    How is he not world champion yet?

    Why does he only box twice a year?

    Probably because he hasn't fought for the title yet....
    Yeah I reckon that's why..
    Usually you have to challenge for the belt in order to become world champion. They don't just hand them out..

    He has suffered hand injuries over the last year. I think he had an operation recently

    He is so talented though its a shame he has been so inactive and looking at how Ricky Burns developed from 2013 onwards I reckon Walsh would have beaten him had they boxed.

    Hes inactive somewhat. A lot of the inactivity down to himself as well. 3 times he was scheduled to fight sykes and he pulled out 3 times before they finally got it on.sykes is not the only fight hes pulled out of.
    Besides that hes a good fighter who could win a world title imo.
    Another thing is hes holding the domestic sfw div up somewhat. Hes had the commonwealth about 5yr now and has hardly defended it. British over a yr and defended it once iirc

    Very talented fighter I agree. Would have liked to see him against Ricky Burns.

    Top top fighter with great trainer in Everett. Should have had a shot at world level by now and would have demolished Burns round by round. If injured I hope he gets fit and ready and Google eyes gets him a 6 fig payday he deserves!!
