Maybe Yarde's seeing how huge stars Okolie and Buatsi have become since joining Sky/Boxxer and he wants a piece of the action

Apparently Okolie is leaving Boxxer now.

i get the feeling Yarde wants silly money from frank
Yarde crazy hes been getting top pays by avoiding everyone that could expose him and taking advantage of Frank fighters getting top WBO rankings. he either fights cab drivers or champions.

If Yarde is obliged to stay, and gets a Saudi fight, he should be forever grateful to fw

Frank said he’s asking for £5m for the Buatsi fight.

Gonna end up in tears , i just don't know how a boxer can think he's not obgligated to a contract if he signed it , Course we don't know, but Frank certainly has history of crossing the T's and dotting the I's , making sure he's covered . But why oh why would you leave a guy who has a massive foot hold in the middle east with all the BIG MONEY .
only thing that springs to mind is Yarde wants to much money and ends up with no fight , or he's not happy with he opponents , he's offered , no doubt Frank will soon come out with a list of opponents that Yarde has turned down

£5 million for Buatsi

It's a second tier domestic level fight.

Your probably correct , would'nt blame him if he was sat there at home watching everyone else earn the big money , But theres always the things we don't know such like has he been offered fights and refused them has too risky , i'm getting the impresion this king tut tut fella , is' willing to stump up the dollars but ONLY for good fights , that i applaud him for its the saving grace of boxing , , in fact i'd go has far has to say thanks to him the days of fighters getting big money AND AN EASY FIGHT are over ,
Long may King Tut Tut reign , the saving grace of boxing ,, mind you would'nt mind him changing the times a bit , 3 in the mornings getting up is wearing a bit thin last week bed at midnight , up at 3 am , back to bed at 10.30 am , did'nt wake up till 3pm , missed me roast dinner , was'nt happy

Only got himself to blame. Who else is there to have a big fight against?
So stupid.

I genuinely think Yarde doesn't care, it's been the MO from him and Tunde from the beginning, difference is he hasn't got Frank to wangle him another undeserved title shot, he reminds me of Eubank Jr, I'm sure he'll land up with Kalle fighting ageing European blown up super middles on channel 5

That’s his real level.
5m for Buatsi ffs
Yarde went to the Eubank Jr school of delusion/grandiosity of worth.

I think FW is genuinely disappointed, he has built Yarde well got him massive fights and stuck with him after losses.

I've got no interest in his blast-out-some-cans stage before he goes in and gets beaten at top level again due to lacking the experience because he only fights cans in between. I'll tune in for the big fight but Yarde is a big underachiever for me because of the way his career is handled. Lost a fight with Kovalev that i thought was very winnable for getting Kovalev at that stage of his career. Yarde needed 2-3 years of good fight experience behind him but only brought a resume of cans to the table. When your trainer is expressing shock that you are tired in a fight because it's the first time hes ever seen you tired then I have to question your training and everything else. He's achieved a lot in boxing no doubt but he could have achieved much more. Maybe it's best to dwell on the positives and look at it from the point of view that he has a decent bank balance and has his health intact for one more go at it. He's a success story. Only problem is, he sabotages himself from getting the ultimate success. But I'm sure he's living a fine life and I wish him and his team all the best. I am only critical because I can see how he could (and should) have achieved more.
