Anthony Yarde

Team Artur Beterbiev (19-0, 19 KOs) led by coach Mark Ramsey wants nothing but a fight for four belts with Dmitry Bivol (21-0, 11 KOs). Two weeks ago Beterbiev stopped Anthony Yarda (23-3, 22 KOs), and as his longtime coach assures, he wants to face only one opponent.

Russ Anber, WBC, WBO and IBF light heavyweight champion cutman Artur Beterbiev, praised fortitude Anthony Yarda during their title fight at the OVO arena in London, which ended in an early defeat of the British challenger in the eighth round.

Callum Smith watched with interest the fight last Saturday between Artur Beterbiev and Anthony Yardom. Beterbiev retained his WBC, IBF and WBO light heavyweight titles by knocking out Yard in the eighth round. Yard was the mandatory challenger for the WBO. Smith, who holds WBC mandatory status, is next in line.

"I really wanted to win," said Anthony Yard about your defeat Artur Beterbiev Saturday in my native London. - The fight was stopped, and I'm like: "No, hell," but Tunde Ajayi (coach - ed.) And my team appreciate me, and they see what I don't see. I'm standing here talking to you, I'm laughing, which means I'm happy."

“Every fight is different. Other preparation. And the fighter is also different,” said the unified WBC, WBO and IBF light heavyweight champion Arthur Beterbiev (19-0, 19 KOs) after an early victory over Anthony Yardom (23-3, 22 KOs) on Saturday in London. - I can't say that I fought very badly. But if I could do it again, I would do it better. But I feel good. To be honest, I prepared for all his blows. That's why I was able to win. We expected these blows."
