    I'm getting this up early, just in case. The ESPN+ broadcast starts at 12:30 US ET, but there could be some undercard action somewhere on some Russian channel, who knows.:lol:

    It's rather the opposite... The Russian 1st channel will show only the two main fights, most probably.

    Most likely: Kovalev 12
    Respectably likely: Yarde <7
    Also next likely: Kovalev <5

    The undercard will be shown after 2hrs on the site of ORT(russian 1st channel), the Kovalev fight will be shown on their public channel, not only in their site.If it will finish soon, they also will shown Papin - Makabu.I can post after couple of hours link here for the undercard.

    Papin vs Makabu seems to be the "fight of the night" here, but Kovalev vs Yarde is pure entertainment as well, as long as it lasts.

    POPCORN CARD! :icon_popcorn:

    Kovalev won't settle into Yarde's slow and deliberate pace. When he steps it up Yarde will freeze, his lack of sparring and solid opponents will leave him ill prepared for a near-prime Kovalevs offensive prowess. Yarde does however have heavy hands so he has a chance at a stoppage, I don't see any way he beats Kovalev over 12 though.

    Kovalev's jab will be key. Kovalev knows how to deal and control opponents. Yarde is a reactive fighter, who has never faced anyone who feints and probes like Kovalev does.

    However Yarde does have really crisp and short shots, might be able to catch Kovalev that way. But I expect Yarde to be constantly out of position due to Kovalevs lead hand.
