Daniel Dubois will make his next defense against the winner of this fight.
International Boxing Federation (IBF) appointed fight-eliminator to determine the mandatory challenger for the world heavyweight title. According to journalist Michael Benson, the holder of the WBO International championship belt will compete in this fight Martin Bakole (21-1, 16 KOs) and mandatory challenger for the WBC title Agit Kabayel (25-0, 17 KOs).
Let us remind you that on the night of August 4 in Los Angeles, Bakole won an early victory over Jared Anderson, inflicting the American his first defeat in his professional career. Thanks to this success, Martin rose to the top 10 rankings in the heavyweight category according to the authoritative magazine The Ring. Subsequently, the Congolese heavyweight expressed a desire to fight someone from the top 10 of his division, including mentioning Kabayela.
The undefeated German boxer has already had one successful eliminator fight this year – in May against Cuban Frank Sanchez, thanks to this becoming a mandatory contender for the WBC heavyweight title.
Let us remind you that Briton Daniel Dubois continues to hold the IBF heavyweight championship belt. On September 21 in London, he successfully defended his title, knocking out his compatriot, former world champion Anthony Joshua, in the fifth round.
