I think Yarde is 4th tbh. What’s his best achievement? Going 1-1 with Lyndon Arthur? Losing to Beterbiev? Losing to Kovalev?

He needs to start having some meaningful fights instead of just feasting on these cans and then stepping up and losing.

Yes. There's a reason why Warren has kept yarde away from the other UK fighters, even when they are in-house. Callum Johnson springs immediate to mind

The annoying thing is, I think he’s good enough to beat many of them. I think Tunde is a big problem too, he definitely has influence over his opponents IMO.

At a certain point in time, I thought Johnson was the best UK 175. Both Warren and Hearn signed him then pretty much sidelined him. Warren was visibly disappointed when Arthur beat Yarde and, whilst doing nothing to advance Arthur only focussed on a rematch. Tunde is a problem as Yarde is his meal ticket.

Yarde has the same problem a lot of Warren fighters have of late they fight cans then fight a legit fighter, lose, go back to fighting cans and do it all over again...

They shouldn't be stepping backwards like they do, they should maintain a certain level if they aim to improve but then that would risk exposing their true ability.

I think that problem is existant with many promoters
Fighting names that are over the hill already and then losing the minute they step up
Boxing fans seem to be very gullible to the fact convincing themselves when the know deep down in all reality

With Warren fighters it's quite different, they don't even fight has beens...

Dubois hadn't fought a soul till Joyce then again till Usyk.

Yarde same deal fought no one till Krusher then again till Beterbiev and they're just the most poignant examples.

I get what your saying but Yarde did fight Arthur twice , who went on to fight Bivol afterwards
Maybe not the greatest example lol
