    Tunde Ajayi: Andre Ward Does not Have Anthony Yarde's Skillset




    Also said Yarde hits harder than Ward, Kovalev gasses after four rounds and they won't have to go through fire to beat Kovalev like Ward did.

    Like it, love it or hate it?

    I can't lie, I like it. Whether it is true or not, dudes are going straight to world class level without having any step up fight. Kind of similar to if Lopez was to fight Lomachenko next before fighting the likes of Commey/Pedraza/Campbell/etc.

    Of course you would have liked to see Yarde in with somewhat of a test going into this title showdown, but this is the path his team chose. The chin better check out, but this is definitely an intriguing fight for multitude of reasons.

                  In terms of pure boxing then possibly but ward was far more well rounded in terms of clinch, elbow, headbutt and low blows whereas all yarde can do is punch

                      Not yet. The purse bid is postponed, and they are negotiating.

                          watch yarde's team try to pull some bull*****. They way they talk it sounds like they truly believe they are the a side against kovalev. I could see the talks falling apart because of that

                              I wouldn’t be surprised if the fight never came about
                              Plus Kovalev and his legal problems still up in the air
                              Watch Kov drop the belt and then Yarde and some greenie fight for it

                                      Yarde more skilled than Ward? Ward is an Olympic gold medalist & Yarde didn't lace up a pair of gloves until he was 19. What is this guy smoking?
