Round-by-Round: Anthony Yarde vs. Lyndon Arthur - 5 December 2020

[Old bones Ian]

Carlos DeLeon just texted me to say that was round of the year

I think people were betting Arthur @ 5/1 and more rather than betting on Arthur.
Arthur is longer, very strong and well-schooled, but you just can't see him beating the big beasts @ 175.
Yarde you can.

I'd guess a close fight with Arthur maybe a round or so up before a Yarde stoppage around about the 9th.

Yeah that sums up why I’ve bet on Arthur. It’s value in my opinion and there are a few indicators which you mention that are in his favour.

Same reason many of us banged it on Joe Joyce.

Bag of wank

[Neil Gee]

Hell to score the first two but if anything I'd favour Arthur

[ShadrachSimmo]

There is a rumour Arthur hurt his right hand in the warmup.. he didn’t throw one in the first round.. let’s hope it’s not true

Didn’t throw it in the 2nd either.

[Frostieballs]

Even second round?

[TheLeprechaun]

Yarde is going to have to start throwing punches here

[jameswilson]

Shame his nickname isn’t “my milkshakes bring all the boys to the”

Or went with a Stormzy tribute

Yarde

[Old bones Ian]

Yards being told by his corner that Arther is scared, at no time did they tell Yarde to throw more shots to win the rounds, shocking corner work IMO

[Ruthless-RKO]

Arthur’s jab may win the fight..

Not three a right hand yet.

Great social distancing

I'm just at a loss of what the corner is doing, tell Yarde to pull his finger out and work work.

Yeah but Tunde’s amazing at getting in the shot when the fighters are facing off so credit to him.


Seems to be Arthur’s ahead at the mo. Worth also pointing out a Yarde did almost sod all in the first 4 against Dec Spelman. He’s a notorious slow starter.

Didn’t throw it in the 2nd either.

Or the third. If he has hurt his hand thats fucked. cant go into the biggest fight of your life with a bad right hand... still winning, if he wins one handed... that would be a nice little thing to brag about...

[skanksta]

it's close and dull, but it's
30-27 KA
The Beast is struggling to get inside the King's length.

[TheLeprechaun]

Terrible corner work from Tunde as expected. I could see Yarde losing this wide on the cards with Tunde telling him he's won every round.

[Old bones Ian]

And forgot to put Yardes gumshield in

[Frostieballs]

I’ve not seen a lot of Arthur, but he looks like one of those fighters who can put his heart and soul into doing everything right, Round after Round.... but is always on a knife edge because he doesn’t have the power to end things conclusively.

39-37 KA
It's close so I gave Yarde a round - bit more menacing.

[My T Sharp]

Worst fight I have ever seen

[dr_devious]

Arthur is knicking all the rounds in a snorefest
