    Nice jab KO.
    Kov is absolutely past it and should retire.

    Canelo knows he can beat Kovalev or he would not be picking him. Fighters today do this all the time. Not like Hearns, who was going to fight Spinks had he beaten Hagler.

    Yarde showed well and raised his stock.
    Kovalev showed heart as well. He was badly hurt.

    Good fight

    Why do you think they want Kovalev instead of the 3 other belt holders?

    Yarde fell over mostly from fatigue, he was having a hard time staying up without being punched.

    Agree with posters saying Frank Warren has hurt Yarde with poor match making

    Kovalev definitely showed his age in there and looks way past it.

    He is done at the elite level for me.

    Yarde did better than I expected. His chin isn’t glass

    Great performance by Yarde, showed a good chin, great attitude, didn't disgrace himself at all, pretty incredible considering how many fights he has had and who against

    To be fair that Jab is a hell of a jab.

    I must say, Yarde is a lot better as I expected.

    He might be dangerous for years to come

    What a fight, and what an effort by both fighters. But let's not give any props to that System 9 BS. That got dismantled in the early rounds and it was only when Yarde fought what was in front of him rather than throwing some muscle memory combos, that he had some success. Great effort, and gone up in my estimation. But Krusher was class throughout, and showed heart too....
