This content is protected I know a few will be excited by this. For me it’s a bit meh. Should be a comfortable Yarde win. I’m just excited there’s an abundance of boxing on the way in December.
If this is over 12 rounds then I really fancy Arthur in this bout. Yarde obviously carries decent power but Arthur has the better jab and footwork. If he can keep doubling that fast jab and stepping off, I really think Yarde will struggle to set his feet. I’m excited about it to be honest.
I like this one. I pick Yarde to win but he might be given some issues. Yarde should be fighting world class opposition post Kovalev though, it's those fights you learn from
This is quite a decent fight, will be Yarde' s best test excluding Kovalev. Lyndon is a tall, strong, hungry fighter who will be coming to win and will try to box off the jab and fight at distance which his reach will allow him to do. If he has a good, sharp jab (rather than just a range finder) it will be a good fight. If Yarde is a bit tight at the weight like I suspect he is, or has cut any corners in his training camp as he may well be underestimating his opponent he will be in for a very tough fight if this goes past 7-8 rounds. Yarde looks like he will struggle stamina wise in the later rounds of a fight, so if he doesn't stop Arthur before then there's always a question mark over him when he's in with a live opponent.
Not an amazing fight but a decent enough one. I got Yarde by KO with him looking a little unconvincing at times
Looking fwd to this tbh. I don't think Lyndon is anything special but I do think he has enough to beat yarde. Yarde didn't produce much of note against Kovs jab and Lyndon is just as difficult to navigate as he will be on the back foot, looking to set the right hand up. The only thing that's bugging me is that Lyndon can start slow in the first few rds and if yarde was to catch him big early on it could take him out of his rhythm. Close fight with yarde winning the first few and one or two more just around the mid rds. 7/5 Or 8/4 Lyndon.
These are the type of fights he should've been having prior to Kov so that he was bridging the gap in levels correctly. Rather than going from bin men to world class. Good test
I’m gonna P some people off but Yarde is supposed to be world elite level according to Frank and BT and Adidas so why isn’t he fighting at elite level? 30-1 then another shot at a title and then KO’d again then 40-2 bla bla bla..... If he’s not a world champ now he never will be.....get on with it!!
