Joseph Parker knocked out latecomer Martin Bakole in an impressive performance, but he might still miss out on a world title fight next.

Bakole had garnered the label of "the boogeyman of the heavyweight division," with his power, size and ability to walk down opponents leading to trouble finding opponents. To Parker's credit, he jumped at the chance to face Bakole after Dubois pulled out of the bout, taking the IBF heavyweight title with him.
