Comments Thread For: Yigit Inspired By Badou Jack, Says Josh Taylor Is WBSS Favorite

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

BADOU Jack, Erik Skoglund and Avni Yildirim all serve as inspiration for Anthony Yigit (21-0-1, 7 KOs) as his campaign in the World Boxing Super Series Super Lightweight tournament gets underway on Saturday. The 27-year-old Swede, who is of Turkish, Finnish and Russian descent, fights the unbeaten Ivan Baranchyk (18-0, 11 KOs) for the vacant IBF 140lb title, in New Orleans, and for a place in the semi-finals alongside WBA champion Kiryl Relikh who outpointed Eduard Troyanovsky earlier in the month to book his berth in the last four.

Hmmm, toss up between Taylor and Prograis for me - I'm almost certain it will be those 2 in the final.
Baranchyk-Yigit will be the closest of the quarter final's to to call, but I think Yigit will take it on points.
