Davies took the IBO super bantamweight world title in March with a knockout win over Erik Robles Ayala.
IBO super bantamweight king Liam Davies admits he is proud to have fulfilled his late grandfather’s prediction that he could become a world champion and is determined to keep honouring his memory.
He owned Donnington Boxing Club, where Davies trains to this day, and saw his grandson win the schoolboy championship there.“The generations of my family before – none of us had done anything massive and so it was put on my shoulders and my grandad used to tell me I could be a world champion,” Davies told the PA news agency.
“Things got hard, my dad took over boxing and, for many years, I felt it wasn’t the same without my grandad. But, thankfully, my dad kept me on the right path and he always had a go at me when I missed training and was on my case.”The 28-year-old, who went on to beat Marc Leach for the British title in 2022, lauded the support of his team who constantly reiterate his grandfather’s positive message.
