I would love to have a rematch with Nick Cook. Nick Cook didn't get the best of “Boom Boom” on that night. I feel a rematch would be a great thing. We are both good fighters, and we should get it on again. It would be a great 10 or 12 round fight for ESPN for the NABC LT. Heavyweight title. I still currently hold that belt.
Let’s go, Cook, and get it on again!
I want to thank Cook for taking the first fight, and I appreciate the opportunity to have finally fought him. Nick is a class person and fighter, but we can't end this match up on some liver shot!!!
Jeff “Boom Boom” Baker has a record of 14-4 with 7 knockouts. In a heated, hard-punching battle that had the audience cheering wildly throughout, on April 20th at the Star Plaza Theatre in Merrillville, Indiana, Nick Cook (14-1-1 and 8 KO’s) knocked Baker out with a vicious left to the liver in the ninth round.
