Comments Thread For: Anthony Yarde vs. Walter Gabriel Sequeira Set, October 20

[Randall Cunning]

That's fairly young in boxing today. But i was saying that to say he shoulda stepped up by now

I dont mind it, its the Wilder way, no 2 boxers are gunna come up the same way. The problem is Warren saying he doesnt need to box certain fighters as hes ranked 1 with the WBO, then serving up trash. With Wilder they were always honest.

matched soft for what reason? Is he going to learn anything particularly new in this fight? probably not
Im starting to suspect his jaw is made out of glass and his camp and Frank Warren knows this.

The Ricky Hatton (Frank Warren) Blueprint, Yarde would be 35-0 before he fights anyone with a pulse.

They aint fooling anyone at least, hes fighting in a leisure centre. Hopefully theyll get a bit of cash to get a spot on the Wilder/Fury undercard, to provide a decent step up.

Let's make Joshua Buats vs Yarde.

He’s not even fought at British level yet.

Even your Michael Jennings and Gary Locketts of the early noughties would fight at British title level. Team Yarde have just abandoned that route completely.

I hope he’s the goods but unless he’s doing all his fighting in the gym how can he possibly be prepared for a tough fight?

I say hope he’s good. At this point only his trainer and himself can possibly know if he’s good. All we can see is that he can punch a bit

[wildman]

This guy sure gets a lot of hype for someone who only fights bums.

Frank Warren reply was why? “Hearn should focus on his own fighters” but he wants his fighter Fury to fight Joshua.

[P4Pdunny]

If he was with matchroom, yarde would gave fought on some massive undercards in stadiums by now. He chose Frank Warren and is fighting in the Brentwood centre in Essex. Poor choice. Say what you like about Eddie Hearn but he gets his fighters noticed and paid.

yup in a nutshell

[P4Pdunny]

Not exactly sure what he's going to learn from this fight and taking fights like these. Padding up records with no real testing opposition is just delaying the obvious as soon as he faces someone who can move and also hit back.
