Did a forum search with no results so hopefully there isn't a thread already.
Maybe some of you americans got to see Yarde on the undercard of the Davis-Walsh last weekend. He fought for his first minor title, Southern Area, fight can be seen here:
A deceptive LHW, no idea how he sqeezes down to 12.5 stone and stand at 6ft with that much much size.
Currently 11-0 (10 KO's)

I like his fighting style, as the commentators say, hes patient, efficient, looks balanced and composed even under fire, GOES TO THE BODY, goes through the gears when he needs and carries power.
It's very very early days, but its such an exciting division, could see a fight between him and say, Joe Smith Jr being very interesting. He's only had 10 amateur fights so not very experienced. I know guys can look good against journeymen but I think he's looking better than even some of the new crop Olympic lads, eg Okolie
Thoughts?
