    He's not been mentioned. The only prospect they're looking at is Dubois

    Does Yarde have a chin?

    I was asking a serious question. I'm not all that familiar with him other than that he fights bums over and over

    We honestly don't know. He fights like he does, but so did Nathan Cleverly. Fish eyes and Cleverly were hanging on about his iron chin non - stop in the build up to the Kov fight. Unfortunately, I fear Yarde might end up the same way.

    It seems so, but he hasn't fought anyone good to really test it.

    It's apparently going to bid...so it will happen probably.

    A good point. Unless something has changed, it should be today, yes. A preliminary hearing.

    If this happens then it's proof positive that Tunde and Frank were only ever protecting Yarde in the hopes of a cash out. Under any other circumstance it'd be utterly irresponsible to allow him, as untested as he is, into the ring with a guy like Kovalev.
