The world of boxing sports jumps right into the new year with a f🍸ull night of fights this week. In the super lightweight class, Ohara Davies and Ismael Barroso are set to fight in a thrilling co-main event on Sunday, January 7, 2024. These two 140-pound boxers have been set to fight twice before, but both times the fights were called off at the last minute. The interim WBA World Super Lightweight title will go to the fighter whose hand is raised on Saturday, no matter how the fight ends. This professional fight will take place at the fancy Virgin Hotel Las Vegas in Las Vegas, Nevada. As of Saturday night's co-main event, Ohara Davies has won all five of his fights. He has won his last seven fights in a row.

When Ohara Davies goes into the ring, he wants to win the Interim WBA World Super Lightweight Title. Davies is a British fighter who is 31 years old and has a professional record of 25–2. He has won 18 of his fights by knockout. From 2016 to 2017, he was the WBC silver light-welterweight champion. Davies allegedly had an 18-0 record as an amateur before he turned pro. Professionally, Davies is a 5'7" orthodox boxer with a 71" reach. This weekend, he will make his start in the United States and try to win his first world title. Davies is very sure that he will win the Interim WBA World Super Lightweight Strap and make a lot of money in the process. The only two losses he has ever had were to the best 140-pound fighters in the world. Davies is confident going into his fight with Barroso because he has won his last seven fights, four by knockout or💫 technical knockout. His most recent win was over Lewis Ritson in March 2023, when Davies won with a vicious left hook to Ritson's stomach.

Ismael Barroso has a professional record of 24-4-2, with 22 knockouts. He was begging for a rematch with Rolly Romero after losing to him in May, but he'll have to settle for a fight against Ohara Davies, which may be harder. Even though Barroso lost that fight by TKO and is a big threat going into this weekend's fight, he showed some signs against Romero that show he can win the Interim WBA World Super Lightweight title this weekend. In August 2005, he started boཧxing professionally for the first time. Since then, he has won the WBA interim lightweight title and fought for the WBA lightweight and super-lightweight crowns. He is a tough, strong 5'8 ½" southpaw with a 69" reach and a fun style that fans love.

Davies is the favorite to win this fight. In addition to power, Ohara Davies has a lot of benefits in terms of reach, height, and reach. His left hook knocked out Lewis Ritson in their last fight, and if it hits Barroso, the fight will be over quickly. Davies ha꧋s used an interesting strategy against Southpaw🧸s in the past. For example, in his 2017 fight with Josh Taylor, he used a very timid Philly shell guard and was pushed out of the ring. Everyone Barroso fights puts a lot of pressure on them and hits them in the head and body all the time. Ohara Davies will show that he is a better boxer than his almost 41-year-old opponent. Barroso's chin has been cracked a few times, and father time still hasn't been lost. I believe Davies will win via KO/TKO.
