    6-3 Kovalev. Kovalev isn't making the best out of these rounds Yarde is throwing.

    Well, Yarde is doing better than expected. That means only one thing. Kovalev is old and past-it.

    Yarde has a decent chin though. Definitely not glass. Just wish he had stamina to match.

    Yeah, you're right.

    I'm already wrong, Yarde has done far better than I predicted, far better regardless of what state Kov in and that is no excuse, Kov is Kov, I knew he was old and word before.

    The biggest surprise with this fight for me is that Yarde has a decent chin on him.

    Kovalev needs to go back to the jab and 1-2, he’s back to spending energy and making the fight riskier than it has to be

    McGirt told him after the 6th round to slow down but he didn’t listen again

    Put your hands up Yarde! Hands up and walk Kovalev down! Take whatever comes and just go all out!

    Yarde is tired and he is working off of muscle memory. This is allowing Kovalev to establish his jab.

    Kovalev is going to make him suffer in the last two rounds.
