        Lemos proved he can fight and bring uncomfortable pressure. I like Keyshawn but he might not hit hard enough to stop Lemos coming in - but Davis is a multidimensional fighter and was an excellent amateur.

        This is a sink or swim fight for Davis and reminds me of Anderson Bakole. Lemos is probably the smart bet in this one...

          Sheesh Mason's 5th fight this year. They won't be able to simply ignore the young bull much longer..

            I have a feeling that unlike Anderson, Keyshawn is going to swim. He's simply better than Lemos , besides, Keyshawn has major star potential, he's not getting thrown to the wolves like Anderson was.

              Kudos to Davis for accepting such a tough step-up fight this early. Win or lose, he has my respect. Lemos is a hard man. I thought he beat Hitchins last time out. If Davis can beat Lemos, he's the real deal.
              As for Norman, too bad the Ennis fight didn't come through. Cuevas has an impressive record at first glance, but really hasn't fought anybody and is an undeserving challenger, in my opinion.

                Yeah, I'd like to see more of Norman in any type of fight before I can conclude he passes the eye test for me. Doesn't bother me the Ennis fight didn't happen. Plenty of time for that. Asking for a retirement check this early don't impress me that much. Not valuing the opportunity for another title plus the potential of earning more is sadly disappointing to see in this sport.

                  These fighters haven't learned anything from the Hitchinson vs Lemos fight. This is one fight where Keyshawn may have bitten off more than he can chew.
                  Lemos is a gladiator in the ring, who applies constant pressure on his opponent until they crack. Hitchinson was able to survive Lemos' onslaught, keyshawn might not be able to. Cuevas vs Norman could very well turn into a real live firefight, and the rest of the fight card just looks to be competitively matched. This looks on paper to be one hell of a fight night for the fighters, and the fight fans.

                    Mason is marching towards a title fight, and he's doing it at a double time (quick) pace. Mason is CCC: colo, calm, and collected, mature beyond his years, laser focused, and is ready to be tested against the best fighters in the division. If he continues his winning streak, he'll be fighting for a championship belt in 2025.
