Probably more realistic Eubank moves up to LHW than Yarde going to 168. He's a big lad. Both same height. In which case I'd pick Yarde SD
Yarde is not making 168 in a million years lol And if he some how did Eubank ****s the ghost of Yarde up
Yarde is susceptible to walking into jabs and getting KO'd. Can happen to anyone, yes, but Yarde is probably more at risk. Problem is that Eubank doesn't have a good jab. According to Saunders, he doesn't really have one at all. So Yarde would be less at risk of walking into a big jab and getting KO'd. Therefore it would be harder for Eubank to win. But If Eubank could survive the power shots, which he probably could after taking clean RH's from Groves without getting KO'd, he would automatically win on points being the bigger commercial brand.
If he can make the weight and still remain healthy, which is a big if, Yarde is too big for him. CEJ couldn't handle SMW, let alone big LHWs They've sparred each other before when Yarde was still in the amateurs
Good match up even at LHW if Eubank was to move up. I think Eubank wins this tbh,he’s fit,tough and can do 12 rounds easy and is a more seasoned fighter than Yarde. It would also be good to see Eubank going in against the bigger man instead of him wanting to feast on smaller fighters .
