    A tenner on him to beat Yarde returns £170. That alone and just that nagging doubt makes me take that bet.

    I hope I’m wrong though. I hope Yarde is a beast but his career so far confuses me.

    I wouldn’t mind if they weren’t trying to position him as a mandatory for Kovalev. I just don’t get that. If he did end up there with Kova I can’t really fathom how he wouldn’t get knocked out. Completely by passing British, Commonwealth and European levels and then taking one on the chin by Kovalev? Doesn’t add up
    I picture him waiting for Kov to be 40 before fighting him but somehow gets a vacant WBO title along the way. Hopefully he steps up, I think he should avoid Buatsi though

      Yep. Just look at all the ??? that Brook fought for proof at a time when the division was red hot. I'll always know Frank as the guy that managed Eubank Sr to crap fight after crap fight when Sky had Eubank on a 10 fight deal in the 90s.
