Yarde vs Kovalev

Sounds legit.

Damn, he's truly had a crash course in Arum/Hearn style marketing.

"Negotiation Breakdown" when?

 

No way this happens although I very much would like it to.
Tunde interview the other week let us know exactly when we can expect yarde to step up. It won't be this year, that's for sure

 

Well this has raised eyebrows.........probably a hoax to be fair though.

You don't go fishing with tadpoles to jumping in with a great white!!

 

Zzz.

It's obvious and typical of what they do.

1. Get's his name in the mix with the big guns
2. Get's the mandatory
3. Promoter say's "we all want it"
4. Fights a Bulgarian Cab Driver instead
5. Rinse and repeat

 

I'll eat my work socks if this happens this year

 

What a surprise this comes up when Yarde is fighting next week.

 

Kovalev KO win in 2 rounds if this fight ever gets made...

There is about a 0.1% probability of it given Yardes career path so far.

 

This is exactly why Frank gets so much grief. No need to associate Yarde with Kovalev at this moment in time when we all clearly know he is no where near ready to fight him.

 

Kovalev vs Yarde is a PPV fight for me, two warriors slugging it out.

 

If this is serious, someone needs to point out to Frank that the "Bum Carousel" thread is really just a bit of banter....

 

I understand that mate, Frank's pulled off a similar stunt during previous fight weeks with Yarde. He still fails to sell out a phonebox and is now a point of ridicule on social media.

 

The commentators and pundits will mention Kovalev about 1000 times before during and after his fight.

Load of shite, we all know he is facing Kovalev until he is a corpse.

 

Initial thoughts - this fight isn’t happening.
