Breakdown: Gervonta Davis vs. Liam Walsh fight preview and prediction

Saturday’s big boxing day kicks off with my pick for best fight of the night when Floyd Mayweather protege Gervonta Davis (17-0; 16 KO) takes on Liam Walsh (21-0; 14 KO). This 130 pound fight is the first defense of Davis’s IBF Super Featherweight title. Davis is ranked #6 in the division by Ring Magazine, with Walsh unranked. The fight will air on Showtime this Saturday, May 20 with a fight time of 6:00 p.m. ET for the full card. As the fight takes place in London, expect the Showtime broadcast to be on a slight tape delay.
