Fight Analysis

Walsh has been in deeper domestic and international water. Rafferty has to rush a southpaw who knows how to hold the lead foot. If Walsh jabs and exits, Rafferty is chasing the fight from round two.

Recent Form

Walsh's recent work is as a seasoned lightweight/super-feather operator. Rafferty is the less proven man in this pairing and needs a fast, messy start.

Fighting Style

Walsh southpaw: lead foot outside, left straight, clinch. Rafferty orthodox: come forward and hope the right hand finds a home. Timing beats rush if Walsh is sharp.

Key Statistics

Connect rate on the rear hand should favor Walsh. Rafferty needs a high pressure-minute count to flip close rounds in a UK hall.

Weight / Reach / Stance

Walsh is the more compact, experienced southpaw. Rafferty has to close. Stance geometry is the mismatch, not a listed height gap.

Knockout / Stoppage Record

Walsh can stop a fading pressure man late. Rafferty's path is an early right hand. Distance still prices as the favorite outcome.

Betting Insights

Walsh moneyline. A points win is the match. Rafferty by KO is the live dog, not Walsh by KO at a short number.

Final Prediction

Pick Liam Walsh by decision. Confidence 64. Win split 37–63. Take Walsh to win on the cards.
