Wasn’t the punch that done him.. it was fatigue.. the more musclebound guys will always struggle in later rounds..
@jose ramirez exactly, that round where he had kovalev in trouble but didn’t finish him was the end of the fight…
@Mad Animal Fitness Anthony Joshua, Frank Bruno, Wladimir Klitschko all were muscular and all had stamina problems.
Ninja he just dont know how to fight, I know plenty of professionals doesn’t mean thier good at what they do, he doesn’t even know how to punch, very awkward looking fighter
Fatigue from taking Kovalevs punches for 11 rounds. His muscles didn’t help, but Sergey beat the hell out of that boy. His jab is fierce.
Anthony Yarde forgot to take him out quick, and decided to convince the fans that he can also out jab taller opponents. What a huge mistake!
Yup them muscle will eat your life line away good try yard get rid of them muscles champ 😎
Thanks for the upload ! What a great fight, Kovalev is a REAL champion !!
a lead left hook will never beat a jab. yarde will learn from this loss hopefully. great work kovalev
Aldo K Tyson wasn’t a light heavyweight like these 2 though was he?
Non cookie cutter light heavyweight
Wow are u retarded? Joe Frazier Tommy Morrison???????
Simon Amotz – They could knock a horse out with their left hand. Anthony Yarde TKO’s everyone. Not saying Yarde has no power, it’s just nowhere near the level they had.
Unless his weight is behind the jab it’ll stop the hook
Wow! Wat a match, wat a fight wat night. Congratulations to the champion
Buddy doing a outstanding job with Kovalev. What Kovalev did after rd 8 was impressive against a young strong and determined fighter.
1766584 kovalev dominated him rounds 1-7 and 9-11 lol
Gio man I love that jab. And he’s boxing very well by setting up his punches. And Buddy seem to have him very motivated, because l believe at one time, he would’ve went down in that 8th rd. I don’t know why all the hate, but he looks dangerous to me. If GBP don’t handicap him, Canelo is in for a war. Kovalev jab and speed way better that GGG’s
Canelo couldn’t knock out or knock down Daniel Jacobs!
Canelo considers himself better than GGG but hasn’t proved it and his fans are not sincere either!
1766584 Young? The man is 28.. I remember when the top boxers were dominating and world champs in their early 20s, not just starting to make a name for themselves when they’re nearly 30.. Shows how far boxing has fallen really when a 28 year old is considered young
KOVALEV got my respect I was totally wrong, big up to his endurance, good fight.
I think his endurance caught us all a bit by surprise, the man was known for not taking training camp seriously and he just outworked a young lion
Yarde looked like he was afraid of kovalev he Bearly threw punches like he does with other boxers he has faced. 🙄🤔
Amor Cito because he would get countered. All the bums he fought didn’t throw back they just stood there, didn’t move their head and didn’t counter. Kovalev is a world champion
It’s ok, probably a casual rooting for the jacked “brotha”.
@D3X | Editor lmao yeah is true well I knw yarde will be a champ later on maybe can beat pascal for d belt he just won from browne
Yarde has terrible defense move your head Jesus; KO by a jab bc he was so tired lose that muscle and work on conditioning
Too bad Andre ward retired I’d like to see a 3rd fight between them again. I think Kovalev won the first match.
No doubt bro
Why did the referee stop the 2nd fight with Andre Ward? There was no counting, nothing. Just stopped the fight. They gave it to Ward.
Won 1st fight and got robbed, then 2nd fight should have been disqualification instead of TKOB = TECHNICAL KNOCK OUT by way of BALLS!!
The first fight was close and could’ve went either way. I personally would’ve liked a draw. Kov checked out mentally before the the second fight and it showed during the fight. It is what it is. I also had the pleasure of attending both fights.
Kovalev doesnt want to see Andre ever again. He got beat soundly… if not the first time then the second fight sealed Kovalev’s legacy of just being an “ok” fighter. Hes not elite.
Huge respect to Yarde massive set up and i think people forget Kovalev was pound for pound #2 before he boxed Andre Ward but Kovalev showed what a class asset he is to world boxing.
He beat ward
He’s showing some improvement in his stamina and athleticism at his age, he’s doing something good with his new coaches
He beat ward in first fight.
@Regie Nicole Totally agree. I’m not sure why people even dispute this ever. And the nut shots in the rematch. Jeez.
36 year old Kovalev more stamina than this 28 year old yarde. That jab from Kovalev ko’ing yards was brilliant,
RenegadeRaida experience beats youth every day of the week… Great fight for Yarde though! He had Kovalev hurt bad early but couldn’t finish the guy! Yarde will definitely learn and get better from this fight…
@Truth Teller Yarde had him hurt in the 8rh round for a minute but was dominated every other minute and round. Yarde got spanked by the way superior fighter.
@gomojo107 Excuses, he was younger. Lions in the….oh
Adrian Lagos Lol. Hurt for a minute?! Kovalev was having flashbacks from when Andre Ward drowned him in deep waters… Kovalev was lucky that Yarde didn’t have the experience to finish him like Andre Ward did… Andre Ward was certainly the far superior fighter against Kovalev…Ward knew to work Kovalev’s body but Yarde wasn’t consistent enough… He’ll be able to beat Kovalev in another year or two…
And yet, ‘fans’ write-off Kovalev all the time. Krusher is definitely not finished yet. Still has some surprises for the division.
“Down by a jab” . Tells u everything aboit the fight , kovaleve and yard.
Sergey is a better boxer than I thought his jabs and accuracy with his punches on point
After his rematch with Alvarez and then this fight, it looks like Kovalev is taking the sport seriously now
Canelo vs Kovalev
make it happen!
canelo said if kov wins this fight than he’ll fight him next..
..i thought someone’s throwing a towel before the end of round 10..
Lmao me too😂🙄😂
Kovalev of 2015/16 destroy a guy like Yard in max 3 round..
way too big a jump for yarde… he went from gear 2 to gear 6 in one go… bad idea
So kovalev gettin better or not?
@Greg Khar no kobalev is about the same but yarde has no experience anywhere near that level yet… crazy jump.
Watching this highlight video was like watching a seminar on how to use the jab. Kovalev put on a boxing clinic!
Yeah he won convincingly – but his flaws were also clearly exposed again by a lesser boxer. He is very very susceptible when someone goes to the body. He was in a world of trouble in the 8th as soon as a couple of quality body shots hit he went to water. Hes not winning a fight against a better boxer with that very obvious weakness.
What I watched was an experienced boxer pick apart and put away good but lesser experienced one. Quality boxing.
This is some Dragonball stuff right here, guys gets pummeled one round and pulls out his final form the next.
