January 28 at OVO Arena In London (England), Russian light-heavy puncher Artur Beterbiev (18-0, 18 KOs) playing for Canada will meet his mandatory challenger Briton Anthony Yard (23-2, 22 KOs). At stake will be Beterbiev’s WBC, IBF and WBO titles.

claimsthat for him this is exactly the same fight as all the previous ones: “No, definitely not. Nothing personal. I just came to do my job. I just have a business deal with him. Am I mad at him? You will see on January 28 (smiles). Message to the Yard? “Anthony, I’m already here!”
Who do you think will win the Beterbiev Yard fight? The former champion, who lost the title to Canelo, named the favorite.
