Former world bantamweight title challenger Anthony Yarde (21-2, 20 KOs) will have a rematch in London at Copper Box Arena on December 4 against his last year's winner Lyndon Arthur (19-0, 13 KOs).

In December, Arthur defeated Yarde, whose father and grandmother died of COVID-19 in 2020, by split decision. Now Yarde wants to come back with a clear mind and a new outlook.

Recall that Anthony has been criticized for his boundless faith in the skills of his controversial trainer Tunde Ajay, who, however, was not fired after his fight with Arthur and is still working with Yarde. However, James Cook has been added to the team.

In August, Yarde made a successful comeback after the loss - he quickly stopped Alex Therun. Meanwhile, Lyndon Arthur had his first fight of the year in July, defeating Davide Faraci.
