Keyshawn Davis spent a lot of immediately’s last press convention calling out Abdullah Mason fairly than speaking about his title protection of his WBO light-weight belt towards Edwin De Los Santos on Saturday evening, June seventh, on the Scope Area in Norfolk, Virginia.
You can inform how Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KOs) was displaying little curiosity within the De Los Santos (16-2, 14 KOs) battle that he’s not enthusiastic about this conflict. He’s the one who chosen De Los Santos, similar to he was the one who picked Gustavo Lemos, 36-year-old Jose Pedraza, and Denys Berinchyk.
Davis vs. De Los Santos will likely be proven on ESPN, ESPN Deportes, and ESPN+ this Saturday. The principle card begins at 10:00 p.m. ET / 7:00 p.m. PT.
Keyshawn’s Knockout Probabilities
“I’m able to battle and knock De Los Santos out. I like his vitality, however what it’s actually all about is whenever you get within the ring and what you’re actually going to do,” mentioned Keyshawn Davis to Fighthype after the ultimate press convention immediately for his title protection towards Edwin De Los Santos on Saturday evening.
It’s uncertain that Keyshawn will knock out De Los Santos as a result of he’s not small, sluggish, previous, and weight drained like his current opponents. For Keyshawn to have any shot at knocking out De Los Santos, he’ll have to put his chin on the road by opening himself as much as getting hit by his large left fingers. He’s not going to do this as soon as he tastes his energy for the primary time on Saturday.
“You understand what I do. He’s going to get knocked out. Don’t fear about that. I fought a man on steroids. So, if he’s not coming with that, he’s doomed.
“Frank [Martin] is comfortable. Tank uncovered him. Tank was doing something to him throughout your entire weigh-ins and press conferences,” mentioned Davis.
Martin hasn’t fought since being knocked out by Gervonta Davis. So, he shouldn’t even be a dialog subject for Keyshawn. The true query is, why isn’t he speaking about desirous to battle Raymond Muratalla or Andy Cruz?
Obsessed With Teofimo
“So, I don’t need to enroll in a battle realizing I’m about to bully this child. I need a problem. I need somebody who is basically going to battle me. And, I really feel that who actually goes to battle me is Teofimo. What occurred was Turki put me and Teo on the telephone, and he stored complaining about not preventing me as a substitute of preventing Boots.
“Turki mentioned, ‘Why are you complaining about not preventing Boots for? You bought Keyshawn proper right here making an attempt to battle you’ for a similar amount of cash he’s going to get to battle Boots. So, he simply don’t need to battle me for some motive. Scared, no matter.
“I don’t know. However Teo actually don’t need to battle me. I really feel like a scared fighter is thie greatest fighter. So, I’m going to go in there on my P’s and Q’s once I battle Teo,” mentioned Davis.
Keyshawn is beginning to sound obsessive about preventing Teofimo. He must give attention to the fights he truly can get as a substitute of pining away like a love-sick individual for a conflict which will by no means occur.
Why Keep away from Andy Cruz?
What Davis ought to do is attempt to avenge his 4 losses to Cuban Andy Cruz as a result of he appears weak for selecting to not battle him. He talks about Teofimo being scared, however he’s a hypocrite as a result of he’s afraid to battle Cruz. Davis’ nickname, ‘The Businessman,’ tells you all you could find out about what he’s all about. He’s a 100% faux.
“I used to be at 146 this complete camp. I do need to transfer as much as 140 as a result of I don’t need to make 140 anymore, however I can nonetheless make 135,” mentioned Keyshawn.
If Davis strikes as much as 140, he can be pressured to battle Gary Antuanne Russell, Subriel Matias, and Richardson Hitchins. These are powerful fights for Keyshawn, who was staggered by Nahir Albright, and hasn’t fought a superb opponent since.
If Davis strikes as much as mild welterweight, considering he’s going to get a battle towards Teofimo, it might by no means occur, and he can be pressured to battle Russell, Hitchins, and Matias. One or all three of these fighters may beat him.
