The Split Decision’s Prediction

This fight hinges on whether Eggington can slow Walker down in the first half. If he can land heavy and make the Wolverhampton man respect his power, the middle rounds become interesting. But Walker’s conditioning has been a defining weapon across his last four fights, and Eggington hasn’t done 12 competitive rounds since the Baraou fight in March 2024. 

Split Decision backs Walker to win by TKO, rounds 9-11.

Why Walker vs Eggington Matters

This fight came together unusually quickly. Walker had been lined up for a possible shot at Lewis Crocker’s IBF welterweight title before Crocker was ordered to defend against Liam Paro in Australia, closing that route.

Eggington then publicly made himself available, giving Walker a high-profile domestic opponent for his Wolverhampton homecoming. The result is a proper Midlands derby: Walker from Wolverhampton, Eggington from Birmingham, and both men known for high-output, physically demanding fights.

Walker enters on the best run of his career after victories over Lewis Ritson, Harry Scarff, Liam Taylor and Pat McCormack. Eggington brings far greater experience, having shared the ring with names such as Liam Smith, Abass Baraou, Dennis Hogan and Joe Pigford.

Between them, Walker and Eggington have 66 professional fights, 53 wins and 28 knockouts.
