Biggest challenge? Easiest challenge. He's way too quick for Kovalev. It's a joke. He's not talking about fighting the real light heavy champions. It's hilarious
8/24 ESPN+: Sergey Kovalev vs Anthony Yarde (WBO Light Heavyweight Title)
- Thread starter patscorpio
- Start date
Can Yarde do what Spence did to Brook? We'll see...imagining kovalev slumped all in the bushes by yarde before thousands of russian fans...who are just coming off watching makabu sending comrade papin to the bushes in a war
..i really hope this card plays out like that..espn needs to get on the board this year with a FOTY candidate...they dont have any IMO
Make good fights? Andrade, Charlo, Callum Smith are BEGGING Canelo for fights. Lol.Y’all GGG Stans hate is
Hate the only fighter who trying to make good fights happen brehs

Not sure if it’s a better fight but Kovalev is the hardest fight for him out if those. Maybe Smith can have an argument cause he’s big af for a 168er and in his prime but that’s it. Kovalev is likely still the hardest opponent. Weight class mattersNelo vs Kov is still the better fight
Can somebody tell me what Canelo would have for Kovalev if the latter beats Yarde convincingly ? I don't see it honestly. Yarde is obviously not on Nelo's level but he's also a good body puncher and has a good sense for countering/timing while being more powerful. Like we know Kovalev is past his prime and got KO/KD several times in his last fights but we saw him box Alvarez easily for 12 rounds so he still got it and I can see him box Nelo for 12 too. If he beats Yarde, what can Canelo bring that would make him a favorite ? Or am I overrating Yarde maybe ?
We have a fight...war Yarde!!!
Uh........huh
