good card, bit disapointed in the 3 losers those last 3 fights. but still, if your significantly worse than someone its hard to make up for that... i just thought they would do better.
benivedez vs a russian is a must. dont mind which one, both are interesting stylistic matchups.

Yarde got pasted there, all one way traffic. He was brave but out of his depth.

Wrong tactics from yarde I thought, maybe he was never gonna win it, but he could’ve given himself a better chance, he was throwing arm punches first 4 rounds, too concerned about pacing himself
What a monster DB is

Once again proof that muscles don’t win fights, Benavidez flabby and no muscle but relentless.
Muscular physiques are more suitable for MMA or Wrestling than they are for Boxing. Lean muscle is what you want for Boxing. Allows you move better, punch snappier, and just generally be quicker.
Speed is crucial in Boxing. The faster punch is often better than the harder punch.

Yarde would have been unrecognisable tomorrow if he’d shipped another 5 rounds of that.
He’s just not at this level, anywhere near.
Maybe he never was?
Light heavy is very interesting all of a sudden?

If he had slugged it out I think he would've been stopped sooner, but it would've been more fun.

Sad to see but Anthony just got bludgeoned over the last 3 rounds.
Benavidez just too fast, too good and did not look like he gave fck.

Really good stoppage for me. Yarde was given a chance to turn it around and would've been dropped heavily soon after.

That was a pay-day type of fight.
You could tell from Yarde's body language he knew what was waiting for him.
His corner knew it too. Had no real answers.

Ref got that just about right tbf, Yarde was getting the brakes beat off him, he looked sharp early Yarde, relaxed and confident but he didn't implement a game plan after the feeling out rounds and Benavidez upped the pace every round, applied more pressure and kept trapping Yarde on the ropes and unloading away, quick hands as ever, just kept pouring out the punches, Yarde tried to duke it out but his nose or whatever it was was causing him serious problems, 7th round Benavidez finally knocks him down, clubbed him with rights in the corner, got 2 points off for hitting Yarde when he was down, looked a bit harsh tbh, Yarde didn't look all te way down but no matter Benavidez kept up the pressure, a left hook rocked Yarde and it was stopped

That extra bit of recovery Yarde had for the illegal shot made the stoppage an easier call, I think. He tried to fight back initially, but was in survival mode to hear the bell and regroup when it ended.

That was all kinda weird. It seemed like Yarde dropped to the floor and that could've been the time for Tunde to pull him out, but he didn't... But then Benavidez hit him when he was down and Yarde protested. Did Yarde actually get a count for the KD there, or did the ref just go straight to taking the point?

Honestly it's exactly the kinda thing I expected. Jai waiting around thinking Zurdo was ever gonna try to fight him instead of making his move to Heavyweight was just silly.

Watching these replays, some of Ben's angles were reminiscent of Calzaghe. Defying the textbook to great effect.

Who needs a wife. Divorce her. Me and you can go. If we happen to hit it off, it won’t count because it’s international. As in, it’s not gay because we are in different countries.

Yarde should consider retirement if he doesn't want to change trainers.

I think regardless of trainers it’s long rest, tune up, buatsi, retire. That’s the only thing that makes sense to me.
