WBO #1 ranked Light heavyweight Anthony Yarde returns to the ring as part of BOXXER’s fight night on Saturday, October 19th at the Copper Box Arena in London, live on Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland and on Peacock in the USA.
The former two-time world title challenger will provide chief support for the explosive super lightweight contest between fast-rising star Adam Azim and Ohara Davies. Opponent is TBA.
Should of been fighting butasi!
Yes he should have! Yarde – Buatsi on the undercard of AJ – Dubuois would have been awesome; but instead he’s fighting a TBA on the undercard of an O’hara Davies fight two weeks later.
A few weeks later*
canelo vs yarde would be more interesting than his last several fights
let me make sure i am clear. yarde is far more interesting than canelos’ last several opponents..
Yes, I agree, Yarde is very entertaining and always gives everything, though it was clear that he would lose vs KK & Beterbiev. But the way he fought and lost was very entertaining. He doesn’t get a fight vs Canelo, but that would be very entertaining as well.
Yarde has been poorly matched. He goes from ridiculously easy to difficult fights with nothing in between. If he had had a few good testing fight he would be much better placed to win the big ones.
