    Confirmed by Tesco Joe as a final eliminator for Buglioni's British LHW title (who headlines the card vs Callum Johnson).

    Interesting fight and the sort of test that Yarde needs. Burton was well up vs the wise guy when they faced off and I would heavily favour him in a rematch too.

    What do people think?

    Yarde is levels above this already.

    Absolute BEAST.....:pesas:

    Actually reminds me a fair bit of Haye. Also somebody I would like to jump up to fight Bellew, I think TB gets battered here. (As he would against a fit Haye).

    About time he stepped up his opposition, win or lose Yarde's fight with the travelling tornado will give us a good account at where he is at.

    As per Staminakills on the general Yarde already beats Kovalev, Ward, Gvozdyk, Beterbiev etc.

    Quality quality fight, can't afford to miss this. Wonder if this will be on Sky.

    From what I've seen yarde looks a level above burton and buglioni already, unless he's got a glass chin he will beat them with no problems.

    That's a good fight, I like it.

    I personally don't think it will happen in September but early next year.

    Same division another great domestic fight for the British: Frank Buglioni v Callum Johnson.

    Put both on the same card and I'll be happy af.

    Yarde hasn't been past 4 rounds, who knows what his powers like if he has to go in to deep waters.

    Think Burton will certainly push him past 4 rounds. Burton will have a massive height and reach advantage, with speed and foot work which is probably better too.

    Kind of fancy Burton for the upset a little bit if the odds were huge like 6-1, wouldn't be surprised if they were.

    Yarde is a way bigger puncher than buglioni, yes it's still early days for him but I can see yarde catching up with burton and stopping him.

    It's a good fight, I just think a lot of fighters will avoid yarde
