The famous British boxer knocked out his opponent with the first punch in the 10th second of the fight. Video
The fight eventually went the full distance
The famous British light heavyweight Anthony Yarde (25-3, 24 KOs) won a difficult victory over Ralfs Vilkans (17-1, 7 KOs) from Latvia. The 33-year-old Yarde, who once held the WBO Intercontinental title (2017-2019, 2021-2023) and the European champion (2017-2018), won the 10-round fight by a unanimous decision of 98-92.
The beginning of the fight was enchanting. The Latvian did not expect his opponent to be able to attack so effectively with a right straight, which is why the referee had to count the knockdown in the 10th second.
Yarde pierced the opponent's defense with his first shot, sending him to the canvas.
It is worth noting that such a shocking start for the underdog did not affect the course of the fight. Vilkans was able to get back to his feet and even worked as the first number for a while, but he failed to create a sensation.
Yarde demonstrated a huge advantage in punching power, outworking his opponent in power jabs.
A few years ago, Yarde defeated compatriot Lyndon Arthur (19-1, 13 KOs) to win the WBO and British Commonwealth international championship belt.
It should be noted that in March-April 2020, his father and grandmother died of COVID-19 infection during the coronavirus pandemic in the UK, which was a severe blow to his family.
