    No chance. You have real talents like bivol coming up, imagine if they fought in the future. Lol

    He looks good to me. Great power, good movement, decent variety. An exciting prospect.

    And I have to say his impressive physique is like looking in a mirror.lol.

    leaning towards no on world champion theres 2 much talent.... unless people move up. his only chance would be a weak guy gets a belt. which is always possible but that's a few years away w ith bivol beteriev and kovalev .

    He is ranked 5th in WBO rankings. So if he does get a shot at a world title it will most likely be Kovalev. That would not end well for Yarde.

    Yarde beat Sjeklosa by 4 round KO. Good performance by Yarde. He was controlling fight with his jab and combinations and showed decent hand speed. But he got tagged too much in the 3 round. His chin looked shaky in that 3 round. Doubt he can win a title, someone will crack that chin and he will never recover after that.....He is easy to hit...

    P.S. My opinion on Yarde has changed.This fight showed Yarde's two main vulnerabilities. One he is easy to hit if his opponent is skilled enough. Seklosa was able to do that in 3 round. Others,who will have twice as much skill as Seklosa will clip Yarde like he has never clipped. Second His chin doesn't look good if Seklosa can get his respect with few punches than he is in big trouble in his future fights.
