    Comments Thread For: Artur Beterbiev Stops Anthony Yarde in Eighth of Fire-Fight

    By Ron Lewis - Artur Beterbiev took the best shots Anthony Yarde had to offer but still came back with more as he broke down the Londoner's brave challenge in the eighth round at Wembley Arena in London. It was a sensational fight and, at times, it seemed both were trying to knock each other out with a single shot. The gallant Yarde had his moments, but even when he looked hurt, Beterbiev had an answer. Yarde had power, Beterbiev had a bit more power and, more importantly, brutal accuracy.

            His last 2 fights prove otherwise... Artur isn't slowing down... Also, Gvozdyk, Smith Jr and Browne all beat Yarde .... Good kid, but not Belts worthy... Sorry ...

              Bold statement. We'll see how it ages.

                You can get old overnight at 38, plus he’s had leg operations recently, not good signs for a man that age in sport.

                I still think Beterbiev wins. Yarde is too one paced usually, even though he’s athletic and hits hard, he doesn’t vary up his speed enough and becomes predictable, which is why the experience of Kovalev got to him. Should imagine Beterbiev will too because Beterbiev is extremely difficult to fight against when he gets into his rhythm and has a lot of experience.

                Yarde has to make a big impression early I think. He has power and has to let his hands go. I think he has a window of opportunity early before Beterbiev gets control and wears him down.

                It wouldn’t be the biggest shock in the world if Yarde won though. At 38, Beterbiev is only going to decline sooner rather than later and look his age and it’s not like we have never seen him down and hurt. It might not be this fight, but I believe with his age and operations, Beterbiev looks old at some point within his next 3 fights. I know Bivol would make him look the near 40 year old that he is.

                  You all been saying that at 34-35-36-37 as well ... Yet he's still demolishing anything in his path... I had some doubts against Deines, but that prove to be only ring rust and an overly cautious opponent... Artur ain't going anywhere ...
