    Yarde has not impressed in his last fights and does not deserve this fight at all, Benavidez wins one-sidedly by destruction...

    Shame, they were lining up the Callum Smith fight for Benavidez but that must have fallen through.

    Benavidez may be the monster, but he’s the one who’s gonna be looking under his bed every night this time…

    Benavidez relies on walking them down, Yarde is bigger, can punch and selects his punches very well, he’s also experienced and can counter, Benavidez can’t bully him on the inside.

    Fair enough. Yarde has lost to every good fighter he has ever faced and is a multi millionaire, i call him the luckiest boxer on the planet.

    Good match, it will be an entertainment fight, Yarde has shown against Kovalev and Beterbiev that he is tough. Benavidez is the favorite and in my opinion he will win after a good battle on the inside.

    Gotta love Yarde. Kid must have learnt more in his famous losses than hed ever have learnt building a protected padded record. Proper throwback for me, would fight a silverback AND have his moments. Easy to say hes lost all his big fights, but these guys weren't nobodies.

    Yarde will be being gifted his third world title shot, one in his backyard for three of the four belts, despite never having beaten a single world class opponent in his entire career.

    He won a round against a well past prime Kovalev and a few rounds vs Beterbiev and was KO'd/stopped by both. No shame in that but he's arguably never beaten anyone above domestic class without facing any of his best domestic rivals sans Lyndon Arthur who is by far his best win and he's 2-1 vs him

    Never seen anything like it. Can't remember if he's back with Big Frank or not. If so, that's three world title shots Frank has secured for him off the back of beating Lyndon Arthur and a whole host of nobodies, most of them padded record EE featherfists, South American journeymen, and blown up 168 pounders.

    Yarde doesn't deserve anothee big fight because he hasn't done anything at world level in regards to winning.

    But I'll still watch the fight it should be a FOTY candidate.

    Yarde has a similar career to Frank Bruno always losing to his best opponents, I didn`t rate McCall.

    Funniest thing is that both title fights were rather entertaining, yet most of his fights are not.
