BoztheMadman Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Haven't seen much of this Gervonta, but Walsh is one of the best British fighters of today I think. When it comes to talent and record also...he hasn't yet won any major titles but he might. He's still unbeaten and few Brit fighters can say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robprosser Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Davis looked terrific in his title win but Walsh is quite a skillful fighter. He could exploit Davis' relative inexperience. I hope it doesn't go to the scorecards because Floyd will moan and gripe if it doesn't go Davis' way regardless of legitimacy.

pittbox Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Very good fight. Davis looked impressive against Pedraza and Walsh already has some decent wins. I predict that Walsh may be much more problematic for American compared to Pedraza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I predict that Walsh may be much more problematic for American compared to Pedraza. I tend to agree. Not saying Davis won't win. Just that Walsh presents a little bit more professional resistance, compared to all of the other opponents that Davis has had to deal with at this point in his career. Also making him travel for his 1st title defense is rough. If he comes thru tho, that leaves very little question marks moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cableaddict Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? This is a brilliant fight. I can't even make a prediction, except it should be massively entertaining. Davis is a little firecracker, never a dull moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APW Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? A decent overseas fight for Davis and showcasing his skills for UK fans still early in his career. Cracking opportunity for Walsh and the experience will hopefully only enhance his career further down the line if he doesn't pull it off. Davis looked mighty impressive against Pedraza, so will be more than confident of a fairly routine defence. It's a big challenge for Walsh, and it's also a risk Mayweather thinks is worth taking for enhancing both Davis' profile further with boxing-mad Brits, and possible huge financial gains from future lucrative bouts. Looking forward to seeing both fighters development Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbymanc Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? I hope Walsh boxes his ears off, it goes to the scorecards and we get to see Floyd bleating about them nasty nasty judges again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittbox Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? One of the most exciting and underrated fights yet to come. Davis looked perfect recently, but I don't think Pedraza was that good as many people thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

repsac Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Davis isn't very well spoken. He seems like the type that should let his fighting/punching do all the talking for him. But being signed to TMT, he's probably being forced to be more vocal. The thing with Farmer has been going on since well before the Pedraza fight. lol @ Sam Watson not even knowing what weight class his fighter is fighting at.

LondonRingRules Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? --- Sam Watson and his two boys have the cushiest jobs in boxing and I'd imagine we get a memoir out of him once uncle al kicks out of boxing.

Ton Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Odds makers seem to suggest Davis is a pretty overwhelming favourite with prices as short as 1/4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Female Money Mayweather Fan Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? I was extremely impressed with Davis against Pedraza, he was quick, powerful, threw corkscrew uppercuts and punch combinations. I know Walsh has got the skill and can box but I'm going with "The Tank" Gervonta Davis on this one. For me he has it all. It's good to see The Money Team fighters are now starting to fight over here. Here's to seeing a few more over here in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WelshDevilRob Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Took Gervonta three attempts to make weight. Not a good sign. Am backing him to win but could be a tricky night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonRingRules Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? --- Picked Walsh in my predictor with no confidence, but now may be lookin good.

gavpowell Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? Trouble making weight or otherwise, I'm still backing Davis over Walsh - probably by TKO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syrianpitbull Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Re: Gervonta Davis vs Liam Walsh - Who Wins? I have never seen Walsh fight before so it is tough to say. However, fish eyes tends to bring on his fighters much more slowly compared to other promoters so I hope he is prepared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
