Anthony Dwayne Duncan Yarde or simply Anthony Yarde is a British professional boxer who was born on August 13, 1991, in Hackney, London, England. He stands at 5 feet 11 inches tall and fights in the light-heavyweight weight class with an orthodox stance. Known by his nickname "The Beast from the East," Yarde has had an impressive career so far, having fought in 26 professional bouts with 23 wins, 3 losses, and 22 of those wins coming by way of knockout.
Yarde was a latecomer to boxing, having only competed in twelve amateur fights before turning pro in May 2015. He started his professional career with a bang, defeating Mitch Mitchell via second-round knockout. From there, he went on a tear, winning 17 consecutive fights, including 16 by stoppage. That impressive streak came to an end on August 24, 2019, when Yarde faced off against Sergey Kovalev for the WBO light-heavyweight title and lost via an 11th round TKO.
One of the highlights of Yarde's career came on December 4, 2021, when he faced off against Lyndon Arthur, winning via a fourth-round knockout. In this fight, Yarde showed great courage and determination, rebounding from his previous loss to Kovalev and putting on a dominating performance against Arthur. During the fight, Yarde landed a series of devastating blows that left Arthur reeling before finally delivering the knockout punch.
Yarde's most recent bout was on January 28, 2023, against Artur Beterbiev for Beterbiev's light-heavyweight WBC, IBF, and WBO titles. Unfortunately for Yarde, he lost the fight via an 8th round TKO. However, despite the loss, Yarde's determination and courage were on full display, as he refused to go down easily and continued to fight until the bitter end.
Throughout his career, Yarde has taken on some tough opponents, including Diego Jair Ramirez, Dec Spelman, Alex Theran, Stefani Koykov, Dariusz Sęk, and Nikola Sjekloća. His record shows that he has suffered two knockout losses and one loss via decision. However, with his impressive knockout power and his never-say-die attitude, Yarde remains a formidable opponent for anyone in the light-heavyweight division.
Despite not having won a world title yet, Yarde has had an impressive career so far, and he is widely regarded as one of the top light-heavyweight boxers in the world. With his devastating power, impressive speed, and relentless aggression, Yarde has the potential to become a world champion in the near future.
Overall, Yarde's career has been characterized by his determination, courage, and relentless pursuit of greatness.
