    Head: Ref & Tunde simultaneously jump in around 4-6 rounds stopping Kovalev landing more free shots on a defenceless Yarde.

    Heart: Yarde starches Kovalev and Tunde grabs the mic and starts telling a baffled Russian audience that if he can change and you can change, then we can all change.

    not saying he's going to dominate the division, but i truly think Yarde will spark Kovalev. Im even going to put a bet on it i the bookies.

    Too young, too sharp and absolutely no miles on the clock. Kovalev is past his best, and has been stopped. Once you've been sparked once, the chin gets old, rapidly.......

    Yeah, it's called a "cash out". Look it up.

    Every fight is a cash out. They fight for money.

    Tyson Fury stepped up and beat Wlad and Kell Brook stepped up and beat Porter. Two recent examples for you.

    Who has he ran from...in reality?

    They tried to get Buglioni when he was British Champ and he didn’t want to know despite being offered big money.

    Hosea Burton has shown he is all talk and not serious about the Sport...left Hearn who was trying to make fights for him against Buatsi and Richards.

    Callum Johnson was never realistically on the table and is now propping up Eddies DAZN cards

    Buatsi is a potential future fight.

    I’ve watched a few of Yarde and Kovalevs fights recently.

    Most of Yardes opposition were blown up super middles that leave themselves wide open after attacking, Kovalev doesn’t do this, his attacks are a lot more calculated and he leaves hardly anything open for you to counter.

    I think after a few feel out rounds krusher will work Yarde out and start teeing off on him, while Yarde starts to realise all that against the ropes mayweather counter rubbish doesn’t work at this level.

    I very much doubt can fight fire with fire with Kovalev and I think he’ll run out of ideas after all his showboating is hopeless at this level

    My money is on them faking an injury after reality kicking in and Yarde gets pulled out

    The only problem with those two examples, is that they're both completely terrible examples.
