Jobi 387 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) Yarde fighting Kovalev this weekend. Proper strange set-up with him. He's not fought anyone with a pulse yet and doesn't spar and to top it off he's going to fight in the Russians back yard. He's been protected for a reason IMO and is being sent to be slaughtered, the timing is right to take Kovalev but Yarde has done nothing to prove he will be that man.

I watched an interview where yarde says his local youth clubs will be scarier than going to Russia......either east London has some scary youth clubs or he has massively underestimated Russia lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Greyman 25,151 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 It’s a tall order but I’m thinking yarde is going to do the Russian myself Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stoney100 1,179 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 It should be a good fight tbf and you have to give him credit for going to Russia......I can’t really say I know enough about either fighter to form a valid opinion tho but it’s an interesting one for sure 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MickC 1,825 Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 (edited) Got to give credit to Yarde travelling over to Russia to fight Kovalev,I hope he pulls it off. Kovalev is 36 now and not seen as the monster he once was since the Ward and Alvarez losses . There is some serious talent in that Light Heavyweight division at the moment .

gnasher16 29,602 Posted August 22, 2019 Report Share Posted August 22, 2019 Id love to see Yarde win this,he,s a local lad and a nice chap....ok his trainers a prick and will possibly hold him back through his career but you have to get behind local lads....betting underdog and not sure he has enough to beat Kovalev if im honest,Anthony is a good solid technician and a clean puncher but has always been too 1 paced for me i can see him being out hustled and beaten on points. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pesky1972 4,926 Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Reminder that Yarde v Kovalev is on BT Sport 2 now (on early cos it’s in Russia). Believe the main event starts around 19.30. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
