Comments Thread For: ?Throwback? Anthony Yarde relishing November shot at David Benavidez in Riyadh

[Goatintheboat]

I wonder what changed.David said he's a Vegas fighter and he didn't want to travel to Saudi. Turki must have made him an offer he couldn't refuse ! If this fight actually happens it should be fire.But I think Yarde is perfect for Benavidez to get a spectacular knockout.

Or the other way around. No one compares to Beterbiev and Yarde had some success. He's been in with a true killer puncher. Benevidez hadn't displayed that power at LHW. Yarde could end up walking through him

[MulaKO]

I expect toe to toe action while it lasts. Heavily favor Benny but Yarde may surprise us. He has a chance.

MulaKO You of course approve of this more than Callum, yeah man?

Definitely do and if it’s the same Yarde who can crawl out of his shell , the one who fought Beterbiev , then he might have a chance of dethroning Benny

[Goatintheboat]

Yarde is just slow and dull and has close to Zero chance against Benavidez. People (specifically the Brits) give him too much credit for the Betervieb fight but in reality he got systematically beat up, and not much of anything else.

Maybe but he's been in with the best and had some moments that probably through inexperience wasn't able to capitalise on. Benevidez has never been in with anyone of that level

Have to say there is a feast of great fights being announced. Just wish they were all on one card

[MulaKO]

Good fight. Looks like Callum Smith ducked David though. Add another one to the list.

Throwing the ducking around so easily
Guess it makes you feel better to throw it out there without being a part of Benny’s team
Maybe it makes you feel like you are a part of the team lmao

[MulaKO]

Yeah man, Yarde should retire immediately and become a brave forum poster like you.

Or yourself for what it matters
At least he’s not an alt , p@ssy

[MulaKO]

Good fight, though I must say I wasn't impressed by Yarde's last performance against Lyndon Arthur. Honestly felt like Arthur gave the fight away. If he had just pushed hard for another one or two rounds instead of laying on the ropes he would have deserved the decision.

Benavidez should wear Yarde down and stop him, but it will be good while it lasts.

To be fair , Bivol had problems against Arthur

[MulaKO]

Yarde always puts up a fight and tries to win. This is one of those guys if they had more of an amateur career and started younger in age he would have been better in his pro career.

One of his major problems is having Tunde as his trainer
Get rid of him and you’ll see a polished turd

LOL. Don't know too much about his trainer.

He’s the one who refuses to watch tape on other fighters etc etc etc
