    If O'Hara Davies gets stick for going the distance with a journey man from the British public, I want to see the same for Josh Taylor.
    For all Taylor's amateur pedigree, I'm 80% sure he loses to Davies. Davies reach is way bigger than Josh's.

              It's only his 8th fight ffs. Most prospects come up against an awkward journey man type who give them some problems. Seen it with many boxers who went on to big things, and there's been some elite level fighters who've even been beat during the development stages of their career's.

                Does a dull decision win make him a boring fighter like Floyd Mayweather and Andre Ward?

                Was his opponent a bum like Andre Berto or a journeyman like Alexander Brand, who he SHOULD have KOed?

                  You mean slow featherfisted no hoper.

                  He was put in with a guy to make in him look good and he failed to do so.

                  He's 26...the same age as Spence....look the difference between the 2.
