    Why is Dyah Davis a significant favorite in this? 1/2 on?

    Not that I've seen him like, but a quick scan over formlines wouldn't suggest he would be. Alfonso Lopez put up a pretty respectable performance against an albeit shite version of Pavlik.

    Davis is the 'home' fighter and pulled off an impressive upset against Marcus Johnson recently :think

    It's because he fought in Bristol once. That gives anyone a slight edge over anyone. :yep

    Okay, he's at home. I see.

    Marcus Johnson though? Guys probably ****, I'm not overwhelmed by that. Davis has some rather unimpressive results on his ledger.

    Because from watching Davis you would think he is evidently the superior fighter in just about every aspect, the reasons he usually comes up short are his own fault, due to his own lackadaisical nature of allowing the fight to pass him by, not working enough, etc.

    Watch Davis, then watch Lopez. It's clear who should win, but Dyah seems the type to screw himself over when he's favoured.

    Seems like it might be a half decent card at first look. Gonna try and stop up but I've been flaking out early all week.
