HIGHLIGHTS Michael Hunter vs Martin Bakole

Oct 13 2018 York Hall, UK
Won IBO Inter-Continental heavyweight title

"Hunter (15-1, 10 knockouts) landed a big right hand-left hook combination in the 10th and followed up with a series of crunching power shots on an easy and defenseless target. There was no way back for Bakole and referee Phil Edwards stopped the contest, saving the 12-fight novice for future business."

What makes me laugh is Bakole fought the same way when he crushed Jared Anderson. I think the difference is Hunter knew when he needed to engage and disengage whereas Anderson never being in such a brutal fight before only knew how to attack and so kept eating nuclear artillery from Bakole.

This was a good fight both taking shots and giving it right back
Hunter has a granite chin and he knows how to roll with the punches
Excellent finish for Hunter cause Bakile ain’t no easy fight
They should run it back

[treblebbb]

Respect to both, no hugfest. Easy night's work for the referee.

[ikennabenz]

Bankole has improved alot, kudoes to him.

[archenemy]

This is a very different bakole now. Like to see him run it back with hunter.

Now this is a win that aged well! What's Hunter been doing the past few years? Fell off the radar but I see he still only has that one loss to Usyk. He needs to get back in the mix on one of these Saudi cards, these smaller heavyweights are a problem.

[mrmista]

So Bakoli is human after all.
We need more fighters like these two. S/O to both!

Before this fight Bakole's team were calling him Hunter the munter. They didn't say that afterwards

[liamryan]

Its so funny, hunter just wailing away at bakoles body and bakole is just chatting to his corner 😂

[archivey-he]

Whatever happened to Michael Hunter? Good fighter, would like to see a rematch with Usyk.

[matthewsaukuru]

Before Bakole calling our big fights with the big boys he should first avenge his loss with Michael Hunter...

[Truth-Reality.]

Bokale is a true warrior even through injuries he still fought back

[victorl]

The Bakole who fought Hunter is not the Bakole who wrecked Jared Anderson last Saturday. He is a different beast in his current form. If Bakole wants to fight Hunter again, then Hunter should honor him and his team should work in earnest to make the fight.

Woodhall saying 'tremendous stuff there' ?? I'm sure he didn't say that when Dubois hit Usyk that low?

[smoothmisticmike]

Both fighters are among the elites in heavyweight boxing...Hunter pure heart of a champion & Bakole is a monster reminiscent of Big George Forman...would've love to see how this fight would've ended without Bakole injuring his right arm...Rematch is a must...

[juice]

Please don't compare Bakole to Foreman. What he done? Beat 2 untested heavyweight prospects, now all of a sudden he the 'new George Foreman'

[barrelstrength]

Bakole totally different fighter. He'd kill Hunter now. Under 5 rds.

[JordanGomez-jr]

Here from that Anderson fight, Sheesh lol 9:42 Hunter clipped ref 😂

[jekopelogavatu]

I'd love to see him fight Joshua or parker, , would be an intereting match to watch

[arthurwilliams]

I mean all fighters have to learn the trade but but damn this Bakole bares scant resemblance to the version that annihilated Jared this weekend.Just went right through him!
