Arthur Beterbiev (18-0, 18 KOs) will defend the WBC, IBF and WBO light heavyweight championship belts against Anthony Yarda (23-2, 22 KOs) this coming Saturday in London. Yesterday, both boxers took part in an open training session for the media and today held a press conference dedicated to this event.
“Behind good sparring and all the preparations. As always, I will be ready for anything my opponent has to offer, for any tactics and strategies. Now I focus only on the nearest rival, I will start talking about uniting with Bivol only on Sunday," Beterbiev said.
“I don’t care how other fighters looked in fights against him. I know that if I beat him, I will earn great respect. It's about my legacy. Beterbiev has not yet known the bitterness of defeat, and I focus only on myself and my strengths. He is just a man, I am not afraid of him,” said the motivated applicant.
