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

[daggum]

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.

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.

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?

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...

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.

[Groin Grabber]

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.

how did salido su-ck? he was literally ranked #2 by the ring when loma fought him. he had wins over guerrero ranked #2, cruz ranked #3, and juanma ranked #1. he then added a win over loma who went on to be #1 after losing to salido. this isnt the resume of someone who su-cks. this is the resume of a top guy which is what he was. yes he lost to marquez, gamboa, and mikey during this run but all those guys were top fighters. salido actually fought all the top guys and is punished for it while guys like tank never fight anyone and are heralded as greats. gross

He had already lost TWELVE TIMES when he met Loma. Not exactly elite. I’m sure you wouldn’t consider that.

[MONGOOSE66]

Loma got an ass whipping’ you say from Salido ???
Are you including the +80 nut shots or was that what lead you to believe he got an ass whipping’
Smfh

Yup! I’m including that.

[MulaKO]

Yup! I’m including that.

If you think that was an ass whippin’, not sure what to think

[QUOTE=Roj;n32423745]

The point is if Davis is all he’s bragging he is, he should want to fight and beat the guy who was unable to beat in the amateurs. There’s no bigger and more marketable fight than one against Cruz for Davis right now - natural storyline, established rivalry, Cruz’s current high ranking, etc. But we all know why Davis will continue to call for pipe dream fights he won’t get - Tank, Loma, etc. - and keeps talking down a Cruz fight in the pros. He knows he’ll lose to Cruz -again.[/QU

Its clear you know Cruz has nowhere to go other than WBO.
