It wouldn't be close at all. Yarde was eating jabs delivered by Hungarian gypies for breakfast, lunch and supper in his last few fights. Imagine what Buatsi is capable of doing to the deluded overrated bum who's been comparing himself to Mayweather and Roy Jones Jr.
Yarde is a bum it's obvious he showing he all this tough guy but really he doesn't want to fight anyone decent. He was offered Callum j, Burton and buatsi and it's all silence from yardes team. FW will come up with some bull**** like it's Eddie hearns fault blah blah when it's clear yarde is ducking
Why not make the offer now? Hearn and Buatsi are the ones talking this up. This statement suggests they don't think Buatsi is ready yet.
Don't think so at all. They made that statement because they already made a big offer for Yarde to fight Johnson and the response was that Yarde already has a fight lined up so I guess they are expecting the same response if they make another offer almost straight away (albeit for a different fighter)
i thought the interviewer lead Buatsi into saying who he would fight and actually said he would fight who his team decided . He had to say he was willing to fight anyone because if he stated he wasn't ready etc he would be accused of being scared etc. etc. The Yarde fight is unlikely to come off , if at all,in the next 18 months and probably only if a worthwhile title was on the line so probably never ! The Yarde camp do need to up the level of opposition without doubt.
This is a fair and balance post. However, the matchroom bumboys on here will continue with their nonsense that Yarde is ducking because their king Eddie has said he’s putting in this “huge offer”. The fact that Buatsi hasnt fought anybody yet (which is fine at this stageand by the way he took a few clean shots in his last fight which caught my attention) they think Eddie is seriously going to put him in with Yarde, who whether you rate him or not is unquestionably a big hitter and massive powerful guy at the weight and Buatsi management are going to ok it probably for a relatively small purse like £40-£60k? Are people really fooled by this charade..tell Eddie to make Buatsi V Buglioni that’s a realistic and cheap fight for him to put on instead of talking mess to the public.
Maybe it's not the end of the world for Yarde to fight Buatsi now instead of letting him have 18 months more development. Buatsi hasn't fought anyone in the pros either, and Yarde is massive for a LH, punches hard and clean and could use that weight advantage to grind out a late KO or decision. I'll make a bold prediction; Buatsi will lose his first significant LH bout and become a much better super middleweight.
That Yarde defence force. You already took an L in this thread so stop while you ahead. You are doing everything possible to convince yourself the fight can't happen. Buatsi saying he wants Yarde? Not good enough. Hearn saying he sees no promotional issues on the matchroom side? Not good enough Hearn saying he will make Yarde an offer? Not good enough. Believe it or not Yarde is not that big of a deal that Hearn and Buatsi need to lie about wanting to fight him for hits. Just accept that an offer could be going to Anthony Yarde and give yourself plenty of time to make up some more excuses or reasons for the fight not to happen.
Tell us, how long did you have to wait around after the Yarde vs Averlant fight before you were picked out by security, so you could be taken backstage to have some time with Yarde? And did you enjoy yourself?
I’ve answered these points you’ve made several times In this thread already. It’s quite clear that you are unable or unwilling to be objective, balanced or use any form of common sense in your posts so it’s pointless really engaging with you on this topic. If you think Yarde is all at fault and that everything Eddie says is 100% accurate and not laced with BS then that’s up to you pal.
This content is protected Lol Frank Warren is a joker. He hasn't even confirmed Yarde's next opponent Yet alone the next few fights. TBC then TBC then TBC So he wants to see Buatsi fight Burton or Johnson first. Why? He has Yarde's next few fights lined up already.
I saw that bull excuse on the scene. Already having a lineup for Yarde while Buatsi has to fight the British murderers row to basically qualify. He could just have stated "we don't want it, go away!" and that would have made them look better imo as they do now.
Johnson fighting for the ibf which yarde turned down. Other 2 r possibilities. Their calling for yarde due to his world ranking and hype surrounding him.
Because Buglioni and moreover Johnson could/would burst the Buatsi bubble? Shouting down Yarde for fighting nobodies when Buatsi is doing the same is laughable. Fair enough if Buatsi was fighting good names left, right and centre - but he aint.
