Barring the 8th round, it was a mismatch.
The fight met expectations.

The Krusher wins by TKO in the 11'th! He landed a strong left jab that put Yarde down on his back. There was no count, the ref waived the fight off immediately. The Russian fans are in a frenzy.

When you’re that tired, a jab can kill you.

Yarde didn't spar prior to this fight. That needs to change ASAP.

Only thing I'd have reservations about what that he took a lot of punishment late on . Very physically tough fight for him

Kov has now scored 3 jab knockouts that I remember, and hurt/dropped others with the jab

Competitive contest thus far. The action is starting to pick up. 2-2 fight.
Kostya Tsyzu in attendance.
Mate, no way Yarde won anything other than 7 or 8. Other than that he was outclassed.

But Kovalev's crappy American trainer wanted to stop the fight after round 8! Why is he picking a trainer like that!?

I was the first on this site to call kovalev the best in the world. I don't know if I was the first to say this, but I'll repeat it, canelo will destroy him.

Fantastic win for Kovalev!!
The 8th was key. Kovalev looked done yet ended the round stronger. That was HOF worthy heart.
Yarde punched himself out in the 8th, but he knew that he was not getting the decision and sold out for the stoppage.
Yarde cannot avoid the over muscled criticism.
Congratulations Krusher!! You would not be denied.

I'm amazed the Russian got the decision. I didn't score it but fairly close fight.
Edit: Meant the other guy.
Why? Scoring in Russia is always fair
I haven't researched it, but that sounds good. I figure most countries aren't always fair.

At least he might get a good payday out of it. Im not seeing him beating a fresher Canelo at all. Still thou good payday.
