    Yarde blew his load in the previous round and allowed Kovalev to have a great comeback round.

    88-83 Kovalev. Yarde took the round off there. He needs to step on it now, Kovalev is there for the taking.

    Yarde needs to work the body if he does I think he might win,took his foot off the gas in last round.

    That was what you call a "Champions Round"

    Superb stuff from an old tired and worn Kovalev.

    Great return by Kovalev, but it seems he lost his power with his age

    Yarde should have continued with that high guard. Bad idea to revert to his hands down approach.

    Yarde's got to step it up. He needs a knockout to win and Kovalev's still ripe for it

    Yarde needs to attack the body again before going back upstairs
