Comments Thread For: Beterbiev-Yarde Is A True Puncher vs. Puncher Clash

[thack]

We all know why Beterbiev is favourite But Yarde is a heavy handed live one . Even in a shoot out I expect Beterbiev to come out on top but this doesn't stop me from being really interested in this fight ....Yarde has a reasonable chance to at least hurt him if not finish him ....Bivol v Beterbiev is the really big one but Imagine if it was to be Bivol v Yarde
with Frank v Eddie on the undercard.

Yarde was not able of knocking a fading Kovalev out, I wonder how he will avoid being chewed and spat out by Beterbiev.

On the other hand, if Callum Johnson managed to knock Beterbiev down pretty hard, I also wonder what happens if Yarde catches him with his best shot.

Last part is what makes it exciting, always that what if factor.

Yarde has to go for it. Beterbiev is a puncher with skills. The longer this fight goes the worst it will be for Yarde.

No chance for Yarde. He can't outbox Beterbiev. He can't outpunch him. He has no speed or skill advantage.

If he tries that shoulder-roll nonsense against Artur he's going to get a very painful lesson.

It's an easy night for Artur.

Frank Warren buying mando spots for Yarde over and over. Shameless corrupt boxing.

Nobody gives a rat's ass about this garbage mismatch of a fight

**** Arum for giving us this useless match instead of Beterbiev-Bivol

Absolutely correct! Yarde can only get lucky with a punch and people forget what Beterbiev has done with the likes of Gvozdyk etc. I especially enjoyed seeing him batter Browne after his cheating headbutt. For me Beterbiev has the true heart of a champion

That is the difference in this fight, I have seen Beter take punishment in the ring and push forward. Effective aggressiveness is not just the skills but the mind set. And when Beter gets in the ring he has his mind set on hurting the other guy. Just as you can not teach power, you can not teach certain gifts that fighters possess, and the mindset the killer instinct the try me - give it all you got display of certain fighters is more important then how a guy felt about a woman a collection ?I did not read it close enough anyhow how a fighter acts in the ring is what determines who will prevail.

Spoiler Alert: Yarde will lose.

[Ganondorf]

Yarde isn’t great. I don’t think this will be hard.

July/August that day will come
To much money to leave on the table especially the fighter who unifys
I believe Bivol/Beterbiev will garner much interest

I reckon its the most desired fight now amongst hardcore fans

its above Spence-Crawford because - yeah, that ship sailed, and seems even less likely now Spence is fighting at 154
it's above Tank-Ryan as a fight - maybe not as a spectacle and definitely not for pre-fight hype or money on the table
its above Usyk-Fury because that could be boring as hell and lets face it, when has Fury been exciting except with Wilder? so who forced the excitement?

The only other fights on the horizon that bring great intrigue are Shakur-Tank, Inoue-Fulton and Ennis and Ortiz either against each other or vs Spence or Crawford. I guess Canelo Benavidez if that ever gets made.
