He was dire against Arthur, and although I did pick Arthur do give him trouble I didn't expect with any confidence for him to pull it off, especially using such a small arsenal of punches.
Financially secure? From his boxing?
Got 4 million for the fight in Russia
Really? Wow that’s more than I thought

4 million purse but he would have kept a big chunk of it

'Eff me, that's fantastic money for a challenger of Yarde's quality :oo

He should be very thankful to W@rren.

I know there were rumours about a £4m purse but how legit is that? There were also rumours it was going to be held at the Emirates Stadium which was likely started by Master Genius Tunde.

Agree 100% that he fluffed the Arthur fight.
I think Kov was ready for the taking.
Yarde isn’t Canelo

Warren has done a fantastic job for Yarde - it’s been a bit shite to watch but if Yarde has banked over a million for his career to date Warren has looked after him very well

He's a very gifted athlete. Met him and that big Ade fella at a boxing club a while back, nice guys.

I just feel he boxes like an imitation Mayweather rather than use his physical gifts to his best advantage. Looks much better to me when he's high-guard and on the front foot, dominating rather than trying to shell up and counter punch like Floyd.

Agreed. Tunde’s fake Mayweather is doing him no favours.

If he doesn’t leave Lions in the Camp he’s an accident waiting to happen - get to proper coach now before it’s too late.

Pre first loss I compared him to a Jason Matthews/Mark Prince level fighter. Too many people seemed on the hype train at the time. Oh no he’s much more skilful and a far higher level. Seems pretty apt now though!
