Agree with earlier comment. If Yarde actually lets his hands go and takes a risk or two he’ll finish it early. The Kovalev stoppage was exhaustion and I think Yarde has overcompensated from the experience. If he’s sorted that he’ll win as realistically Arthur didn’t do a great deal to win it last time. He certainly wasn’t agressive he just threw a few more punches than Yarde’s dreadful output last time.

Arthur had injured his right hand so he didn’t throw it. He basically beat Yarde just jabbing him and his ****** trainer Tunde couldn’t offer any decent advice to him in the corner.

Come to think of it, he got stopped with a jab by Kovalev too

I reckon it all boils down to Yarde and whether he’s done enough roadwork to give him the conference to let his hands go early enough without emptying the tank. If not then I’d agree Arthur stops him. He needs to fix that flaw in his game but realistically his physique isn’t conducive to doing that - big muscles empty the tank quickly eg Joshua, Bruno etc etc. It’s always a gamble whether you can catch the other guy before running out of stream, but that’s a confidence thing.
