Anthony Yarde Declined Opportunity to Fight Artur Beterbiev

[jamamb]

its simple idiocy to say he hasnt fought at brit title level yet if your gonna count guys like burton and buglioni at that level

who has burton beaten who averlant wouldnt?

how doesvdrawing with lee markham, scrapping past ricky summers, or being destroyed in 1 by callum johnson suggest that buglionis at all much better then a guy who was level for the ebu?

burton was kod the one time he stepped above area level, buglioni when he stepped to euro was kod by khomitsky (lost to stiglitz) and then got embarrisngly routed by chudinov

its simply burton and buglioni being gritish and more familar that causes this nonsense about them being levels above yrdes opponents

[maley1984]

skejoca drew at euro level vs someone no worse then burton and buglioni. burton on the other hand was knocked out in his 1 fight above area level. buglioni has a draw with banjo markham and was barely better then ricky summers, and then got blown out in 1 by his first good brit title opponent

pure idiocy and ignorance to say yarde hasnt even made it up to brit title level when guys like burton and buglioni had the belt

Idiocy? Wind your neck in ya fuckin clown. He's beaten a 40 year old has been who wasn't that good anyway so that means he's qualified to step past British and Euro level to take on someone like Beterbiev? He's not fought for a British title yet. He's not fought any of the top guys from his own country yet so let him do that then we'll see. It's got fukk all to do with being ignorant or daft. The big Serb was brought over to lose. Let's get him in a good competitive domestic fight or two then we'll see where he is.

For what it's worth, I'd have taken Buglioni to boast his way past a 39 yo unmotivated Sjekloca as well so your theory is utter bollux IMO. Just my opinion though

Spot on totally agree. Now get ready for the copy and paste replies I got lol. X

[jamamb]

ya, so spot on that you have to duck the questions

who has burton beaten who averlant clearly wouldnt?

what happened to burton his one time above area level?

did buglioni draw at ebu level, or was he way out of his depth? tell me about how great he was vs lee markham.


those are two of your recent guys at brit title level

[maley1984]

Why have yarde team offered summers the fight but won't give him proper notice. On more than one occasion

[jamamb]

oh great, add ricky summers to the list of guys yardes scared of

Should be a link to the proper article.

Not saying his scared I said his team offered the fight but with no notice. Surely a fighter like summers needs a camp to fight a world ranked fighter who's above domestic level. And if yarde is above that level why try to make the summers fight.

Who has he fought at British title level? He's fought nobody. Take your tongue out his hoop ffs. Beterbiev would dismantle him. Johnson beats him as well IMO.

[jamamb]

i think skejoca/averlant isnt clearly any worse then burton/buglioni, let alone brit title challengers like summers and richards. none of you can seem to tell me any one a guy like burtons beaten who clearly would beat averlant for example, yet burton was taken as highly credible but averlant a joke

ppl just arent as familar with non british opponents so they think they must be far worse

[Oiky]

He knows he'd get poggered that's why

[handsofstone]

Yarde's team quite rightly turned down the fight, there's rush with him, he'll get better as he's still a novice really but if he were to actually accept the fight, I wouldn't right him off totally, he's got power to just about rival Beterbiev's and he could be a better boxer than Beterbiev

Beterbiev is nothing more than a basic plodder IMO but he carries serious power that Yarde doesn't need to be facing yet, Beterbiev actually gets worse the more I see him, don't rate his fundamentals one bit

[jamesmcdonnell]

he isn't ready for Beterbiev...

For once we agree, it would be suicidal at this stage of his career.

W@rren wont just throw him to the lions in exchange for a decent payday.
W@rren will slow cook him.
Boesel next...

[jamesmcdonnell]

So he should. He's still a novice. I like yarde but hes got to build up his well of experience.

I didn't mention any of these guys. I said he hadn't even fought at British title level yet (which he hasn't) so it makes no sense taking on someone like Beterbiev then you jumped in and started naming names.

[jamamb]

so the previous 2 british champs werent british title level

[Stuarty]

so the previous 2 british champs werent british title level

And did Yarde face any of them? His opponents have been dog shíte mate. Give up rimming him and jump back in to the real world. Let's see him at domestic level first. Sjekloca and Arverlant were brought over for him to look good and neither were that good anyway. Yarde hasn't fought any good domestic or euro level opposition. Doesn't matter if Sjekloca drew with a shopworn Steiglitz. These guys can't prepare you for an assault at world level. Yarde is a work in progress and needs these domestic fights. A fight against a hungry, motivated domestic guy who's there to win is better than facing 5 Sjekloca's! He doesn't get to bypass domestic level because he beat Sjekloca and Arverlant! Now that's fuckin 'idiocy'......

Darisuz Sek from Poland was rumoured opponent.

[TheLeprechaun]

Beterbiev would have battered Yarde. Yarde was keen to fight Buglioni because Buglioni is limited. I doubt we see the same type of youtube call outs that he was doing for Buglioni for Callum Johnson.

Bob Ajisafe in Leeds, on the Warrington card, would be a good character test for Yarde...

[TheGingerBomber]

You could argue Yarde might need a fight before he fights someone at Johnson's level. His last two opponents gave him rounds and something to think about but the ambition a British champ would bring against Yarde should give him a steeper learning curve! He could do with fighting on Sky as well.

Ajisafe is the one they’ve all avoided at domestic level.
They don’t even mention him.
No way Yarde is going anywhere near him.
FW and Team Yarde have built him a profile that far outweighs his boxing record.
No way they risk that against a ‘live’ opponent.
They will target unproven fighters or named fighters without ambition.
Yarde has good wins on paper but the good level euro wins came with ZERO ambition.
Yarde is one of the jewels in the FW crown. The only FW fighter who’s on every SKY commercial.
He will fight for the vacant WBO in 18 months against a 40 year old African.

[jamamb]

easy to look like you have no ambition when a guys simply much better and harder punching. feeling the power for example will do a lot to thrwart an attack even from someone who came to win.

you can act like guys like burton and buglioni wouldve been far more ambitious, but look at the guys whove hurt them. and in bugs case he was largely put into a shell by the vastly superior chud. wouldnt surprise me at all if they became negative vs yarde, thats what a banger/far better fighter can do
