Yarde vs Arthur – R12

Arthur’s corner: “Why are you f***ing sitting there, we told you to get off the ropes!”

Final round and there is very little between these two, this round is going to be absolutely massive!

Better start from Arthur as he heeds his corners advice and starts working from the centre of the ring, landing a nice combo.

But Yarde is so physically strong that he just shoves him back onto the ropes and gets back to work.

Arthur can’t get out of there and with 90 seconds to go Yarde is definitely on top.

You can hear the screams from both corners as the two fighters continue to engage in a gruelling physical battle.

Yarde impressing with more shots to the body but and much, much more activity, even if they aren’t the cleanest shots around.

Arthur still continues to throw and lands a beautiful uppercut that just knocks Yarde’s head back.

Into the final 20 seconds and both continue to throw.

The final bell goes! I have absolutely no idea what way that one is going to go.

Arthur had the first half of the fight and Yarde the second half, but it could go any way.
