    Because the fans of these fighters see every win as equal. Just look at Tyson Fury. The guy has fought TWO top-10 opponents in 8 years and his fans think he is the Greatest Ever. Warren just needs money and knows the fans are ******. He knows the fighters get exposure- e.g. when Yarde lost to Kovalev - people suddenly knew who he was. He doesn't care about them losing. He just knows next time he can charge more for tickets.
    That’s ludicrous but very true
    I guess you put it a much better way than I would
    So basically just ripping off his fans who unfortunately they chew it up like nothing

          Yarde is one of those fighters that you wonder if he had a proper amateur career how would he actually would be doing today.

          Chavez Jr was another one that didn't have a real amateur career and then his heart was not into it.

            Am I wrong , isn’t this like two steps backwards ?
            He’s gotta get rid of Tunde , my thinking is he holds him back
            Some Brits can be extra touché about fighters because they naively believe they represent the country and by extension them, rather than just themselves and their interests.

            I'm not sure it's a Tunde thing and more a Warren thing as Dubois is set to do the same thing after going against arguably the most talented heavyweight in this current crop.

              Fish eyes can be the culprit but Yarde seems to me that it’s Tunde trying to get the most out of his fighter

                Lets see if rival promoters can get a big fight on without the Saudis throwing STFU money around. When I saw Buatsi in the crowd I thought they might be announcing it after Yarde had his bout but sadly not.

                  Yarde just came off a KO loss to the biggest puncher and arguably the #1 guy in the division. Give the guy a break. He challenged the previously most feared boxer at light heavyweight in Sergey Kovalev with no high level pro experience. He challenged Beterbiev when nobody gave him a chance and he did as good or better than any of Beterbiev's previous opponents even though he lost. Who cares if he takes an easy touch on his way back? Buatsi fought nothing but easy touches until he fought Azeez and that's still nowhere near the competition Yarde has fought.
                  As far as I can tell, the trolls on here will complain regardless of who Yarde fights.

                    Yarde has fought nothing but stiffs apart from Kovalev and Beterbiev and then he goes back down outside of the top 200ish level opposition.

                    He's not going to improve if he doesn't face real "stiff" competition not stiff bodies, it isn't trolling to point it out.

                    Yarde was a seemingly precocious talent given his lack of amatuer experience and we're yet to see consistency out of him because of the aforementioned yo-yoing opposition...
