Saudi Arabia's aspirations to dominate the boxing scene were challenged when heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois fell ill ahead of a highly anticipated fight against Joseph Parker. In a quick response, the organizers secured Martin Bakole as a replacement on short notice. Despite Bakole's lack of preparation time, his impressive record and knockout power make him a formidable opponent. For Parker, the pressure is immense; a defeat could tarnish his aspirations after a series of noteworthy victories, especially considering Bakole's recent success against unbeaten fighters.
While Bakole will obviously be hindered by the fact that he has had such little notice to prepare for Parker, he has been training for a bout against Efe Ajagba.
Bakole presents a serious challenge for Parker in their non-title bout. He hits very hard and has been avoided by most leading heavyweights.
