    Unless Walcott is left completely befuddled by Loughran's style, he should score with enough damaging punches to put Loughran on the retreat or to end the fight with a big right hand that Loughran can't recuperate from.

    Great A summed it up. I see Walcott landing a sneaky right hand over Tommy's extended left and ending it. Loughran seemed susceptible to a right hand over the top and Joe was an all time cutie who could punch. Plus Walcott was a solid 195-200lb fighter while Tommy was a light heavy who didn't have a big punch. His best chance is to use his boxing ability to a decision win but I can't help thinking that Walcott finds him at some point and ends it.
