with davies being halls manditory how does everyone see it going, i think garys better footwork and power will be the key i think davies stops hall in the 2nd half of the fight with bodyshots, hopefully this fight comes of this time

Good call - bloody good fight.

Winner for Jamie McDonnell's European title?

It'll be a brawl, and I could see Gary stopping Hall as the fight goes on.

Hall looked decent last night, but did tire later on and started to take a few more punches. Davies should have the power to shake him at least.

hopefully this happens in septemeber :) watched last nights fight with gary and he was licking his lips

bloody good fight this one,50/50 fight i do favour davies slightly....think he will come thru in a war,like i say looking forward to this one

my thoughts last night were that first 6 hall was very professional however did get caught now if gary and im sure ull all agree if gary catches him with shots like power got caught he will stop him and if hall slowed in 2nd half of a fight with gary he would get kod really really looking 4ward to this after seing that last night and also credit were its due MARTIN POWER=TRUE WARRIOR

It might not be popular,but i will tip Hall.

Jamie wont be droping down, the winner will be going up to fight for the Euro, the winner will be the British Champion...

It'd be an excellent fight, get it on

Halls got decent workrate, but he won't be much bigger than Gary like he is with many opponents, plus his style will put him in range of the bigger-punching man. I like Davies on the style matchup here.

Darlington's Stuart Hall defends his British bantamweight title against former champion and mandatory challenger Gary Davies of St Helens in a good-looking clash of rangy pressure-fighters later this year.
The unbeaten Hall won the title last month by forcing Hackney veteran Ian Napa to surrender after eight rounds and retained just weeks later in a 10-round war with gritty Martin Power. The 30-year-old Hall, a former ABA finalist who turned pro pro only two years ago, is certainly making up for lost time.
Davies, 27, also holds a win over Power but was outsmarted by Napa for the British title last year on a tight 12-round decision, a majority decision, and that has to separate the two. Nevertheless, Davies can bang. He had won the title with a seven-round stoppage of good Welshman Matthew Edmonds and came back from Napa with a crushing first-round knockout of former British super-flyweight champion Andy Bell to secure this shot, dropping the Doncaster man twice. Said Counter-puncher on the boxrec forum: "Hall's got decent workrate but he won't be much bigger than Gary like he is with many opponents, plus his style will put him in range of the bigger-punching man."
This is a cracking match and bound to be close, possibly punch-for-punch, but Hall is on a roll and got in the 'rounds' against Power and I lean towards him.

Nice incorporation of CP's post!

if i was Gary's team i would have him making Hall lead, especially early, try to take the sting out of him and knock his head off with counters

Great matchup and shouldn't fail to deliver.

A real 50/50 fight, but now Hall has gained more experience from a long distance fight against Power, I think he will go up another level next time out. Hall late or on points, cracking match and already looking forward to the new season.

this fight happening in september or late into yr maloney has told gary so garys been added to booth moliter undercard in a 8rounder

Should be a very good match, this.

If he can improve on his stamina, Hall for me.

I thought he was blowing a little bit against Power...then again, he did get his second wind and picked up again.

both of them are big at the weight I think the stamina issues are evenly distributed between them (Davies must have pretty good stamina to come back from the 11th round battering Napa gave him, tho it was obvious he was blowing before then)

im not being bias my friend but gary wasnt blowing i can assure you just feeling abit sorry for himself due to injury when 2 b fair he shouldnt av been in the ring that night his doctors orders not mine lol but thats done now garys aim was to come back better than ever after the napa defeat and i think you all will agree that he done that against bell and he will against hall garys already been in gym for a wile now ticking over and is in gd shape and licking his lips at the fight with hall but either way gonna be a great fight.

this has all the ingrediants for a classic. both like to come forward & davies wallop's :!: aswell as being abit vunerable himself.
hall cant fight going back & this spells danger :!:
is it happening???
