Boxing Results: Bakole’s physical condition a factor as Parker wins from the second round ko

Martin Bakole (21-2, 16 kos) resembled a natural chaos on Saturday night, easily ending prey for the Weight of the Weight Champion WBO Joseph Parker (36-3, 24 kos) in a second technical knockout in the main Struggle to support The Bout Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. What I only received? Bakole looked like he belonged to the ring tonight because he was so badly air -conditioned at 300+ pounds.

It didn’t take much for Parker to put an end to issues, landing his right hand on Bakole’s head that sent him hard on the canvas in the second round. The race stopped after the return of Bakole, which was a wise decision. Parker would immediately hit him if he had been allowed to continue.
