And Dubois v Kevin Johnson. Callum Johnson takes on Beterbiev same night. Good nights worth of boxing there. I like the Catterall fight. Bookies have got it neck and neck with Jack being the slight favourite. I just don’t think he’s gona have felt power like OD’s before. I think it’s gona be a cagey affair to start with maybe JC ahead on the cards but I’m gona have to go with OD by stoppage in the late rounds like 9 or 10.
If Catterall starts too cruise through the second half of the fight like he did in the McKenna fight OD will take him out. I’m leaning towards OD due too his power
I’m going to stick with my bold prediction that Catterall stops Ohara within 6 rounds. Heart goes Callum Johnson, head goes Beterbiev.
I want to believe the hype about Catteral, but he just doesn't seem to move through the gears, seems one-paced. I think he leads early then OD gets into it, rams the pressure on from mid way and takes over
I’m convinced Catterall is going to stop him. Ohara has impressive physical attributes in his strength, reach and awkwardness but he’s coming up against another skilful southpaw. I’m an admirer of Catterall’s skills. When he’s switched on he really is difficult to land on, his judgement of range is quality. He’s got really good timing and mixes his shots up well. That left hand is getting more hurtful with each fight. Davies has won his last 3 but this is a step up in levels again. Last time he stepped up he took a knee from a jab, and eventually turned his back on his opponent.
Only a few days off this, really excited about it. This is the fight where people will start getting as excited about Catterall as we do about Ritson. I think this is going to be an impressive performance and he’s going to beat up on poor Ohara.
I agree m8, I fancy Catterrall to win this. Jamie Moore is improving his body shots, think they will have a big effect on OD. I actually think a big left hook will play a big part in Catterrall winning. Big props to both guys, cracking fight. If it goes late I think OD has a decent chance but like you I don't think it will go late.
People say he’s a bit one paced, but he’s got so much variety. Fights so well on the inside and the outside. I agree about the left hook, that stance of Ohara’s is so awkward, he’s side on and he really ducks low but he can be caught with a big left. He’s not a bad boxer Ohara and he’s got power, but I just think Catterall will keep working him over inside the pocket.
I agree, Catterrall has very underrated skill and variety. I think his fitness is questionable late on, hence Davies is a real danger if it goes late. I think too many dont give Catterrall the credit he deserves since Josh Taylor burst on the scenes as their comparing him to Taylor. I think Davies will be shocked by Catterralls quality.
Catterall for me but he cant afford to switch off like he often does Would love to see Johnson win but Berbietev looks to be a very special talent and hard as nails
