another UK hypejob

He wasn’t really hyped

his brother is the one that’s being hyped up, he’s making his debut tonight

I didn't take the shot but he didn't show much heart there did he?

I hear what you're saying, but why get up to eat three, four, five more rights? He knew he was beaten.

Never heard of either.

Tbf to Americans who tell us any of these guys that appear on tele are hyped.

I suppose they are. Here he is.

Getting splattered on BT sport and seemingly quitting.

It's a brutal sport really.

Because if you have any aspirations to have a great career, you’re gonna fight guys who would get up and fight back, because that’s what you need to be

I would put an * on anyone with a ****** pro resume being Hyped ... Did he have a great amateur resume ?

No

his brother is more well known and he hasn’t even had a professional fight yet, so that’s how little he was hyped

Fight over, TKO 5 for Maderna Terrible Warren matchmaking, typical. Fought 9 absolute scrubs and then gets jumped up about 5 levels to a world level journeyman and gets splattered

Sounds similar to Yarde's career. He's more ready for a world title now than when he fought Kovalev, but IDK if he's made enough improvement. Kov and Arthur's main weapon was the jab. While Beterbiev is a seek-and-destroy fighter, he CAN box if he needs to. I won't be surprised if there are stretches where Beterbiev is controlling Yarde with the jab.

Darryl Shapr is 7-96.. HOW THE *** DOES THAT HAPPEN???

Maybe so. Plenty of HOFers and future HOFers, however, took losses early in their careers, regrouped, and came back better. I'm thinking about Jack Johnson, Louis, Wlad, Canelo, and Pac among others. Is this kid ever going to reach those levels? Probably not. Is getting one's brain beaten in to show heart worth it? Probably not. Can one learn heart? I think so.
