That bodyshot from Davies was immense
All the shots from Davies had the kitchen sink behind them.
He is in the Oxford Dictionary under 'telegraph'
Even aguy like Ritson, who's defence only consists of ducking or taking a step straight backwards was making him miss 8/10 mighty swings

add a beard and go bald in your 20s...........youre gonna look older
that said, now you can tickle people with your beard and hide stuff in it
Bob Marley pulled a doobie out of his beard live in an interview on NZ TV back in 1979, he didn't spark it up, but it made newspaper headlines the next day

Very strange how little promotion it received.
He was a percieved ticket seller though wasn't he? Surely all those that were out for the nights of yesteryear still follow him on the socials and know when he is next fighting and they're up for another night out to cheer on their lad?
Or was it always the Sky pulling power. The locals see the ads on the TV and get tickets, rather than actually being invested in their local boy?

Heck, most of us didn't know much about this fight. It was only two days prior I managed to find a way of watching it.
Sky is still the boss on promoting UK fights. DAZN have learned that one, as have Fite tonight. With proper promotion that hall should have been at least 80% full instead of 15% from what I saw.
Some places are stating it was a 'WBA Eliminator' some a 'WBA Final Eliminator' either way I think it will be some time before he gets a shot (if at all) there a much more lucrative options for the titleholder out there.
