I do like fisher he’s a good boy, but Dave is such a likeable figure and he’s had a hard run. I hope for his sake he can either get the win or look good in defeat perhaps push Jonny all the way either way wish him well
feeling your words...two good lads...would be great to see a proper good fight....may the best man win ...just out of interest are you an older head @vn5520 ? all the best...Phil ☘☘
@sashajasper497 I think you've missed my point. Dave *did* aspire to achieve greatness, and he recognised that he just wasn't good enough. So now he knows his actual level. I'm not saying people shouldn't have aspirations - just that I respect the fact that he recognised he wasn't good enough and isn't like saying people who aren't good enough, but always come up with BS excuses
Look after ya sen Dave lad. Run, then take your money. In that order, run hold spoil, counter don’t lead, hold some more then run again, embrace and take your money. Obviously if you catch him cold I’ll be screaming the house down, but I don’t care if it’s a stinker as long as you get home safe to the young n’s
The lad is honest, he has always been miles and miles away from top level. Its good to see his speech isnt as slurred as it used to be, I doubt he will see the 4th round though.
Think it’s wrong to write Dave off as someone who will fall over in a round. He’s been in with the best and Johnny has boxed at English level. Big test for him in my opinion!
You take a man with the same ability and skills with a completely different mindset and then see how he performs. This man is a defeatist through and through!
Dave Allen has always been inconsistent, but he has pulled it out of the bag on a fair few occassions. His liver shot against Browne (Albeit a bit of a bum) was one of the cleanest and most well timed shots i ever saw. Exceptional knockout.
One round job for Fisher. After the Price and Clarke fights Allen is done at this point hes just going to get seriously hurt, sometimes the payday just isnt worth it when your hearts not in boxing.
If he comes in fit and game hes got a half chance. If he turns up like we have seen in years gone by badly outnof shape even on big matchroom cards then its quick work for johnny
Gone up a lot in my estamate , both good fighter , that’s a deep an honest interview, guaranteed none of u little divs can’t do what he has done … fact 😆 good luck brother
He's so self deprecating. Every interview i see "he's tired, he's not good enough, he hates travelling" he just moans. Classic British mentality! Lost before you start.

Trained by Jamie MURRRRRRRR
😂@@judnaylor07
Is he?
Always been a big fan of Dave🙌💪fingers crossed for the win
Big, big respect to Dave for recognising and understanding his level.
Dave has potential to be the goat
Yes we should all recognise and understand our level and never aspire to greatness.

Tbf you can tell he’s in shape by his face, face never lies
true...peace ☘☘
What an honest man. Straight to the point. No messing about. All the best Dave.
Refreshing interview. Hope he gets a few more big paydays, enjoys his last fights & steps away into a happy place
Hes one of the lads, best personality in boxing. So open and real ❤
Really? Like when he lies about training hard before every fight then says he didn’t when he loses?
Blokes a Legend! His girl calls him “Dave” cracks me up haha😂

He'll quit within 4 without taking much punishment.
That’s the one,.good lad Dave is
Dave's very down to earth and pleasant to listen to... Would love to see him as a commentator after he retires. Good luck in everything lad
Gotta love Dave Allen
Love the both these fisher and Allen both proper gentlemen really don't know who I want too win think I'd be happy either way may the best man win!!!
it's got the feel of an old skool fight...proper respect...peace ☘☘
Daves always been a top bloke.
"im hoping i can perform" is not the words of someone confident of a win on Saturday. good luck dave!
it's honest!! you ask my wife about performing...we all wanna be able to perform😁😁
Luis Ortiz was a great boxer tbh
An old Ortiz really tested a young Wilder
Dave looking good
He looks like paul sykes
@Metso-ateco who?
She calls me Dave 😂😂 funny af
The lad is honest, he has always been miles and miles away from top level. Its good to see his speech isnt as slurred as it used to be, I doubt he will see the 4th round though.

