Liam Davies vs. Ionut Baluta & Anthony Yarde vs. Stefani Koykov RBR.

Koikov is there to get knocked out early and supposedly put Beterbiev on notice.

 

Round 1 - 10-9 Yarde
Round 2 - 10-9 Yarde

Yarde 20-18

Dominant round for Yarde. I don't think he was hit with anything significant.

 

Koykov: Last fight he had was against a 48-year-old whose record is 26 45 1

 

Round 1 - 10-9 Yarde
Round 2 - 10-9 Yarde
Round 3 - KO Yarde

Well, we know for sure that Yarde can beat a much lesser fighter. I don't think this fight prepared him for anything important.

 

Did what was expected that`s all you can say

 

'... and Anthony Yarde is ready for Artur Beterbiev'

Oh no really, he isn't...

 

Koykov tagged and pushed Yarde back more than I expected.

That's not good against someone like Beterbiev.

 

That was a statement. Something for Beterbiev to think about.

 

The fleet footed romanian slickster will expose another hypejob.

 

Yarde is a good puncher but he is come-forward and he likes to brawl. He cannot box well at all. He is trading on his power

That would be suicide against Beterbiev imo.
