London’s light-heavyweight showdown is on the ropes! Promoter Frank Warren and Anthony Yarde are currently in a lopsided position, threatening to derail the highly anticipated clash with Joshua Buatsi. While a 50-50 purse split and a June date are set, Yarde and his team seem hesitant to sign on the dotted line. Moreover, things have escalated as Yarde has drifted away from the Queensbury Promotions.

However, this could serve as a setback for Yarde’s potential fight against Joshua Buatsi. The fight that has been earmarked several times over the past three years will take more time to come to fruition. This time, Yarde doesn’t have any plans to sway away from the finalization of this long-awaited battle, as he stated that once his team figures out the best pathway for him he’ll instantly fall back to organize the Buatsi fight.

Anthony Yarde parts ways with his promoter

Light-heavyweight contender Anthony Yarde has signaled a shift in his professional landscape, announcing the expiration of his previous promotional contracts. This move by Yarde, a measured statement focusing on securing the best deal for his future. At the same time, this could have significant ramifications for the highly anticipated bout between him and domestic rival Joshua Buatsi. Yarde’s message underscores his agency and proactive approach to his career. In the video uploaded on X by Yarde’s manager, Mr. Tunde Ajayi, he stated, “I had to pull over my car for this one. So right now, my previous promotional contracts have expired. My team are doing their job back end to negotiate the best deal for me going forward.”

Free from prior promotional obligations, he expressed an evident desire to expedite negotiations for the eagerly awaited clash.

He further added, “Once that’s all sorted, me and you can start negotiating for the fight. To put on a fight for the fans and ourselves because I know we want to fight each other.” Besides this, even Joshua Buatsi wants to settle the score against Yarde as soon as possible.

Buatsi has signed on the dotted line, but Yarde’s camp remains silent. So, Buatsi stated, “What’s going on? We’ve got a venue. A stadium. We’ve got a date. What’s the delay? What’s happening? I’m out here working. Let’s go, June 15, let’s make it happen!” So, it’s to be seen if Yarde sorts out his personal turmoil, and responds to the challenge given by Buatsi.

As of now, Yarde will probably take some time before he agrees to the claims made by Buatsi. But if this fight gets finalized by next month, the boxing fans will get one of the most anticipated fights in modern-day boxing. What are your thoughts on this? Tell us in the comments section.
