Ohara Davies stops Tom Farrell in sixth-round to win WBA International super lightweight title in devastating performance
Farrell was floored FIVE TIMES in a massively one-sided fight as Ohara Davies banished memories of his only ever defeat last time out
OHARA DAVIES banished memories of his first ever defeat with a scintillating stoppage of Tom Farrell in Liverpool tonight.
Davies went into the clash for the WBA International super lightweight title on the back of a crushing stoppage loss to Josh Taylor.
But tonight at the Echo Arena, the Hackney fighter had to much for a brave Farrell and answered his critics in fine style.
Davies knocked down Farrell FIVE TIMES in a hugely one-sided affair, before referee Steve Gray finally put the home fighter out of his misery.
From the very first bell it was clear Farrell was massively out of his depth.
With ten seconds to go in the opening round, Farrell was tasting canvas for the first time after "Two Tanks" Davies landed a huge left.
Farrell managed to get to his feet, albeit unsteady, and ultimately it was the bell that saved him.
If the first round was bad for the home fighter, the second was disastrous.
The Liverpool boxer was felled twice more, as Davies demonstrated that punch power that makes him a dangerous opponent at national level.
The next three rounds saw Davies continue to dominate, and while Farrell seemed to regain some composure and landed some jabs now and again, his face became a bloody mess.
