Smith for me by ko. Although I wouldn't be suprised if this was the one where AY tied his experience together and got a pts Win. Safe pick...Smith by KO.
Smith is favourite here. Although he is incredibly orthodox. Yarde isn’t active enough in his offence to get the better of this. And Smith will have an effective enough style to put more damage on him round by round than he receives. Smith wins most of the rounds and is capable of getting a KO win here.
It goes the exact same way as the Beterbiev Smith fight only Smith would have a bit more success and maybe a round or 2 up on the cards.
Some insane voting going on there based largely on Yarde winning a rematch against a man that's half mole rat, Smith would break Yarde eventually.
I'd back Smith to stop Yarde. Much better fundamentals and I'd reckon that Yarde would start well but tire by the mid-late rounds and be stopped in the championship rounds.
Smith all day. Yardes a natural athlete and has hell of a lot of heart but he’s too muscular and his ring IQ is nonexistent just listened to the Tunde Ajay episode on George Groves boxing club and have to say he came across well
