    They'll have a shortlist of names but won't start contacting them until 10 days before the fight. Completely and utterly boring.

    I’ll be impressed if it’s announced today. First time someone has had a 6 week camp against him.

    Hopefully they do.

    I am probably in the minority, but until the back end of 2018, I actually thought they were being sensible with Yarde and had little issue with the campaign.

    The end of 2018 was a shocker, electing to take a non televised in the US Slot on the Fury undercards than fight on a UK card. So only going to be UK people watching and probably a smaller number than if he had featured on any of Warrens other shows.

    Be very interesting who it is as I am losing my patience slightly.

    His side-stepping around the level he's been fighting at is kind of OK considering his lack of AM fights and stuff. But if your backers are going to hype you the way they have him then ultimately you need to prove it. Hopefully they do that with the next guy but I'm not expectant

    I dont think you are in the minority, I think that most of us agree that the sensible approach for yarde is to move him along steadily.
    Its the drivel we are getting thrown down our throats that people object to.
    If yarde had of been promoted as,' 'this kid needs bringing on steadily '
    No one would have an issue.
    Its that they ate trying to promote him as the next best thing, couple that with the no1 wbo ranking and you start to think that we are getting our intelligence insulted
