    Well. Couldn’t stick him before. Now I’m an Anthony Yarde fan. What an effort. What kind of corner sends him out for that 11th?

    Great effort from Yarde hats off to him , but you can’t jump up to that level with the experience and level he has been fighting at , Kovalev is a shadow of himself and still way to much for Yarde who never gone past 7 rounds !

    Fair play to Yarde
    But take away the good effort and break it down
    He won a round
    Tundes style didnt work

    Props to Yarde. That was a great effort and he is tough as hell.

    No shame in that, that’s what happens when you go from fighting journeymen to elite level with no in between. Yarde can come again he hung in there for a good few rounds but ultimately got out hustled by the man that had been there and done it

    Are people saying it was great effort? Why because he won a round? The other ten rounds what about them? The 91% of the fight.

    That is cause Tunde is fighting as 3rd party without taking the punches. It'll be interestng how Tunde conducts himself from here on in.

    I'm really struggling to see how losing all but one round in a world title fight is a 'great effort'.

    Yes it was. Yarde had that good 8th round but it was more down to kov been knackered at that point.
    It was a good effort from yarde tho. He needs to bin tunde off now and get himself a real trainer.
