On November 19, in Telford (England), a boxing evening was held by Frank Warren’s promotion company Qeensberry Promotions, in which the mandatory contender for the WBO light heavyweight (up to 79.4 kg) world title British Anthony Yarde (23-2, 22 KOs) held intermediate bout against Bulgarian
Stephanie Koikova (14-2, 12 KOs).
It did not work out competitively: already in the third round, Yard knocked out his opponent. Immediately after that, it was officially announced that on January 28, Anthony will challenge the world title in a home match against the champion from Canada Artur Beterbiev.
In the meantime, we bring to your attention a video of the best moments of the Yard-Koyk battle.
