Promoter Ben Shalom Reveals When Martin Bakole Will Become World Champion

Head of Boxxer promotional company Ben Shalom is confident that Congolese heavyweight Martin Bakole, his client, is on the verge of becoming a world champion.

“Martin Bakole will become a world champion within the next 12 months. He has a clear path to the IBF world title, so people can no longer avoid him.

He’s right behind Daniel Dubois.

This is an exciting time for Martin. He’s one fight away from competing for the IBF world title,” said Shalom.

Previously, it was reported that Agit Kabayel declined a bout against Bakole. Now, the IBF title eliminator is set to feature Zhilei Zhang and Martin Bakole.