Dave Allen can beat Fisher, i wouldnt be shocked at all.
It could go the distance
Good interview
Man,I hope Dave does well..such a genuine guy..good luck mate!
12:10 “I’d got to an island, I’d move there and I’d never box again.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The streets will never forget
Dave is ace and he’s funny tbf , “me oldest calls me dave “ 😂😂😂
9/1 allen to win.. well worth a punt
got a 10ner on him
What a great bloke
You take a man with the same ability and skills with a completely different mindset and then see how he performs. This man is a defeatist through and through!
Great interview. Completely understand exactly where Dave is talking from. 100.
Similar situation when you came out of retirement?
Me eldest started calling me Dave 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️. Go on Dave do the business 👨💼
Huge fan of both of these guys. Hope the best guy wins but if Dave loses I hope it’s not the last we see of him.
Fair play Dave!! He’s a good lad full respect!
Let your hands go David
exactly...'be first..it's the key to boxing! a quote from the great Sugar Ray Leonard...peace ☘☘
You can't help but live Dave Allan. Good luck Dave. Do your best and enjoy Christmas after 👍
Come on Dave son. Putting Donny on the map
Dave Allen has always been inconsistent, but he has pulled it out of the bag on a fair few occassions. His liver shot against Browne (Albeit a bit of a bum) was one of the cleanest and most well timed shots i ever saw. Exceptional knockout.
If im honest as far as actual boxing goes dave your one of the best you defoe can box i respect you highly very honest man
Interesting fight, this one. Wishing Dave the best of luck!
Lovely big guy dave but I would he absolutely stunned if fisher doesn't stop him.
He's still got some grey matter - he's clearly an intelligent guy. Hope he does well - the sport could benefit from having him around again.
Always liked Dave seems like a good bloke
Come on Dave 💪🏻🤞🏻
I just hope that Dave actually lets the punches fly !!!!!!!
Hope Dave can do it
As a once professional sportsman, although this man is sincere he has zero chance in this fight with this attitude.
great guy👍
Love this bloke
good luck dave
50/50 this! Allen can really fight. Fishers body will be tested
Arms like a T rex 😂😂😂😂
Sam jones was a bakers delivery boy, flat cap the lot🤣🤣🍞🍞
One round job for Fisher. After the Price and Clarke fights Allen is done at this point hes just going to get seriously hurt, sometimes the payday just isnt worth it when your hearts not in boxing.
Hope big dave puts on a decent showing and doesnt take serious damage, decent payday for the fella aswell
dace is a sound bloke, it is hard not to like him
9/1 Allen is to win
Both good lads but will be rooting for the rhino…….a proper down to earth geezer
IF Dave has done a full camp, then he has every chance of winning this, BUT has he lived the life for this fight because we know Johnny Fisher has.
Want him te win so much believe in yourself m8
Sad to see Allen back in the ring, understand it’s probably a good sum of money, but I don’t think he has it in him anymore.
From this interview, i can tell he’s lost the confidence he had earlier when fight was announced.
Early stoppage - Big Johnny
Would have gone further in his career if he was dedicated.
Upset on the cards this will not end well for fisher dave will ko him coming in 🥊🥊
VICTIM OF 10% EDDIE HEARN.
Fisher is going to run through allen lol. Allen is finished
Yep , just can't get past that Frazer Clark performance. Absolutely Abysmal.
Based on what?
he will walk through him quite easily id be shocked if it goes past 6
Still impressive if Johnny knocks him out tho Dave's good at surviving
Casual
Proper nice guy and you have to admire his optimism but he’s in for a loss for sure
If he comes in fit and game hes got a half chance. If he turns up like we have seen in years gone by badly outnof shape even on big matchroom cards then its quick work for johnny
The way Allen thinks he going to wi this fight ffs fisher will go straight through him knockout round 2
Gone up a lot in my estamate , both good fighter , that’s a deep an honest interview, guaranteed none of u little divs can’t do what he has done … fact 😆 good luck brother
Seems a sound fella but been out 2 long and after 3 rounds I can see the gas tank going and getting sparked
This man is here for a pay day I don't believe he's bothered
THE LEADER OF THE DONCASTER CHAPTER OF THE DYSON FURY RIMMING CLUB
Extraordinary comment
@peternagy-im4be thank you
All them low key British boxers talk too much.
Allen looks like his had a weekend on the white and brown!
He's so self deprecating. Every interview i see "he's tired, he's not good enough, he hates travelling" he just moans. Classic British mentality! Lost before you start.
Sounds like English football as well.
Fisher will destroy him its a mismatch .. he is a nice guy but not good enough to beat fisher..
Allen is coming for Christmas pay
He's already lost. Watched this and thats enough for me
Such a negative boxer
Shouldn’t even be fighting in Saudi they’re taking the piss, this is a York hall or 02 fight!
This guy has been punched in the head far 2 many times
How’s that?. He comes across far more intellectual and articulate than most other fighters
Could Dave possibly be on anabolic steroids?
Na
He’s there for the payday, he knows he’s not going to win so isn’t even going to try can see it in his face
Selling the fight knows he’s getting knocked out easy inside 7
What a bum
