It is now officially that Keyshawn Davis will defend Live on Espn On Saturday, June 7, in Davis’s birthplace in Norfolk, Virginia. On UnderCard, Keyshawn’s Brothers, Keon and Kelvin Davis will be seen. The event will be shown on ESPN and ESPN+, starting at 10:00 pm Each time/7:00 pm.

Inactive competitor

There are some questions about the reason for choosing De Los Santos (16-2, 14 KOS) as a competitor to Keyshawn to fight in the first defense of his belt. De Los Santos has three strikes against him:

1. Inactive for two years = rusty ring
2. He lost his last battle
3. It is not known to the informal masses

It was better for the fans if Top Rank had a bullet and used Andy Cruz or Raymond Muratalla as Keyshawn opponent for the June 7 card. If he will lose in front of one of them, at least the first rank will know what he got in it and he will be in favor of the other fighters. The last higher rank needs is a fighter who must protect him by soft success to keep his head over the water.

The main battles were already leaked on the Davis de Santos card on June 7. Therefore, today’s announcement by Top Rank confirms only what hard -line boxing fans know.

Mason “step”?

In the common feature, lightweight Abdullah Mason (18-0, 16 Cos) Battles Jeremiah Nakathly (26-4, 21 Cos) in 10 sensors. This is supposed to be a step up to Mason, 21 years old, but it is more than the side of the type of opposition he faces.

Raymond Moratala and Ernesto Mercado detonated 35 -year -old Nakathle in two rounds. He was also beaten properly by Shakour Stevenson. Nakathila won the last three battles, albeit against low -level opposition.

It seems that the first rank is still cautious against taking opportunities with Mason after watching it being dropped twice last November by Johan Vasquiz. This was a battle that showed what some people suspected in Abdullah. He has a chin problem You cannot take a punch. However, his position with Nakathilia carries a certain amount of risks, as the veteran has equal strength with Yohan, and if Mason holds anything difficult, it is possible that it will drop it.

The light competitor wanted to be offered to the battle against Abdullah, Floyd Chaufield, $ 2.5 million, a kind of money that competitors get against the popular world champions. Mason is not.
