February 22, 2024 — Joseph Parker vs. Martin Bakole fight highlights from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Joseph Parker understood the assignment.
On Saturday night in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, the perennial title contender made quick work of late-replacement Martin Bakole. Parker scored a second-round TKO victory after landing a titanic overhand right that landed on the top of Bakole’s head.
The huge Congolese heavyweight who weighed in at 315 pounds on Friday stumbled and ultimately went down. Bakole got to his feet, but he looked compromised. He immediately looked to his corner, and his trainer hopped on the apron to stop the fight.
