Martin Bakola (21-2, 16 ko) looked like a physical disorder on Saturday night, cheering light prey for the temporary champion of WBO Joseph Parker (36-3, 24 KO) in the second technical knockout in their main support at Kingdom Arena Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. What was I just witnessing about? Bakole looked like he belonged to the ring tonight because he was so poorly conditioned on £ 300+.

It didn’t take much to put Parker beside things, landing his right hand on the head of Bakola, who sent him strongly on the canvas in the second round. The fight was stopped after Bakola returned, which was a wise decision. Parker would immediately knock him down if he was allowed to continue.
