耶尔德勒姆能在对阿尔瓦雷斯的比赛中坚持多久——或者他能在大逆转中取胜?

阿夫尼·耶尔德勒姆周六有千载难逢的机会。有没有人给他机会对抗卡内洛·阿尔瓦雷斯?

上周最大的问题是关于安德烈·沃德，他是否仍然处于状态，只有37岁(截至今天!)安德鲁·沃德生日快乐!)前冠军和拳击冠军可能会在某个时候回到拳击场上进行真正的较量。

绝大多数人认为沃德会继续退休，87%的人投了反对票，包括我自己。我认为要让沃德归队需要一大笔钱，即使他这些天真的感觉很好，即使他仍然对这个世界充满信心。从封面来评判一本书是愚蠢的，但安德烈仍在拳击界工作，既是ESPN的评论员，也是一些年轻优秀拳手的经理。我的感觉是，他并不是一个挥金如金的人。在经济上，他可能不仅仅是好。不是说他不会被诱惑，但沃德在我看来也不像是个迷。不是那个家伙。他很自负，没错，但我觉得他很骄傲，对自己的职业生涯也很满意。

本周，我们将注意力转移到卡内洛·阿尔瓦雷斯身上，他将在周六对阵阿夫尼·耶尔德勒姆。实际上，我想在某种程度上我们把注意力转向了耶尔德勒姆。

没有人认为阿夫尼·耶尔德勒姆能在周六击败卡内罗·阿尔瓦雷斯。我们就这么叫它吧。耶尔德勒姆在这里是因为他是WBC的强制性挑战者，卡内罗选择现在就和他较量，在去年12月对卡勒姆·史密斯(Callum Smith)的更大考验和今年5月对比利·乔·桑德斯(Billy Joe Saunders)的考验之间。如果卡内罗愿意的话，他完全可以要求被提升为“球队冠军”，这将与历史上“授予”“称号”的两次完美匹配，完全是为了帮助大牌拳手们避免他们不想做的强制性冠军争夺战。或者WBC可以摸索，找到一种方法来忽视耶尔德勒姆已经坚持了两年的声明。

现在的问题是:耶尔德勒姆周六会持续多久?而且，既然你们中的一些人可能够奇怪了，他真的能让你生气吗?

耶尔德勒姆(21-2,12 KO)在2017年三分被克里斯·尤班克(Chris Eubank Jr)拦截，但在2019年的一场更有争议的技术决定败给安东尼·迪雷尔(Anthony direll)时，他的表现确实更好。那也是他最后一场比赛，而且是两年前的事了。新教练乔尔·迪亚兹表示，耶尔德勒姆已经改变了拳手，但话又说回来，他还会说什么呢?

迪亚兹是一个很好的教练。耶尔德勒姆是个不错的战士。但他在击败瑞安·福特(Ryan Ford)和洛伦嘉·莫克(Lolenga Mock)等人方面也不是轻而易举的，这是他最近三次获胜中的两次。(另一个人的战绩是3-31-3。)

他做到一半了吗?他会坚持到底吗?是不是早结束了，就像卡内洛吃洛奇·菲尔丁的胸腔一样?耶尔德勒姆(AVNI YILDIRIM)会震惊世界吗?

Last week’s Big Question was on Andre Ward, and whether or not the still in shape, only 37 years old (as of today! happy birthday to Andre Ward!) former champ and pound-for-pound ruler might come back to the ring for a real fight at some point.

Overwhelmingly, people think Ward is going to stay retired, with 87 percent voting no, including myself. I think it would take a mountain of money to get Ward back, even if he really is feeling great these days, even if he still has all the confidence in the world. Foolish to judge a book by its cover and all, but Andre is still working in boxing, both as a commentator for ESPN and as a manager to some good young fighters, and my feeling is he wasn’t a big spender or anything. Financially, he’s probably more than fine. Not that he can’t be tempted, but Ward just doesn’t seem like a fame junkie or anything to me, either. Not that dude. Has a healthy ego, yeah, but I think he’s proud and just fine with where he left his career.

This week, we turn our attention to Canelo Alvarez, who returns Saturday against Avni Yildirim. Actually, I guess in a way we’re turning our attention more to Yildirim.

Nobody thinks Avni Yildirim can beat Canelo Alvarez on Saturday. Let’s call it what it is. Yildirim is here because he is the WBC’s mandatory challenger and Canelo is choosing to fight him right now, between bigger tests of Callum Smith last December, and Billy Joe Saunders coming in May. If Canelo wanted, he could absolutely have just asked to be elevated to “Franchise Champion,” which would perfectly match the other two (2) times in history that “designation” has been “awarded,” entirely to help big name fighters avoid having to do mandatory title fights they didn’t want to do. Or the WBC could have fumbled about and found a way to ignore the claim Yildirim has held for two years already.

Here’s the question: how long does Yildirim last on Saturday? And, since some of you are probably weird enough, can he actually pull this upset?

Yildirim (21-2, 12 KO) was stopped in three and just totally blitzed by Chris Eubank Jr back in 2017, but did perform better in a more controversial technical decision loss to Anthony Dirrell in 2019. That was also his last fight, and it was two years ago. New trainer Joel Diaz says Yildirim is a changed fighter, but then again, what else is he going to say?

Diaz is a good trainer. Yildirim is not a bad fighter. But he’s also a guy who didn’t have the easiest time beating the likes of Ryan Ford and Lolenga Mock, and those are two of his last three wins. (The other was a guy who came in with a record of 3-31-3.)

Does he make the halfway point? Does he go the distance? Is it over early, like when Canelo feasted on Rocky Fielding’s rib cage? CAN AVNI YILDIRIM SHOCK THE WORLD? Your call!
