The Anthony Yarde next fight has been officially confirmed by His Excellency Turki Alalshikh as the 30-3 British light-heavyweight contender gets third world title shot against David Benavidez in November.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anthony Yarde Next Fight: Yarde Set For Third World Title Shot vs David Benavidez<\/h2>\n

Although perhaps not a household name in world boxing, Anthony Yarde is certainly a man well known to the British public. Yarde is of course a two-time world title challenger at light-heavyweight, having shared the ring with the likes of Artur Beterbiev and Sergey Kovalev.<\/p>\n

‘The Beast from the East’ has been fairly inactive of late, but did get back to winning ways on the Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn<\/a> undercard back in April with a trilogy victory over rival Lyndon Arthur. Thanks to that win, Yarde is now being granted another world title shot before the end of the year.<\/p>\n

Anthony Yarde’s record now stands at 27-3 with 24 KO’s. Two of his three defeats have come at world level against Artur Beterbiev and Sergey Kovalev, with his only other defeat being one he later avenged twice.<\/p>\n

In regards to the Anthony Yarde next fight, it has been confirmed that the 33-year-old will face the undefeated WBC World Light-Heavyweight Champion David Benavidez in Saudi Arabia this November.<\/p>\n

An exact date is yet to be confirmed, but the bout is set to headline a bumper Riyadh Season card alongside Devin Haney’s next fight<\/a> against WBO World Welterweight Champion Brian Norman Jr.<\/p>\n

Standing in Yarde’s way is one of the best fighters in world boxing. Benavidez is currently 30-0 with 24 knockouts, despite just being 28-years-old. He is a world class fighter and could well be the best 175-pound fighter in the world besides Dmitry Bivol and Arthur Beterbiev.<\/p>\n

Going into the contest, Yarde is understandably a big underdog with the best UK boxing betting sites<\/a>. This comes as no surprise at all given just how good Benavidez is. Anthony Yarde’s next fight is certainly a tough one, but isn’t an impossible task.<\/p>\n
