Johnny Fisher vs Dave Allen - DAZN

Reminds me of Price v Thompson. Hard to comeback from that. Met the gatekeeper and lost. I'm sure Fisher will have some good nights still, but ultimately, he has found a level. This was a poor man's version of that fight as that was world level eliminator and this was maybe a domestic level eliminator type fight. You could argue that Price vs Thompson was a poor man's Mercer vs Morrison. Exposing raw fighters is similar to truth serum after these guys exposed most fade away a few comeback and are as good as they were before the knockout but that is the exception not the rule.

I just tuned in 30 seconds before the KO. Wish I would have seen the whole fight because that would probably be an even better ending if I had. Fisher looked like he couldn't or just wouldn't defend properly. In the post fight interview it sounded like Allen knew that Fisher was wasting a lot of energy and Allen was waiting for the moment he thought Fisher had expended most of his...then he pounced. Fishers legs had clearly slowed in the 5th and Allen knew it. Allen wasn't a bad amateur, he won domestic tournaments. That's why he's been around sparring all the best. His pro career has just mostly him being over matched too early but he's still too clever for a guy like Fisher with no boxing background. Allen played it perfectly. Knew the exact moment Fisher slowed and took him out.

Good for Dave. Got a second payday after that corrupt decision. Now will get a 3rd

Yes Dave! I always knew he was all wrong for Fisher. The thing with Allen is he fought so many tough fights early in his career, fights he could never win. But then you put a real novice like Fisher in with him and he hasn't got any skill Allen has never seen. Hasn't got any power Allen has never felt. He's certainly not gonna intimidate him. Once Allen gets confident in the fight, it's a pretty easy fight for him. Allen isn't high level, but he's all wrong for a novice with no real boxing background because of all those tough fights and he's sparred most top fighters. I consider Allen sort of a domestic-level gatekeeper. If you can't defeat him, then you're not ready for world-level. Johnny Fisher is young enough to bounce back, if he still wants to. But he's gonna have to start over.

Really satisfying KO.... glad I tuned in. Allen looked like he had no business in the ring and got a massive knockout. Also satisfying cause he should’ve got the win in the first fight, imo.

SLEPT. What a KO.

That was brutal. He stiffened up before he hit the canvas.

that was amazing….he only had 7 seconds left to that stoppage too lol

Rhino!!!!!

Unbelievable. Full respect to Allen for pulling off the win. But this really shows how limited Fisher was. Complete hypejob. Must have been fed some really week opposition in those first 11 fights.

Allen lands a 1-2-3 knockout with two body shots followed by a massive hook! Towel was thrown before Fisher hit the canvas!!!!!!!!

Devastating knockout by Allen, Fisher fell face first hard. :boxing:

Hahaha, wow

Holy smokes!!!

Wow!!!
