Josh Kelly said: “I believe he is going to bring exactly what Liam Smith was going to bring, but the big difference is that Liam is world class.
“If you put our styles and boxing ability, side by side, I believe you will see that Ishmael has been tossed in at the deep end.
“When it comes to crunch time, the big crowd, it’s going to come on top of him, real quick.
“He hasn’t got the power for me to respect him and for him to want to stand and trade. He fought Troy Williamson and didn’t have him hurt once.
“[Ishamel] you need to wind it up and chill out. Relax, relax, I know it’s your first time, but relax.”
Reflecting on the exchanges, Kelly said with a smile: “It’s a bit spicy.”
Ishmael Davis said: “I heard Josh’s interviews this week – he’s overlooking me.
“Your best win is Troy Williamson, who I just beat as well, and every time you have stepped up, you have been beat.
“I am the most progressive British boxer and you are overlooking me. On Saturday, you are going to be in hell.
“You are a pretty boy, you are not cut like me.”
Ishmael is gonna win, Josh has no chance. He’s too confident and not as good as he thinks. Ishmael will show him on Saturday. Go Ishmael!
Josh is just jealous because Ishmael is better than him. He’s scared of losing, that’s why he’s talking like that. But we all know Ishmael will come out on top.
Ishmael and Josh both have skills, but only the fight will tell who is the best. Let’s see what happens on Saturday!
Haha, Josh and Ishmael are like two kids arguing in a playground. Let’s see who will back up their words in the ring!
Josh Kelly is delusional if he thinks he can beat Ishmael Davis. Ishmael is a beast in the ring and will destroy him. Josh better watch out, he’s going to get knocked out real quick.
