Preview: PFL 5 ‘Delija vs. Greene’

Amateur Lightweights

Biaggio Ali Walsh (3-1) vs. Travell Miller (3-2)

ODDS: Walsh (-700), Miller (+450)

For the second consecutive event with Walsh on the bill, the PFL has given an amateur bout prominent placement on its main card. That, of course, is for one reason only: Walsh is the grandson of boxing legend Muhammad Ali. Thus far, he has made short work of his opponents in two PFL bouts, finishing both inside of a round. This pairing figures to be no different.

Walsh seems to be interested in taking the proper steps before turning professional, so it seems unlikely that he will be changing his amateur status before the year’s end. When that time comes, it will be interesting to see if PFL throws him into its season format or adds him to a developmental event like the PFL Challenger Series. Perhaps he will be with a different organization altogether. No matter what the future holds, this looks to be another showcase for Walsh, who will put Miller away in short order.
