Reasoning

Having seen Francesco Grandelli visit London’s York Hall to do battle with Nathaniel Collins in May 2024, I know that it could be a difficult night’s work for Liam Davies if the Italian is allowed to get into his groove. He comes to fight, and he comes to win. In Davies, he faces a world-class operator whose only loss was to Shabad Masood in a fight he was expected to win. Grandelli has a habit of fighting square on, and it is for this reason that I think Davies will find a home for his backhand and stop Grandelli.
