Comments Thread For: Keyshawn Davis scored body shot KO against Denys Berinchyk, wins WBO lightweight title

[crimsonfalcon07]

So basically you are saying that Keyshawn isn’t going to fight Tank, Lomachenko, or Shakur Stevenson. And we know he is going to marinate Andy Cruz.

Doesn’t leave a whole of fights to look forward to.

Not for the next couple, and none of that has to do with Keyshawn. Tank needs to stop ducking everyone, Loma needs to decide if he's going to retire, and he'll be ordered to fight the winner of the interim fight between Muratalla and Abdullaev, and Shakur won't fight Keyshawn because they're friends.

For the WBO rankings, the aforementioned Muratalla and Abdullaev are 1 and 3. Sam Noakes is second, and #6 Pitbull Cruz just narrowly beat #5 Angel Fierro. I'd say the most likely next fight is Cruz or maybe Noakes, if Tank Davis runs and hides. Isaac Cruz would likely be the best money fight.

I'd like to see him fight Lindolfo Delgado, personally.

We'll find out. Not that we know how tough Cruz is. He's only got a handful of fights, none high enough level to tell us where he's at in the pros. Is Andy going to fight a tougher opponent than Keyshawn Davis in HIS next two fights? I can almost guarantee not.

Keyshawn will likely have to defend against a mandatory for one of those and Cruz isn't even ranked by the WBO. He's pursuing Tank, who likely won't fight him, Loma will have to fight the winner of Muratalla v Abdullaev, and Shakur won't fight him either. Since Cruz didn't even try to get ranked by the WBO, he probably isn't even allowed to fight him. At some point you ought to learn the rules...

Just answer me this: do you think Keyshawn is going to fight a tougher opponent than Andy Cruz in his next two fights? Or is he going to fight a lesser opponent than Andy Cruz in his next two fights?

Actually he never did at 130 either. You are probably referring to pedraza but he was ranked 6th by the ring at the time and even that was dubious since he just robbed edner cherry who wasn't even ranked himself. He saw pedraza as an easy cherry pick belt and he's been doing it ever since

I'm trying to give him as much credit for strength of opposition as possible. He's only ever fought champions in his own weight class at 130. After that there's nobody credible at all. He knows what he's doing and he doesn't care, is the point.

Ask him yourself if you dare. He said he was planning to retire at the end of the year. He explained his reasoning for it too. When has Tank ever cared about yours or anyone's opinions about his constant weak cherry picking? He hasn't fought a top opponent in his own division since he left 130. It's pretty obvious he doesn't care, as long as there's suckers willing to buy into his hype.

Why would Tank take a riskier fight when he is making plenty of money fighting cherrypicks?

He is just being a smart businessman, which you just admitted is your preference.

It's amazing how clear you make it with every post that you have no idea what the life of a prizefighter looks like. Yes, that's my preference, and my opinion is that it would be stup1d to do it now. Why are you so intent on having it now, rather than when they both have world titles? Bear in mind that if they do it now, Andy Cruz also is only entitled to a 25% split as challenger, rather than potentially an even split as a fellow titlist. Or maybe you don't think Cruz can win a world title?

It's especially laughable how much you're basing on his amateur career, but other times you give zero credence to amateurs. Which is it? You're also all over the place with how much you value the rankings of the alphabet organizations.

Who's a bigger fight for Andy Cruz? Why should he want to have a lower payday for that fight?

Andy Cruz beat Keyshawn in the Olympics and is highly ranked by 3 out of the 4 sanctioning organizations.

To you that’s not enough to deserve a fight though, you want Keyshawn to be a businessman instead and marinate.

Ok. That’s your preference then.
