Artur Beterbiev vs Anthony Yarde weigh-in results and fight schedule

Unbeaten unified light-heavyweight world champion Artur Beterbiev (18-0, 18KO) and challenger to his three titles Anthony Yarde (23-2, 22KO) both weighed in today, January 27, at The Drum in Wembley ahead of Saturday night's showdown.

'The Beast from the East' Anthony Yarde has endured a difficult journey in reaching this huge light-heavyweight unification fight, involving a brave defeat against Sergey Kovalev in Russia and a redeeming knockout victory against rival Lyndon Arthur after losing on points in their first fight. Despite this, he faces what may be the toughest battle of his career against this fearsome, who is the only reigning world champion to have knocked every single one of his opponents.
