Ishmael Davis returns to the ring this weekend as he faces Sam Gilley on the huge Tottenham Hotspur Stadium show headlined by Chris Eubank Jr. vs. Conor Benn.
Davis enters the contest looking to build momentum towards a big opportunity in 2026 following a minor setback against Caoimhin Agyarko back in September. Davis has since registered a win by scoring a low-profile victory last month.
In the build-up to his upcoming contest, Davis is leaving no stone unturned, and he has been part of Conor Benn’s training camp as the Essex man gets ready for his mouthwatering showdown with Eubank Jr.
Benn is hoping the experience from the first fight combined with another hard outing on Eubank Jr’s ledger will be enough for him to level the series, and Davis, who has been impressed by Benn in training, has provided his verdict on this Saturday’s fascinating sequel.
“They both let the hate take over. There was no skill. It was just who could fight harder and longer,” said Davis when speaking to Boxing News.
“That will change in the second fight, which is going to play a big factor in who wins. I believe Conor is more mentally settled now and now he’s carrying the power and he’s better at the weight. He’s carrying the power better. And I believe Conor might stop him.”
Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn's much anticipated rematch is live and exclusive on DAZN PPV on Saturday, November 15. Buy for £24.99 UK / $59.99 US.
