    Round 1. Taylor 10-9 close

    Battle of jabs at the start, Davies walking Taylor down. Good quick jab Taylor. Combination Taylor. Davies looking for a big shot, lands some partially blocked power shots. Taylor had a good start, Davies coming on well towards the end.

    Round 1: 10-9 Davies


    Cautious start to the half with Taylor moving and boxing well, Davies has managed to land a few jabs which I am surprised about but then again with his long arms...

    I thought Taylor won the first half of the round but then he got drawn into a fight with Davies and lost out on activity. Taylor also cut on the nose.

    Davies round.

    Davis needs to set up shots more. His wreckless trying to look for a big shot.

    Davies' technique looks terrible so far.

    OD needs to touch that body, he is doing far too much head hunting. He is already becoming predictable.

    I have Taylor 2 up, I expect Taylor to start fast anyway, OD needs to nick a round soon.

    Taylor is looking good. He'll run away with it if he keeps it up

    Taylor seems to have better coordination than Davies. And technique.
