Martin Bakole names the fight he wants most and it is not Anthony Joshua
Martin Bakole is targeting a huge fight with Oleksandr Usyk as he looks to finally prove himself as the world’s best heavyweight.
Bakole has been speculated to face Efe Ajagba in an eliminator for the IBF crown and that could open the door for a showdown with the Ukrainian.
As well as potential fights with Ajagba and Usyk, Bakole has also been linked to a major fight against Anthony Joshua with Africa a possible location for the battle.
Bakole’s incredible form in recent fights has seen him climb rapidly up the rankings and it feels like a big contest is just around the corner for the Congolese fighter.

In 2018, Bakole suffered a serious setback when he was stopped by Michael Hunter in what is so far the only blemish on his record.
Bakole has responded well since that defeat, and he is made a huge impression on several high-profile shows with wins over Carlos Takam and Jared Anderson.
Despite the impressive form, Bakole is still chasing that defining moment, but who would be the ideal opponent for the heavy-handed 33-year-old?
“I would love to fight Oleksandr Usyk for unification,” said Bakole when speaking to Betfred .
“That’s a beautiful fight because I would knock him out, nice and cool. Nobody would stand before me without going down.”
