During a meeting on Monday evening, 12th, Head of State Félix Tshisekedi encouraged Congolese boxer Martin Bakole to retain his Congolese nationality. The President of the Republic also expressed his wish to see him fight in Congo-Kinshasa..
All that remained was this meeting between Félix Tshisekedi and Martin Bakole to crown the latter’s great return to the country, after the very warm welcome he received from the population last Friday. Congolese boxer Martin Bakole was very satisfied with the visit offered to him by Head of State Félix Tshisekedi. “I was invited by the Head of State, who wanted to congratulate me and prove to the world that I have the unconditional support of the DRC,” said the Congolese boxer.
And he added: “The President of the Republic, as is his custom when he receives me, encouraged me to retain my Congolese nationality. He reiterated his wish to see me fight a great battle here in the country.”
Let us point out that the Congolese boxer thus inflicted the first defeat on Jared Anderson, on the night of Sunday August 4, in Los Angeles, USA. With this victory, he has a total of 22 professional fights, including 21 victories (16 by KO) and one defeat. Martin Bakole is currently ranked world number one by the WBA.
