Artur Beterbiev vs. Anthony Yarde
“I don’t know much about him,” Beterbiev said to the media about Yarde. “We’ve watched several of his fights. He’s a good fighter, has good experience as a professional and he’s a boxer. He’s dangerous so I have to prepare for this fight like I always do. What motivates me is that first of all I have three belts and I need to defend them - I can’t just give them away. If someone wants these belts they need to fight. I’ll try to be 100 percent ready and we will fight them to see who is better. What motivates me right now is having these belts and needing to defend them - that’s it.”
