I said it here. To rank Bakole ahead of a guy that thoroughly whipped him is obscene. But such are the sanctioning bodies...

There is no excuse for it. I dare anyone to explain that to me?

Hunter win over Bakole was 2018 and Bakole has just had an impressive win over Jared Anderson.
Is this based on A beat B so must be ranked higher? What's the time window on that? Unless they fight again, can Bakole ever be ranked higher?
Beating a hype job in Anderson was not a big feat. Anderson was unfairly hyped. And it hurt him in the long term.Quote:

Boxing as with many things can be a case of what have you done for me lately. And 6 years ago can seem like a lifetime. Was Bakole ranked when Hunter beat him? Sitting out inactive for 2 years after the 2021 iffy Forrest draw did him no favors either. On the plus side, Hunter was the first guy Bakole called out in the post fight interview. No Usyk or Joshua or Fury etc. And Hunter walked right into the ring like they had talked about it ;D. Sounds like Bakole wants the right that L. Unfortunately, there's a snowballs chance in hell that Turki makes the fight. Could be wrong though.
just saw that. but bakole still lost to hunter...Quote:
