Joseph Parker took up a hazardous fight when he accepted Martin Bakole as a deceased replacement opponent, but the former heavyweight leaves kept his transient WBO belt with the victory of the second round.
Bakole entered 310 pounds on the scale and apparently he was not in his best condition, with a gigantic question about how much or even if he trained the cube recently, and he was on catching his head with his right hand in the second round.
The bacon corner waved from the fight.
Parker (36-3, 24 KO) also arrived at a career height of 267 pounds, which is almost 20 pounds more heavier than a year ago to fight Zhilei Zhang, but he looked in good condition and although he did not have to do. Negative on his side.
The loan should continue to be granted bacol (21-2, 16 KO) for the introduction of the notification in two days, replacing the owner of the title of IBF Daniel Dubois, who got ailing at the beginning of this week.
Parker could now inflate a up-to-date date from Dubois, but he also means WBC/WBA/WBO title owner of the Oleksandr Uksyk titles.
“Thank you for accepting the challenge and flying here,” said Parker to Bakole after the fight. “Who is next? Can I fight for the title of world champion? If Ultka Street wants a dance partner, I would like to fight for the title of world champion.”
33 -year -old Parker certainly fought for a position, doing everything in his power, with what was given to him in his last three duels – profit due to hazardous Punchers of Deontay Wilder, Zhilei Zhang and Bakole – in particular.
For Bakole, also 33, it should not be a destructive failure or anything. In a sense, acid, so it is, but he took up a fight at all, and if there is one thing that can be said clearly positive about Turks Alalshikh as a promoter, there is no fear that the fighters lose, that we have blessed classic promoters for years. Complex duels lead to losing the fight of one of two good warriors. Bakole will have another opportunity and a chance to reason himself.
