Anthony Yarde

[keithmoonhangover]

Yet again his opponent isn't going to be named until the last minute. I wonder why that is? Hmmmmm.

opponent is waiting to see if they're on the weekend shift at Aldi I expect

Yarde is undefeated against TBA

[NazNaci1]

Can to be crushed, incoming.

Yarde vs TBA. TBA should provide a solid test and last about 1, max 2 rounds.

Buatsi at ringside to call him out using some of the fake beef that Shalom insists on.

Yarde's fighting Ralfs Vilcans, yep THE Ralfs Vilcans


Vilcans coming off a 2nd round KO win over Shefat Isufi

[cormack]

Wow

Stern test for AY

[margaret thatcher]

vicans is such a beast they call him ralfs instead of just ralf - he has the power of several men

[cormack]

Vilcans

NO 49 in the Box rec rankings - thats really pathetic of yarde

[margaret thatcher]

ya but he did go the distance, albeit losing 89-100x3, with the great jacob bank at least

This is nearly peak Yarde matchmaking: TTEE ("Johnny, hit the never been stopped klaxon"), recently fought at Super Middle, multiple wins at "Studio 69" in Latvia, fought for "titles" ("they don't give away shots at an IBA belt")

Points off for Yarde being added to the card fairly late in the day, and the guy scoring something of an upset win last time out.

Anyway, body shot stoppage in 5, as per.

[tony1234]

Can't see the point of fighting bums now, he's been found wanting at world level so go for meaningful fights at a lesser lever or give up

[maley1984]

Ding ding Latvians number 1.

He’s not the worst opponent. The ‘Train’ only has one loss to a still unbeaten prospect. Yarde’s career seems “fight lower level fighters not in world class til I get a world ranking then I’ll fight the top dog”

Curious strategy. But I think he’s been well paid so

Great promotion by FW, got the usual suspects in penta continental fights, and then got big money for his title shots

TBF I get it. But would a more prepared Yarde have been more successful? He almost Kod Kovalev remember. With ire experience he could’ve won maybe?

Of course he would be more prepared but it says to me that they never had the confidence in him to do it, straightforward fight with the pentacontinentals and cash out.
The fella has earned a few million.
That would have never happened with him doing the traditional route.

So he was well managed ultimately?

For me the best ever, a multi millionaire, and I think he was never good enough to say he was the best in europe

[margaret thatcher]

the best managed fighter ever?

[Coco]

Was he ever the best in Britain?

Would they risk him against Cameron in a non title fight?

[Coco]

the best managed fighter ever?

Hatton was fantastically managed too

But that was to develop him into a man who could win titles

FW knows his onions
