Indeed.  The commentators debating if the stoppage was too soon, but not stopping it then would only have meant stopping it a minute or so later, or even Walsh going out cold.  Davis looked a class above.

He could have been stopped when he got up. He was staggering and that could have made it nasty.

It's good to see George Groves finally win a world title.

Brook was beaten down there. Think that might be the end of him at the world level.

Thought he faded pretty badly there.  Weight issues may have been a problem, but as you say it might be the start of a decline.

Three rounds maximum.  Less if Mayweather wants it.

Some UFC bloke versus Mayweather? I don't care how good he is at his own sport but any average boxer should have ring craft that would cause him problems.

I agree. I think it's going to be like a Cat toying with a mouse before going in for the kill.

Ormond v Evans - it's always better to see two well-matched boxers rather than a big name versus a no-hoper.

This Paul Smith V Tyron Zuege fight seems like one-way traffic so far  :-\

Barnes v Olteanu is much closer than you'd have thought.
