credit to josh taylor he was up for it and had the crowd behind him.

OH Davies was absolutely awful. reckless and rash throughout. no discipline. got put down by a jab before a wonder ko for the 2nd knockdown

In boxing you must protect yourself at all times. OH Davies has so much potential but today he literaly quit.
I just got the feeling that he was not motivated and more importantly did not prepare for this fight as well as he should have.

take nothing away from josh taylor. he may come across as some sort of thug/bully - he is a fantastic and ruthless fighter.

Life is funny sometimes....
I remember as a kid in Primary school, hearing of Tunde Ajayi's tough guy reputation on the street,..he was 10.
I met him a few years later, i was about 13/14 yr old.
Wants to show me how his boxing lessons are going, he gives me one punch to the stomach, Damn!!...
I remembered that punch for years!!

Great to see where he is today....

He just seems to be swinging big single shots.
Very amateurish.

How Taylor can't take advantage of this and knock him out shows he is not top level

On the money as ever.

Yeah, he eventually got there, Taylor can't mix it with the elite though. Can you imagine him vs Crawford?

How do you know if he can or can't mix it with the elite?

He's had 10 fights ffs, Crawford has had 31!

Josh is actually a fantastic guy in real life, really approachable. Been to 3 or 4 of his shows in Edinburgh and went to the after drinks place the first time and met him and his family.

As for whether he will be a world champ, I think after the Burns fight then he will be on the list for getting a shot. In terms of what the McGuigan's have done they are giving him tests. Like it or not Davies had a rep for being a big puncher and having an awkward style. Credit to the promoters for getting it together.
