Round-by-Round: Artur Beterbiev vs. Anthony Yarde - 28 January 2023

[Kilburn]

Those heavy punches that land on the “wrong” side of the face, can be fckers. We’ve seen it lots of times.

[SAPFO]

matchmaker will be getting a rocket for that.

Damn right m. Too risky for this stage. But better find flaws now than later on.

To be fair he was getting wobbled from rights early on .

[Fightnight Scores]

That's a 22/1 upset!

Hello team, I was really up for this card then life got in the way, don’t have my normal fishing rod with me so if anyone can message me one I’d be very appreciative.

Did I miss a big upset?

Gonna double down on my Bert first half bet. If anyone thinks Yarde wins, then how?

Have they showed changies footage of Tunde being unbearable yet?

[handsofstone]

Funnily enough it's the type of fight I liked for Itauma, thought it would be good for his education and it might still be but it's the fights you have before that you learn from, the losing guys need to go, and I don't mean boxers who've lost a handful or so more than they've won, I mean the professional losers who look to go points so they can work next month

[margaret thatcher]

it could've been like buglioni's khomitsky, although karol looked worryingly open and fragile in what was really one of his only tests as a pro

Absolutely. Was just a general point about that type of shot.

This matchup is everything that's wrong with British boxing.

[skanksta]

6 7 vs 5 9 ?!

[keithmoonhangover]

One fighter is throwing punches, the other is not.

[Fightnight Scores]

What the f**k is this!?

[margaret thatcher]

6;7 200 hyped prospect vs 5'9 188 with 7 wins in 100+ fights, interesting and very ambitious matchup

[margaret thatcher]

gotta get in the obligatory lineal mention on fury

[jameswilson]

Maderna got his just rewards given he provided us with a vaccine for coronavirus.

[Fightnight Scores]

Jake Paul would have finished this by now.....

[tony galento]

Not to take anything away from the argentinian but itauma didn’t look right in there to me.

He looks a pretty big light heavy and i’m wondering if boiling down to the weight twice in 2 months has had an effect.

Lots of work to do regardless,i didn’t give the argie a chance.

[margaret thatcher]

could be, but karol had also been can crushing. what does he even look like vs a tough rugged guy like that? maderna had boxed at a good level before and had more than karol was ready for

The U.K. and Russia in particular seem to love their Paid Losers.

Say what you want about American Boxing. We have Journeymen. We have Gatekeepers. We have Trial Horses. Whatever you want to call them.

But we definitely do not have nearly the same abundance of just straight paid losers like that.

These guys exist solely for guys to put W's on their record. Basically those wins are as meaningful as if you knocked out your Aunt Ida.

My aunt ida has fists like anvils and she'd fckin fold me up like a deckchair

[margaret thatcher]

we are by far the biggest on this whole prospect vs 100+ loss thing. i dont think russia does it much, they often start their guys off straight away with more ambitious south americans who have padded winning records but come to fight

the yanks do a lot of mismatches, but fair play, their journeyman go for it way more than ours and hence get ko'd more, but also give more lively accounts of themselves and are more dangerous

[margaret thatcher]

and let's be honest , this fella wouldnt even be 188 if he were in shape, this is such an awkward looking fight

[Kilburn]

Was Woodhall pissed when he watched Fury v Chisora 3? Apparently it was a “great contest”.

[handsofstone]

Darryl Sharp 7-96-1, don't hate the player hate the game

It's bullsh1t man. How can anyone defend these matchups?
