Round-By-Round - Gervonta Davis (c) vs. Liam Walsh - May 20th 2017

[Jackson328]

You will never see him again on these shores again after the way the muppets in the crowd acted tonight .

bellends like that need banning tbh, must be loads of camera footage that obviously won't be utilised as its boxing so they think its ok. stuff like that really puts me off taking my sons to live shows and its all lard arses with beer inside them that wouldn't put up when sober

It pisses me off too.

I hated how the crowd booed Golovkins after the brook fight. And Linares after the first Crolla fight.

No wonder top fighters won't come here.

US viewers of a certain age will recall Minter vs Hagler in 1980 and think that nothing has changed in the UK and they'd be right . . . .

Davis looks to have talent but it's Liam Walsh who he's beaten who's nowhere near proven at world level.

[gilgamesh]

Don't know why the commentators were saying "Let's have a rematch".

Davis has bigger fish to fry. No reason to waste everyone's time smashing Walsh again.

[watsupdoc87]

Anyone watching this barthelemy relikh fight it's great. Relikh had him down and nearly out in round 5

Didn't hear it from the commentry , but heard it from Walsh's brother .

Yep after a close fought barnburner like that Al Haymon is sure to set that one up .

It will be the Farmy Army never been so disgusted with fans in my life when we were in Norwich.. Singing about raping Scottish women for 100's of years and will rape them for 100 more.. I like Liam as he's a nice guy Ryan and Michael have wee man syndrome and it seems the fans have no morals.. Liam lost tonight because his bottle crashed simple as that.. Is Davis a level above maybe but Liam is A lot better than he showed

Before my time but I have seen that on YouTube.

[ElJefe]

No surprise to me at all. Walsh was also burning up so much energy whereas Davis was so relaxed.

I have Davis in a lot of accas

Completely agree re: burning up energy. Lots of herky jerky movement that served no purpose. Davis was economical, efficient and clinical.

Good stoppage as well. IIRC Walsh got up on 9 so even gave the referee the slight chance to count him out in the act of rising. His legs were wobbling as the referee touched his gloves togehter, he didn't show any signs of being coherent or of being able to avoid what Davis was throwing. Good stoppage.

Would like to see Smith vs Walsh next. Both a level or two below Davis and co.

Davis looks to have talent but it's Liam Walsh who he's beaten who's nowhere near proven at world level.

Agree on Walsh....a decent number of people talked him up, but he never looked better than EBU level to me, and tonight he seemed incapable of raising his lead hand to protect himself.

Pedraza did better against Davis, who looks to have quite the mix of speed and pop.

Yeah me too, it's embarrassing. Makes me feel ashamed.

He was nowhere near ready. Another few defences of his commonwealth title and he'd have beaten Davis easily...

Well that was easy money. £200 down, £323 back. Thanks allegedly for giving me the opportunity to make some quick cash and thank you the bookies for giving insane odds for a gimme.

Couldn't take my eyes off that girl's tits sat behind FW

I missed the majority of the fight due to her

The power is one thing, but Tank's speed was something else.

Looks a fighter of the highest caliber.

this ^ scary speed and accurate.immediate step to the side when he had walsh in trouble so walsh was covering up for punches coming from straight in front of him. i thought his height might be an issue when he moves up in weight,now i don't think it will be a problem . going to take someone with incredible speed and movement to give him major trouble.

Lomachencko?

yep, that would be a great fight.

agreed . the first time i took my wife to a show we ended up with a pissed up bellend sitting next to us half way through the show .luckily some of the lads from the gym i was at were doing the stewarding and moved him on .it put the missus off going to another show though. i am sure some of the crap that goes on puts off a load of people attending a show for the first time from ever going to another one.

[Oiky]

Davis was just too strong for him

[world ranked]

Who are the six people that pick pick Walsh by KO ffs.

[MightyWarrior]

WHAT a puncher, of course it wasnt an early stoppage, if the referee had had a bit more composure and asked Walsh to walk towards him, he wouldn't have been able to, his legs were jelly. You could see Liam felt the power in the first round and thought oh my God i've underestimated this bloke .
