    Do his shaky whiskers hold up this weekend, or does he get pasted to the canvas??

    The only glassy mandible you'll be talking about Saturday is Yarde's.

    Tbf being KOed by Kovalev isn't a sign of a glassy mandible

    With Kovalev I've called a few fights wrong,gun to head I'd go under 9.5 rounds as both bang hard.
    Now watch this go to points :lol:

    We'll see. But if you are right, one way or another, glass WILL shatter this weekend.

    And, as a result, yet again, it will be proven that glass jaws DO exist in boxing!!!!

    There's a reason why Yarde has been kept away from top contenders. Hell, he doesn't even spar them either!

    Chins matter in boxing.

    Both have massive glass jaws. I'm picking Yarde to win but rooting for Kovalev.

    I think you could be mistaken zak.....
    Yards chin is completely untested.

    Most of the time these Russian fighters look like Superman when fighting in Mother Russia like how Joshua looked like Superman but lost his Super-Powers once he left the UK Planet!!

    My prediction:

    Double Knock Out

    both counted out...


    it's more of what I wish would happen after both make numerous trips to the canvas ending in a Highlite Reel Rare Double Knock Out...

    Being in Russia it's most likely gonna be Kovalev dominating and KO'ing Yarde if you run the averages...

    Yarde should go to the body, everyone knows Thurman and Kov have glass ribs.

    Kovalev will stop him early. Yarde has no defense.

    Kovalev's chin isn't that bad, it certainly isn't glass.

    I think Yarde has a good chance of a <7 round stoppage. If it goes late, means he is getting chipped away. Not to mention I question his own punch resistance, but Kovalev has just had too much turmoil recent years. He will continue to be "upset" by lesser fighters at random times.
