Martin Bakole Has No Doubt Who Wins Daniel Dubois vs Parker: “I Know His Weakness From Sparring
Martin Bakole will be a keen observer when Daniel Dubois takes on Joseph Parker next month.
Parker and Dubois are two of the form men in the banner division. Dubois is the current IBF champion having been elevated after his knockout win over Fillip Hrgovic last June. That came just months after he also stopped the huge American Jarrell Miller in December 2023.
Most recently, he knocked out Anthony Joshua in destructive fashion in September to retain his belt, and now he faces former WBO champion Parker on February 22.

Parker’s last two outings have been impressive points wins against big punchers – first, he beat Deontay Wilder in late 2023, then Zhilei Zhang in March last year.
The pair square off on a huge bill that is headlined by Artur Beterbiev‘s undisputed light height rematch with Dmitry Bivol.
One fighter who would love to face the winner of Dubois versus Parker is Bakole, the man who calls himself the most avoided heavyweight on the planet.
Speaking to talkSPORT Boxing, he was asked who he thinks will win.
“I think Joseph Parker. Daniel Dubois he can box, he did well against Joshua, he’s the champion, much respect to him, but Joseph Parker his level is above, his boxing brain, his movement. I think he will give him a hard time.”
He then backed himself to beat whoever comes out on top.
“I have sparred both of them and I know their weakness and I know how to knock them out.”
Bakole stopped Carlos Takam and highly touted American Jarod Anderson in his last two fights. Next up is a contest with Efe Ajagba for the right to become the mandatory challenger for the IBF belt.
