Ben Davison commentating on BT Sport - Was he all that?

[mickey1975]

Where was Woodhall ? Olympics ? Surely they could have got someone better than Davison as a sub ?

Yeah - I’m pretty sure him and Ronald are commentating on every fight!

Are they? Bunce is doing his from home.

Perhaps not. I assumed they were as they did it in the last Olympics and every time I’ve wanted a watch a live fight (I’ve only really had time to watch the Brits so far) they’ve been available live online on the BBC site. I’d be amazed though I’ve they’re over there - will just be using a feed in the U.K.

A little too keen to show off his knowledge I thought, less is more sometimes. Sunny Edwards has been a good co-commentator recently.

Apart from the fake affected ‘roadman’ accent lol. Man needs to get off dat ride innit and spit like real man bruv

Allow it fam.

That’s my most dislikes rude boy phrase. Took me a few years to actually get what they meant.

He was absolutely f*cking awful. Desperate to show off how knowledgeable he is, clearly one of the greatest training brains we have ever seen - never stop banging on about it, lecturing anyone who would listen. A world class bore of the highest level.

Laughably bad, I don’t know how this is even a question

He's studied boxing no doubt about that ,, he's been lucky to off been picked through association rather than experience or proven record , has he ever even trained an ameteur or just jumped in at top level with guys who already know boxing , then alls he really has to do is make sure there in shape , .

But regardles his constant drivel , and constantly trying to impart his glorious and obvious knoledge , really suggests to me that this big headed little twerp , is'nt has confident has he makes out , he's just always looking for praise and acknoledgement , deep down he has an inferioraty complex , because he knows , he's got the jobs through bullshit baffles brains and already trained good boxers who knew what there doing anyway

Yeah and the fact he’s never boxed will always be held against him. Did he even train?

Dean Powell didn’t box but he was not really criticised for it and I agree. Dean was well respected. A real gent and loss to boxing. But thing is Dean did train as a boxer in an amateur gym, when it was decided he’d be better as a trainer….. so that’s still worthwhile experience.

Freddie Roach exposed him years ago, said he was shit basically.

Ricky Hatton is his coke buddy so won’t say shit.

[high tower 1]

Someone on here told me boxing is a closed shop. Far from it , boxing is the only major sport where you can be given world champions to train because of who your mates are. Imagine if Ben decided to get into football and Man Utd made him manager.

Baffles me. Hopefully he doesn’t balls up Taylor.

Boxing is a shambles today.

Ain’t that the truth

Roach Exposed Davison? What was Boxercise’s entry into boxing? Who did he blow to get so ‘lucky’?

I think it was Billy Joe.

[handsofstone]

Think it was the Akavov fight in Paisley eh

Fury corner Wilder I (Roach said Ben was clueless right after and how Fury could’ve stopped him in mid rounds)

Why did Billy choose him though? What is Ben’s background?

[Steveh583]

He seems a nice young man full of potential tbh. I think he can go on to do good things. It reminds of when Adam booth emerged and was deemed the worse trainer in the world who was gonna disappear over night. The same ‘fans’ who discredit joe Gallaghers achievements.

He was a kid who always liked coaching, started off football coaching, then he started going down and helping out down the local boxing gym and studying the game.
He was local to BJS and when he was starting out he helped Billy by holding the bag, watching the time, pads etc.
Over time they developed a relationship where BJS liked and trusted him and Davison started doing more.
In that time Ben was gaining more experience down the gym and developing himself, I think in fact it was him who trained BJS for one of his world title fights.
Anyway it was BJS who then introduced Ben to Tyson Fury, they clicked, and that was the start of Davison making a name for himself.

Sounds like the perfect grounding to be an elite pro coach in world heavyweight title fights

Thanks for the info
Lucky boy I guess but he must have something to be trusted by those names. Davison isn’t a traveller though is he?

Fury corner Wilder I (Roach said Ben was clueless right after and how Fury could’ve stopped him in mid rounds)

i remember that, and then ppl got mad at roach for it. bizarre.

Fury fought great, put on a masterclass when nobody thought he could.

They clearly had a plan which was executed well, Tyson won by a mile.

Roach wasn't neutral, he was looking for work, and Davison had come from nowhere and jumped the queue.

and then he got aggressive and stopped him in 6 and won every round and never got dropped......totally bizarre for anyone to have a hissy fit about roach not liking the first fight strategy. he's a pro trainer ffs, his whole livelihood is strategy and assessing things like that, not to suck ben's cock

Can’t stand the Kunts

No seriously tho, they are the worst fans of any sport. Fickle as fukk and all think they are angelo Dundee. Dare to dispute one on a subject and you are a ‘casual’.

[high tower 1]

Can’t be as bad as football fans. For 9 months a year my what’s app is flooding with boring football chat zzzzzz
