DD, was looking forward to seeing it, but Bakole could be worse. I will still have a busy Sun morning on YT. PS. I think Parker really picks apart Bakole.

Props to both guys for stepping up. Parker fears no smoke.

Parker should get an honorary title just for fighting Wilder (I know he's washed, but still), Zhang and Bakole in back to back to back fights

Either he has the biggest balls in the world, or he really pissed someone off in the boxing world to be getting fed some of the most murderous hitters in the division lol

Parker wants it. That simple.

Parker has to have some of the biggest nuts in the business, he's taking what is essentially all risk, no reward fight.

Against what could be argued the highest risk late replacement opponent particularly on 2 days notice.

The same opponent most people won't even mention let alone be in a position to look him in the eye across the ring.

If Bakole is in shape he has a big chance to reach the Top of the Heavyweight. He fears no one and Parker is also ready for this Challenge. In standard shape I would say he‘s the favourite. But now I say 55:45 for Parker because of his intensive preparation

Bakole saves the day! Bakole and Nelson are the best fighter/trainer double act since Mike Tyson and Cousin Tomato. Nash out - His Most Majestic Majesty
