Ohara Davies vs Josh Taylor

[The Smash]

No doubt it would have been a better event as a Matchroom promotion, but consciously deciding not to do your part in promoting your own fight is beyond the pale when it comes to mind games for me. It helps no one, not least the sport itself


Yeah he all but admitted it on Twitter

What did he say?

[REMOVE SHARK 55]

Is it just me or is Taylor just level above Ohara? Davies has long arms and heavy right hand, but is sloppy fighter. Taylor much more fluid, comfortable at higher pace and versatile. I think Ohara will get punished and only question is whether he survives the distance.
We'll see though.

What a fight I honestly can't wait for tomorrow this will all be settled. I think it'll be closer than you think. I don't think the fight goes 12 anymore, was leaning towards Ohara Davies decision before.

Taylor has good fundamentals. Good straight punches. Good lil half steps to the left/right. Good ring IQ.

I'm a big fan of Oharas style & I think people don't give him credit for his IQ in there. Has a great sense of distance & slips punches in almost slow motion good on the eye. Ohara may just have one of the best jabs domestically. Digs it into the pit of the stomach, snaps the head back or simply a touching jab followed by a right hand. Maybe Taylors velocity you're talking about can disrupt his rhythm.

Looking forward to this one. I'm totally unsure on who to pick, both are still basically untested.

Taylor is talented but i also think his amateur background is a little overrated. He won a commonwealth but that's nothing like winning a world championship or olympic medal, not even close. Besides, even if he was a stellar amateur, it doesn't mean he will cross over that well.

Davies has power and i think his boxing ability is bit underrated too. He finds a way to land shots but again, the level of competition hasn't been that great either.

If Davies can't impose himself on Taylor and is too one dimensional, i think Taylor outpoints him. I think it just depends on if Ohara can land shots and i think he can.

I'm picking Davies for the sake of picking a fighter but really i wouldn't put money on it.
