ANTHONY YARDE IS approaching what he calls 'the biggest fight of his career' on January 28 at the venue where it all began for him as a professional back in 2015.

Anthony Yarde is open to getting all the help he can get ahead of his title shot against Artur Beterbiev. England’s Yarde will face WBO, WBC, IBF 175-pound champion Beterbiev of Russia on Jan. 28 at OVO Arena Wembley in London.

Anthony Yarde isn’t the emotional type, but he fully expects to let his guard down if he gets his hands raised on January 28th. That’s when Yarde will take on WBO, WBC, and IBF 175-pound champion Artur Beterbiev of Russia at OVO Arena

While lauded for his bravery and willingness to go into the lion's den, Anthony Yarde was fully aware that traveling to Russia in 2019 to take on Sergey Kovalev was essentially a suicide mission.

Anthony Yarde says he has no fear going into his world light-heavyweight title shot against Artur Beterbiev in January and says he would rather be facing a dangerous fighter like Beterbiev rather than an easy match for a vacant belt.

Now that he has emerged from his tune-up fight unscathed, Anthony Yarde can fully focus on his second shot at light heavyweight titles. The confident contender from England will challenge an undefeated knockout artist for three 175-pound championships this time around. Artur Beterbiev is beyond dangerous, yet Yarde feels more properly prepared than he did before another Russian champion, Sergey Kovalev, knocked him out in the 11th round of their fight for Kovalev’s WBO light heavyweight title in August 2019 at Traktor Ice Arena in Chelyabinsk, Russia.
