    Femi is legit as he is on the juice.....

    CONor benn, I think he's next

    Anthony Yarde...still a few question marks before we can speculate if he is a hype job or not

    A perfect example of how Josh Taylor studied O'Hara Davis and shortened up his punches on the inside (while O'Hara throws)
    I believe O'Hara was to blame for the defeat, he didn't have any other B plan, and the definition of stupid is doing the same thing over and over again.
    He had the power advantage, and also his footwork was poor that fight, and he threw too many uppercuts that left him open and tired him out by the midrounds.

    I'd like to see the pair fight again it was a great battle and although O'Hara lost he did have some good moments and hurt Taylor on a few occasions.

    It's certainly what he needed because he talked alot of smack, and it did him no favours. He should watch fighters like Calzaghe and learn how he won fights - he made adjustments, he should also work on his straight punches and his jab and not leave himself too exposed doing a poor Mayweather impression.

    Taylor simply had better fundamentals all round and it told.

    Josh Taylor has always been tight on the inside. He didn't need to create a game plan to shorten up his punches as it's a natural way of fighting for him.

    As for Taylor being hurt a few times. Could you please point out these instances? I remember an uppercut Josh ate with ease but at no time was he hurt by Davies. Davies offence was embarrassingly landing in Taylors gloves and arms the whole fight. It was an epic schooling of the highest order vs a complete fud.
