Martin Bakole, one of the top heavyweight boxers, has made a bold promise. He says he will knock out Anthony Joshua in four or five rounds if they ever meet in the ring. 

Bakole, who recently became more popular after beating American boxer Jared Anderson in just five rounds, is now looking for bigger fights.

Anthony Joshua is trying to become a world champion for the third time. After losing his titles to Oleksandr Usyk and failing to win them back in the rematch, Joshua has been on a good streak. He has teamed up with coach Ben Davison and won his last two fights by stopping Otto Wallin and Francis Ngannou.

Joshua’s next fight is against Daniel Dubois on September 21. If he wins, he could face the winner of the Usyk and Tyson Fury rematch. But Bakole wants a shot at Joshua too and even suggested they fight in Africa, like the famous "Rumble in the Jungle" between Muhammad Ali and George Foreman.

Bakole believes he can knock Joshua out, just like he did with other top fighters in the gym. He said, “Anthony Joshua – knockout, round four or five… This year I’m coming to knock them out. Stop them or punish them.”

While Joshua is focused on his upcoming fight with Dubois, Bakole might get a big fight of his own. There is interest in matching him with another powerful fighter, Zhilei Zhang, possibly in Africa or China.
