UPDATE: The date of this purse bid has been changed to November 7th. On October 10th, the IBF ordered heavyweights Agit Kabayel and Martin Bakole to begin negotiations for an IBF final eliminator (and the IBF #1 ranking). Negotiations were to be concluded on or before October 23rd. An agreement could not be made within the time frame allowed, so the IBF has ordered a purse bid for Tuesday, November 5th at 12 noon. Bakole is coming off a big win over Jared Anderson, while Kabayel's last fight was a win over Frank Sanchez. Both Anderson and Sanchez were previously undefeated
