    Joe can punch, but lacks the fundamentals of a Callum Smith.

    Honestly think he had outgrown the weight.

    Boxing Seen had Yarde up 67-66 before the stoppage and I think they have consistently good and fair scorecards. I didn't keep score, but did feel like Beterbeef was up.

    Just the usual complainers. The first right hand to the jaw is what really did Yarde in anyways.

    There was a bomb to the back of the head in rd 2, it looked like it would fell a moose.

    Spot on. It's amazing he has made it this far. He has developed since Kovalev but his understanding is still remarkably low. It's hard not to admire his courage and will.

    The only people complaining about rabbit punches are those who don't like Beterbiev and are grasping at straws. He won fair and square. Deal with it.

    Nah. I love watching Beterbiev but that doesn't make me blind.

    Rabbit punches were a non-factor here.

    Enough of the baloney about rabbit punches. Beterbiev wore him down and beat the **** out of him.

    A rabbit punch is a rabbit punch. Not that it matters, Beterbiev was breaking yarde down and it was only a matter of time. But Beterbiev does have a history of hitting behind the head. JS

    I'm not saying they're intentional, but he does hit behind the head on occasion. Look at 10 seconds into the video, he hit Joe Smith behind the head. It happens, but lets not act like Beterbiev doesn't hit behind the head, whether it be intentional or not.

    You hate Beterbiev and you're upset that he won......again :lol:

    Let me try and give some context to avoid this becoming a slanging match.

    Ever since the Johnson fight, people have been saying Beterbiev is chinny and all it takes it X, Y or Z shot to put him over and that he is very over rated.
    Well, my counter argument is that Beterbiev has had SIX fights since, some fights against MONSTER punchers (Gvozdyk, Smith Jr and Yarde) and nobody has managed to put him down, or really hurt him.
    Anyone hoping for that to happen is going to be disappointed. He has a solid chin and he'll hurt you more than you hurt him.

    I hope I have contextualised my argument for you.
