    At 175,…Benavidez doesn’t seem to have the same power.
    Can Yarde pull it off?

    I doubt it. Benavidez has become overrated imo, but I dont think Yarde is the guy to beat him. Bena has lucked out because both Beterbiev and Bivol are senior citizens now.

    Bivol is not yet 35 and hasn't taken much punishment

    Benavidez is 1 of REED's 5-10 Fave's Currently...That Said, REED Doesn't Like Dude @ '75 All That Much...He's Been the Noticeably SMALLER Man in Every Fight, Including Morrell, Who Also Recently Moved Up in Weight...

    The Power CLEARLY Ain't the Same @ Lightheavy...In THAT Way, it's Like Watching 'Fimo Above 'Lightweight...

    REED Can See Bivol Beating Benavidez 8-4ish...A YOUNGER Beterbiev Would've Absolutely WRECKED Benavidez, But the Older Version Probably Gets Outworked by "El Monstruo" in a Fun, Combative Bout...

    Benavidez vs Yarde Will Be Fun & Combative as Well, But Benavidez Should Stop Yarde LATE Or Win Via UD...

    Benavidez's VOLUME & HANDSPEED Are His Biggest Assets @ the Higher Weight...

    I don't think Yarde has the intangibles to get it done at the highest level. He has the tools but I don't think he has the stones.

    By stones you mean courage? O
    if so, seems like a pretty weird statement honestly, since he fought his heart out against kovy and beterbiev

    No, I'm not questioning his heart. I'm not really sure what he's missing to get to the top, but it is something.

    I'd say he has the stones but not the tools. He's tough, but one paced and has faced good titleists, no easy belts

    This is exactly how I see Yarde. He can do some more advanced stuff like the pull counter, but can't do the basic fundamental shit. Still though, he always has a proper go, leaves it all in the ring, and that's all you can ask.

    I'vwe said it before, but Yarde is like that striker that aways does bicycle and scissor kicks yet cant do reliably the boring stuff that is more important

    Fight is this weekend and the card is very solid.


    • David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde; Light heavyweight, for the WBC title
    • Brian Norman Jr. vs Devin Haney; Welterweight, for the WBO title
    • Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes; Lightweight, for the WBO title
    • Jesse Rodriguez vs Fernando Martinez; Super flyweight, for the WBA, WBC and IBF titles

    Yarde the only fighter on the main card with any losses, since Haneys was expunged

    If Haney reads this post rest assured you'll be hearing from his lawyer.

    Da glaze's sources say benavidez is ded at 175lbs!

    David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde is a fight that on paper looks like a Benavidez victory. But, Benavidez I'm told by Boxing minds on the ground in Riyadh is having very serious trouble making the 175 pounds weight limit. And Yarde looks ripped, plus is experienced in big fights. But I have no confidence in Tunde, Yarde's trainer & manager to lead a championship corner in a mayor fight. Yarde can punch, & if Benavidez is weakened, an upset is possible, despite Yarde's inept trainer. This fight literally depends on the rehydration ability of Benavidez.

    This fight is the main event on the Riyadh Season event on DAZN Saturday live from Riyadh featuring 6 grest fights.

    Really looking forward to Bam vs Martinez. Potential fight of the year there imo.

    Rember the British boxer, Michael Gomez? Named himself after Wilfredo Gomez and as a tribute would wear a Mexican sombrero to the ring.

    Did anyone ever tell him??
