The fight lasted eight rounds. In the eighth round, Beterbiev knocked down his opponent. Yard managed to get back up, but his cornermen decided not to continue the fight.
Thus, Beterbiev defended the WBC, IBF and WBO light heavyweight championship belts. He has already won the 19th victory in 19 fights. Either way, Arthur won earlier than expected.
For Yard, this loss was the third of his career. He had 23 wins and finished 22 fights ahead of schedule.
