Tyson Fury vs Francis Ngannou: Pictures<\/h3>\n

A boxer on the undercard of Tyson Fury v Francis Ngannou got more than he bargained for in Saudi Arabia when he was stung by a wasp in the ring before swallowing it.<\/p>\n

Muhammad Ali used to say that he could “float like a butterfly, sting like a bee”, but Martin Bakole was left trying to regurgitate another stinger-wielding pest after his fight with Carlos Takam on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n

Congolese fighter Bakole won the heavyweight undercard contest via technical knockout in the fourth round, but he had to work hard for the victory in more ways than one.<\/p>\n

The 30-year-old had to be fully focused to deal with the brutal attack of his French opponent but was given an extra bout of pain when a fearless wasp flew into the ring and sting him inside his mouth before being swallowed.<\/p>\n

After winning the fight, Bakole didn’t hang around celebrating for long and instead bolted straight to his dressing room where he vomited in an attempt to get rid of the gnarly insect.<\/p>\n

He told iFLTV: “\u201cI can\u2019t believe it, I\u2019m surprised. I\u2019m still coughing until now. It stung me in the ring, then I was surprised it was in my mouth. It started from [my ear], went to my eyes, then I was surprised when I opened my mouth and it went in.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was vomiting in my changing room. I think it\u2019s still here [in his throat], but I think I will be okay. I can feel it, it\u2019s crazy. I think if it continues, I\u2019ll just go to the hospital, because I can\u2019t continue coughing like this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite requiring his unique brand of pest control, Bakole is already plotting a return to the ring and has called out Deontay Wilder as a possible next opponent, even though The Bronze Bomber is expected to go head-to-head with Anthony Joshua.<\/p>\n
