Comments Thread For: Anthony Yarde Drops Sequeira Three Times, TKO Win in Four

Acts like a superstar, still hasn't proven himself at domestic level.

This is still my biggest issue with him, to not even be fighting domestic level opponents at this stage is worrying. He is actually fighting South American cab drivers. Or some Eastern European sheep herder. You know these guys are terrible when the selling point is “They have 10 loses but only being knocked out twice” or they have never been stopped or KD.

Looking forward to Yarde stepping up against a different level of tradesman in the future.

Doesn't make sense, "He's only had 12 amateur fights and is learning on the job, so we're gonna have him crush a bunch of no-hope jobbers." Surely it would make sense for him to learn by taking on different styles, tall, short, rangy, in-fighters, brawlers, boxers, etc? Even someone like Ricky Summers? Tall with decent boxing ability but not a killer. Could give Yarde some rounds and make him have think about what he's doing. At the minute seems he just walks through these bums with no danger, probably picking up more bad habits than actually learning anything of value. Not good for when opponents start fighting back.
