Keyshawn Davis captured the WBO light belt from the best -ranked colleague Denys Berincyk last Friday night, but he is not better than a guy he replaced as a belt in terms of fighting Gervont Davis and Vasily Lomachenko.
Cruz Challenge
Clearly, Keyshawn does not fight Tank Davis next year or a year. That doesn’t happen. He and Top Rank need that pipe dream and focused on reality. The fight that is available Keyshawn is the Cuban Fena Andy Cruz, a guy who won him four times, and has invited him since he was professional.
If Top Rank believes in Keyshawn, they need to align him with Andy to make his career extra. If the real gold is 24K, he will win Cruza and prove the boxing world that he has developed since he was routinely hit him in amateurs. But if Keyshawn loses, this is what I expect to happen, he will always deceive gold and be just Edgar Berlanga guy who built Top Rank as a false star.
Keyshawn has not yet struggled with anyone talented. Indeed, all the fighters he won in his professional career in 13 fights would lose 20-year-old Abdullah Mason, Andy Cruz and Raymond Murtalla. There is no one in Keyshawn’s resume as a professional so three would not win and look better doing it.
Winning the WBO title makes Keyshawn (13-0, 9 Kos) one of the many belts in sports without the right options for mega fights to happen. It’s even worse for Keyshawn, 25, because it’s getting bigger and is already medium weight.
Weight bullies I cannot artificially remain in the divisions that are forever below their size without being caught. Keyshaww will not be able to play a drainage game forever, hoping she will be able to stay long enough to fight money against Tank Davis.
For fighters using manipulation weight to capture belts, success is transient because it is impossible to stay in a division that is three classes of weight below your physical size.
“I thought (Raymond) Muratalla fought in a kind (IBF lightweight title) eliminator (against Best Abdullaeva on May 15) to put herself in place. There is an opportunity if he wins (for Keyshawn to fight him). There is. The opportunity to unite the title. BOKS with the upper rank About the fact that he wants the newly minted WBO champion in the lightweight category Keyshawn Davis fights Raymond Muratalla if he captures an empty IBF 135 lb.
“Two young rifles. You don’t have to wait and let it over -marinated, and he (Keyshawn) wins another title there. It could seduce the fight against tanks,” Bradley said, assuming Keyshawn will beat Muratall or will continue with a division weight .
“It’s a tank that works. The tank won’t wait for Muratall or something,” said Mark Kreigel. “The tank would be a favorite (via Keyshawn if you were fighting). We know more about him. He was more established, he was a long time, and he’s a bigger star and is a great fighter.
“Tank has never shown a desire to fight Devin Haney and Theophim. Where is he going? I think the logical place is Keyshawn,” Kriegel said.
Races are not interested
If the tank did not want to fight Haney or Theophim, why does Kriegel think that he will want to fight the massive Keyshawn Davis size of medium weight? Cannot be serious. The tank will not want to fight medium weight and should not.
Keyshawn must be where he belongs to 160, fighting Janibek Alimkhanuly and Hamzah Sheeraz. If he is as good as Top Rank thinks he is, you should have no problem with beating Janibek and Hamzah.
“From what you see with your eyes. I didn’t think he (keyshaw) would stop Berinchyk until I saw the first round and I saw that body, “Bradley said.
“Keyshawn was really hard to do what he did tonight because he fought against a unwanted ball. He realized it, solved it and quickly put in the lights,” Kriegel said, glazing Davis.
“What impressed me was Keyshawn’s physical strength with a way he could control the fight. He never allowed Berinchyk to get into his game, and that was a difference,” said Bernardo Suuna.
“On (Keyshawn) says,” I want Gervont “tank” Davis. It is the name he called, even when he was in Norfolk, Virginia (for his fight against Gustavo Lemos last November). I think this is a fight if he continues to fight as he did tonight, if the Davis tank does not decide to withdraw, “Suho said, sounding naive about how many opponents of Keyshawn were and how much a monstrously huge for a light division .
This is a race against time for Keyshawn and Top Rank, because they have to get that mega fight against Tank Davis almost immediately because he cannot continue to expel from medium weight to compete at 135.
If the tank decides not to fight Keyshawn soon, they will not be able to make 135 and will have to move to 154 or 160, where it should be now. Keyshawn will not last long for the fight against its size. It’s okay until he’s 135 years old, he fights for smaller guys, but in the middle category of his career he will not be over.
