    Adding that to the list of horrible fights I’ve witnessed along with Shakur vs De Los Santos & Teo vs Ortiz.

    "We need to set the record straight."

    Yea, um, there is no record to set straight. You are literally not rivals.

    I actually had to switch off the commentary. That was a whole new level of bias.

    Does Arthur have dodgy photos of all the commentators or something ?

    Terrible terrible commentary. Even worse than the fight - which was garbage.

    I like you man, but it was closer to a Yarde shutout than a close fight. Arthur won two rounds and they were close, another 2 were near even. The rest Yarde won pretty soundly.

    I actually think Arthur was better than I've seen him before. Yes he lost, but Yarde has definitely got worse. Too much time wasting, this is the biggest fight he'll be part of. He won't be in a main event as big as this and his and his teams ego won't let him be not be a main event fighter or paid as a main event fighter.

    Eubank is weight drained and will be very weak in middle rounds I think benn is going to go right through him this is a GWB Saddam Hussein situation but in a boxing ring

    They seemed to pull it back over the last few rounds and acknowledged that it could be Yarde winning. Arthur work was cleaner for sure but he was being outfought through most of the rounds.

    I have a prediction that the main event will exceed expectations. So much emotion involved that they will both take risks.

    I just think we differed a bit on the early rounds I did like Arthur's jab in the 1st half of the fight but once Yarde closed distance and trapped Arthur on the ropes he won like 4 or 5 rounds in a row.

    I did give Arthur the last round though I thought he landed some eye catching shots off the ropes.

    They will most certainly throw Yarde in there with Bivol, if the timing is convenient.

    Yarde has had one of the weirdest careers. Nothing but record padding, and then two absolute killers in Kovalev and Beterbiev.
    Well, and the dreadful Arthur trilogy. Two Russian killers and one mediocre domestic rival.

    Im concerned that Jr has had to loose to much weight. I think he's going to be weak and lacking energy tonight. Still think he cracks Benn's egg though
