Martin Bakole is on the cusp of a massive fight with Anthony Joshua after a long stretch on the fringes of the glamour division.
Several members of the boxing fraternity wrote off the Congolese puncher after falling to the first defeat of his professional career against Michael Hunter in 2018.
It is an unwritten rule in boxing that what happens in sparring stays in sparring yet Bakole is more than happy to delve into the details of his behind-closed-doors bust-ups.
Although these sparring stories have certainly helped build his name, they haven’t benefitted him when it comes to landing the big fights he so desperately desires.
