Sergey Alexandrovich Kovalev vs. Anthony Yarde & Ilunga Makabu vs. Aleksei Papin RBR.

very clear round

4-0 Kovalev

 

Yarde’s chin held up to the tests there

Kovalev dominating and now starting to throw some big shots

40-36

 

3-1 Kov, looking like he’s taking over

 

4-0 Yarde

 

Great cast of fighters there

How would provodnikov vs tzsyu go

 

40-36 Kovalev. Kovalev starting to throw his right on the back of his jab. Yarde falling behind.

 

I think he is doing fairly well there, definitely keeping his own.
But Kovalev is clearly the better boxer.

 

Yarde is feeling the pace, the occasion, the nervous energy is starting to show.

Mouth open, legs are not as steady, the power looks a little less snappy..

I give him another two rounds..

 

Yarde is in the fight
2-2
Kovalev doesn't like the taste of that wicked Right hand of Yarde

 

40-36 Kovalev

 

Round 4
Kovalev 10-9
Kovalev 40-36

Buddy telling Sergey to not be too aggressive.

 

Yarde is eating a lot of jabs and he's slowing down. This is not a good round for him.

 

All things considered Yarde is doing well for someone with so little experience...a natural fighter

 

Good fight like wards insight on kovalev from experience and the discussion about sparring

 

Yarde's gonna get KTFO. He doesn't move his head at all.
