Yarde Free Agent

He matches Ben Woke Shalom's signing policy diversity tick list as either a large black man or a female.

 

Interesting and insightful post, thanks.

If Yarde's to be believed, then it sounds like exactly this has happened.

EDIT: Queensberry disagree. What an absolute fustercluck. Whoever is advising Yarde does not have his best interests at heart.

This all seems fairly wild from teak Yarde.

Like that is an outright lie in Yardes post then

 

Boxxer involved again, slippery people plus they are been advised by cyclone so no surprise. Heard there is a court case coming for boxxer on non payments to boxers and cyclone on retaining sponsorship monies.
Birds of a feather !!

 

Looks like Yarde won’t be getting a bumper Saudi payday in his career then. Silly boy.

 

Is this not near-identical to Okolie and Matchroom? Which eventually got settled out of course with some money changing hands...

Maybe we'll find out in 18 months time, some random cricket spot fixer was involved...

 

Yeah. Truly bizarre timing from Yarde.

 

Tunde is a plonker.

They could have made proper generational wealth from the Saudi fights going on now.

Yarde's not good enough and not popular enough to get in without Fwank.

Plus they're deluded if they don't see how great Fwank managed his career. It's similar to Dullian with Matchroom, bang average boxer making millions.

 

I really don't understand how there can be any disagreement whether a fighter has honoured a contract.

It should be black and white and if Yarde has this wrong he could be on the shelf for a while.

Warren doesn't need Yarde but out of principal there is no way he will not contest this if he has a strong legal position.

 

Would like to see the Smith fight. In Simon Jordan podcast he seemed up for it but sounds like he’s done unless there’s an opportunity of a belt.

 

Yeah I've wondered that, I would say if Warren thought he had 1 fight left he probably wouldn't have put him in with Marko Nikolic.

 

Possibly to do with some snide extension that Bricktop may have snuck in, otherwise like you say surely it’s pretty clear either way.

 

How are the legal teams not picking this up though? Didn't the same thing happen with Okolie?

 

Said the same earlier in the thread.

There are really two forms of contract; vague ones which contain words like "reasonable effort" which can then be debated by lawyers, and those with black and white facts in them. The latter are sadly less common. Clearly we don't know either way but given Frank enjoys using a lawyer you could imagine him preferring vague ones and leaning on that opinion.

As @Sonny1 said (I think) it could be a clause inserted around options on another fight. What might trigger a clause like that might not be clear. Reasonable effort to obtain a world title shot, fight against a top 15 contender (at what date, with what body), etc etc.

 

Great post. Thanks.
