Boxing

[Finnegan]

You look at them both their body language etc you wouldn't think Yarde was the guy losing like. I mean there definitely is a possibility of Kovalev getting tired. 

[Manwell Pablo]

I’m getting the impression they’re literally here for a late knock out 

[Izzy]

Still fancy Yarde in this

[Tinman]

Come on

[Izzy]

G'WON MY SON!

[Finnegan]

Brilliant Yarde but he needs a bit of experience now because he almost gassed himself. 

 

He's got a few rounds to play with him, don't want to kill yourself pushing. 

[Manwell Pablo]

Just now, Tinman said:

Come on

Think he’s missed his window there.

 

Still at least the pricks who got him over there for an easy home  coming see reality now

[Manwell Pablo]

Don’t listen to kovalevs trainer that’s purely mind games

[Finnegan]

Yarde is ****ed.

Took that round off completely.

 

This or 11 is when he needs to find it again.

[LinekersLugs]

He has let this slip , needed to gamble 

[Manwell Pablo]

This is done

Like I said, experience, when he had his window he just gassed himself trying too hard to finish him off. He'd been pretty composed til that point and seemed to completely wind himself.

To be fair he did the right thing he had him hurt and needed to go for the finish 

[Manwell Pablo]

Well, that went exactly how I thought it  would and nothing like I hoped it would  

 

ffs

Completely. Hopefully make him.

 

problem is and I’m about to butcher the spelling of all their names, Bivol, Biterbiev and Gvodynsk, honestly think he’s a world level fighter Yarde but I don’t see how he can win a world title presently.

Did you watch Mannys card on box nation earlier. Just watching it on catch up.

 

What the fck is going on here. 

 

Edit: so on top of the initial wtf I’ve watched two of the four fights and I’m yet to watch a full minute of boxing (in the two fights combined)

Found it bizarre it took yarde’s corner 4 rounds to start giving him advice.

I think kovalev will ko him myself but such a hard fight to call and that’s what makes it so interesting. We will learn a lot about Yarde tonight.

You called it mate. I could see the KO being late if it came (which it was) but thought more likely Kovalev would box his way to a UD, though of course he came so close to being stopped himself.

 

I was impressed with both men. Yarde for the self belief and heart he showed, despite no experience at world level. And Kovalev for the way he was able to compose himself after nearly being stopped, listen to Buddy McGirt and box out the 9th round. Then in the 10th, he went back to the Kovalev that we used to see 4 or 5 years ago.

 

Think one thing I did get right was Kovalev's jab and he pretty much scored the KO with it, though Yarde was obviously exhausted.

 

Great performance from both men and Yarde's gamble may not have paid off in the way he'd hoped, but he's bought himself a massive amount of experience at elite level and showed his heart is world-class in one go.

Just heard about this. If it was in the Philippines, maybe they were going all out trying to impress Manny, what with his reputation for having an all-action style!!

[Dr The Singh]

Yarde looked spent too early, if he had the fitness, he would have won

He was spent in round 9 as he spent the entire final minute of round 8 using Kovalevs head as a punching bag.
