Joseph Parker defeated Martin Bakole in two rounds, retaining his WBO Interim heavyweight title and improving his record.

Joseph Parker showcased his heavyweight prowess by stopping late-replacement opponent Martin Bakole in just two rounds during the event "The Last Crescendo" in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Originally slated to face Daniel Dubois for the IBF heavyweight title, Parker had to adapt quickly when Dubois withdrew from the fight for undisclosed reasons.

From the opening bell, Parker displayed his class and power, dominating Bakole with precision strikes. In the second round, a devastating right hand from Parker visibly stunned Bakole. Although Bakole attempted to shake it off, another powerful shot sent him crashing to the canvas, prompting the referee to halt the contest. This decisive victory not only retains Parker`s WBO Interim heavyweight belt but also solidifies his standing in the heavyweight division, keeping him in contention for a world title shot.

With this win, Parker improves his professional record to 36 wins, including 24 by knockout, against 3 losses. Meanwhile, Bakole`s record now stands at 21 wins, with 16 by knockout, and 2 losses. The packed venue echoed with the excitement of boxing fans, eager to witness Parker`s impressive performance against a formidable opponent.
