Good corner work - Yarde was out on his feet

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:16

wtf why was it stopped!!!

What?

Gutted but Yarde belongs at world level. He'd make light work of Buatsi, who I always thought would beat him.

BaZ87 · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:16

Tbf I was surprised the ref didn't stop it after the first knock down. Yarde clearly didn't want to go on. Fantastic effort from him though.

I think he was gone tbh

sigma · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:17

He looked at his corner for AGES

Yeah, they would've seen his eyes but the walk towards the ref didn't look he knew where he was.

Yea, it was almost as if he was asking the corner to throw the towel in.

Psycho Ned · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:18

Think the trainer did the right thing there. Ok it's a bit of a hollow ending but all that would have happened would have been Yarde getting sparked out, live to fight another day.

Who Yarde?

Parky · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:18

He was asking what round it was in the corner, probably switched off for a moment when he went down

I know but will be nice British beat Russian.

The_One · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:18

yarde is world level for sure

Yea straight after getting up from the knockdown, he stepped away from the ref and looked at his corner. It looked like he had enough.

Pigeon_Killer · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:19

No chance Yarde was ahead on the cards.

He quit? He not at the Elite level twice he’s stepped up and twice he’s failed.

Yarde will 100% get a belt once Beterbiev retires (assuming after he fights Bivol)

I think you have to understand the relationship Tunde and Yarde has. He isn't going to let him take unnecessary damage.

Great fight. Beterbiev is a monster but I'm really happy with the effort Yarde put in. He didn't back down.

sigma · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:19

@The_One you don't think Biev was holding back? He didn't do many of his trademark combos. I think he was waiting for Yarde to tire. No doubt he was feeling the tempo either.

The_One · 28 Jan 2023 at 23:19

yarde would knock buatsi into next week
