    Weve had some great match ups so far this yr in the uk. And in a wk or so we have the spence v brook card to look fwd to. But this week were in for a real treat with another brit v yank match up.
    Im going for Walsh pts here. I know this may be an unpopular choice bur if theres a chance to beat this kid Davis its either now or at the end of his career when hes shot.
    Obviously Walsh has to have a good game plan and stick to it.
    He cant stand in front of Davies, he needs to box with angle movement both in and out.
    Davis has shown he can get frustrated and thats what Walsh needs to do. Keep moving and switching and even counter the counter from angles.
    I think Walsh has the ability to do all of the above, he cant deviate ftom the plan, mind you.
    Davis aint taking Walsh serious and that could add into his downfall.
    Plus the fact Walsh has home advantage. This fight could put Liam on the world map.

    One of the best fights so far this year, on par with brook spence and smith williams. I've put money on a walsh win, so i'm backing him to do it on points

    Whats floyd mayweather up to now. Seen him stopping davis,s public workout to give him tips. You dont do that at public workouts. Hes an idiot. Honestly dont think he,ll be happy till davis gets beat. Not happy the limelights not on him for once. Davis a talented fighter but mayweathers gonna either rush him into fights he doesnt have the experiience for or find a way to jeopardize him imo.

    Davis would be better getting away from him asap.

    Mate told me that Dwyer has picked Walsh by KO.

    I'm still leaning towards Tank. What he did to Pedraza was a special performance. Tank by KO.

    I think Floyd should have got involved more to promote the fight. If this was on Sky Mayweather would be plastered all over everything and Davis sold as the new Floyd. The casuals would have been frothing at the gash.

    BT Sports just seem so passive when promoting fights. They have had such a good start too but the promotion is dead

    Davis is a special talent. This win would top the Pedraza one IMO being away from home against a ****ing tough and hungry Liam Walsh.
    Davis will get the stoppage IMO, will be a cracking fight though but tank just has too much

    All I've really seen of Davis is the Pedraza fight, which he did impress.

    That said, I don't think you can sleep on Liam Walsh... he's a solid fighter, big for the weight and I do rate him. He's been waiting for this world title shot for a long time also, let's remember he was scheduled to fight Ricky Burns up at LW a few years back which fell through.

    I guess it's whether Gervonta Davis is as special as some of the hype he's getting lead you to believe.

    3 out of 4 picking davis to win.
    As we get closer to fight night and weve done the presser and interviews all wk.
    Its obvious Davis is looking past Walsh.
    This is going to be the best fighter Davis has ever faced, who is also hungry and confident.
    Im getting evem more confident with my Walsh pts pick
