Beterbiev vs Yarde LIVE! Boxing result, fight stream, TV channel, latest updates and reaction

Beterbiev vs Yarde LIVE!

Artur Beterbiev defended his WBC, IBF and WBO light-heavyweight titles in a thrilling bout with Anthony Yarde.

The British fighter produced a career-best performance for the first seven rounds, causing Beterbiev huge problems and he went into the eighth ahead on two of the judges’ cards. But the Russian showed that trademark power to drop Yarde. He got to his feet, but his corner had seen enough and the fight was waved off. It was the 19th win of Beterbiev’s professional career, and the 19th by stoppage.

Tonight’s undercard in the capital saw Karol Itauma stopped in a huge upset, as he suffered the first defeat of his professional career. Artem Dalakian defended his WBA flyweight title with a points victory over David Jimenez, with Moses Itauma’s professional debut then lasting just 14 seconds as he stopped his opponent in the blink of an eye.
