Andy Cruz showed his reluctance to the terrifying way of “businessman” Keyshawn Davis deals with his career, telling his followers on X that the WBO Lightweight champion is not willing “Fight with anyone who can fight.”

Keyshawn is well maneuvered by his promoters in the highest rank because they want him to become a star, and if they put it in with Andy Cruz, he probably lost and wasted their investment. When he was with them, they did a good job from Edgar Berlang. The same with Shakur.

Tactics “scares”

#1 WBC 135-LB Cruz Cruz learns how hard it is to get the best fighters in a lightweight division to fight it. He was not lucky, encouraging his former enemy Keyshawna to fight him.

The last five opponents of Keyshawn

– Denyks Berinchyk
– Gustavo Lemos
– Miguel Madueno
– Jose Pedraza
– Nahir Albright

Cuban talent beat Keyshawna four times in amateurs and taught him in the Olympic finals in 2020 to capture the gold medal. Usually, fighters who leave the Olympic Games are ready to avenge their losses, but Keyshawn is an exception. He accepts the businessman’s approach to his career, carefully choosing the opposition and guided by warriors that pose a threat.

The Olympic gold medalist in 2020 Cruz (5-0, 2 KO) calls Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KO), trying to force him to agree with him, but he is not interested. He would prefer to face less threats, such as Denys Berinchyk and Gustavo Lemos.

Davis recently said that he was going to fight Andy Cruz before he reaches up to 140, but it doesn’t seem. Virfolk, Virginia Keyshawn, can remain one or two fights in it before he is forced to move to 140 due to its huge size.

Weight and wait

He looked like one of the zombies from maintaining weight during the last fight with the lightweight champion WBO Denys Berinchyk on February 14. After the hydration, he looked like average weight and crushed a much smaller Berinchyk in four rounds of its size more than anything else.

If one of those days Andy Cruz intends to fight Keyshawn, it will have to happen at 140 or more likely 147, because he will not face him at the age of 135.

Dana White & TKO to promote Canelo vs. Crawford: Will UFC achieve PPV for the “biggest fight” of boxing?

Image: Dana White & TKO to Promote Canelo vs. Crawford: Will UFC Reach Boost PPV for Boxing's "Biggest Fight"?

Turki Alalshikh confirmed today that Dana White will promote September 13 between Canelo Alvarez and Terenka Crawford together with TKO Boxing. Thanks to the range given through UFC, it can bring greater interest in fans, and PPV buys for it Great fight.

Canelo-Crawford PPV price debate

The platform for Canelo-Crawford has not been disclosed, as did the price of PPV. Canelo’s last fights with Edgar Berlang and Jaime Munguia were in the range of 70 USD. Given that Turki calls Canelo vs. Crawford “The biggest fight in boxing”, it is reasonable to assume that the price of PPV may be higher than Alvarez’s last fights, maybe even in the 1990s or $ 100.

It’s too high for this fight, because Crawford is not popular among mainstream fans. What’s more, the fight is perceived more in terms of money for the aging 35-year-old Canelo Alvarez and 40-person Buda Crawford.

Fans do not know how well Crawford will perform to have an idea of ​​whether it is worth taking 90 to 100 USD to buy an event, taking into account that he never fought at the age of 168 or even 160. The only thing that fans can go through is how Crawford fought, debuting in 154 last year. He looked feeble and vintage, endowed with Madrimov by results 115-113 x 3.

I got it for Madrimov 7-5 and I didn’t have a dog in this hunt. Crawford’s arrows were too feeble, and he ate his right hands from Madrimov, as if they were candy. He couldn’t get enough of these shots. Canelo-Crawford should really be an exhibition match, because the fans were cheated when Canelo defended themselves from a warrior from the 154-Funt division, Jermell Charlo in 2023.

Like Crawford, Jermell moved to two divisions, ignoring the ranking system to challenge the global Alvarez titles in 168. Jermell felt the power and ranking around the ring for 12 rounds while the fans got out.

Crawford age and performance problems

They both come out of destitute performances, in which they showed that they are not close to the top of their weight classes. Canelo looked at William Scull, lost to half a dozen of the best rivals. Crawford probably lost his last struggle Israil Madrimov, but received a dubious decision in August last year.

This fight showed that Crawford is too vintage and diminutive to beat the best fighters at the age of 154; That is why he quickly gave up the goal of attempting to break through the killers, such as Bakrham Murtazaliev, Edgar Berlanga and Vergil Ortiz to become unquestioned in the younger medium weight. Giving up this goal showed that Crawford knew that there was no chance to achieve it. He achieved his ceiling and the age takes control.

Ignoring the boxing ranking system

Many fans are alley in paying this kind of money, considering that this competition ignores a typical ranking system and meritocrat associated with a warrior tough to a world title. 37 -year -old Crawford never fought in Super Middle Wweight, he did not take 168, and jumps up two weight classes to get an immediate shot. It’s just a fight for money. Crawford will not win his title, and it is doubtful that he could, if he were forced to carry out a diminutive three -year glove.

At an advanced age of Crawford, chronic inaction and a diminutive frame, it is doubtful to defeat these three candidates to get the title shot against Canelo.

– Armando Resendiz
– Oslyys Iglesias
– Edgar Berlanga

Crawford is like an vintage car with 300,000 miles on the meter meter number of mileage at the moment of your career and can blow the gasket or connecting rod. You can’t love him in this fight because it goes straight to the so -called top. Although I see Canelo as #7 in the Super Middle Wweight division, he is still too large and sturdy for Crawford.

“My brother Dana [White] It will promote this fight. This is the fight of the Riyadh season and we have a contract with TKO to promote it. It will be the biggest fight in boxing, and tomorrow I think I will tell the details, platform and place of this fight, me and Dana, “said Turki Alalshikh X About the fight of Canelo Alvarez vs. Terenca Crawford.

Understanding the threads: Kelvin Davis, Mark Jeffers and much more!

Image: Kelvin Davis Offers Apology for Brothers Keyshawn and Keon's Altercation with Nahir Albright

Albright will destroy the heritage of Davis, Hemphill stunns Jeffers and Simpson is experiencing Zucco fear at the weekend of chaos

Ezechiel King: Nahir Albright Def. Kelvin Davis

Certainly the fight, which caused the greatest drama over the weekend, was the hostile Keyshawn Davis, Nahira Albright, returned from almost two years of release to overcome the oldest brother Keyshawn, Kelvin. Kelvin Davis hit Albright, wearing a five -inch advantage, but he rarely used it during the fight. The Albright game plan was clear from the very beginning: JAB His path as Davis and his right hand.

In the second round, it was perfectly managed, initiating the knees of a larger man and dropping him into the following fury, although the judge ruled. The fight became more and more physical than that moment, because Kelvin held and tried to intimidate Albright against the lines when they gathered, although Albright was more successful, finding a place for his shots in the middle. All this served to make Davis’s crime hard, because he was moved to the average of four power, he hits the round.

Davis has become powerful in the last three rounds, landing in seventh place in seventh power, when the pace became crazy, but the damage was caused. Albright Outlande and hurt Davis several times, making the decision of the majority in the territory of the enemy. For Davis it was quite a terrifying result, because all his flaws began to cost him his undefeated album in his hometown. The resulting drama will probably also have consequences for his brothers.

On the other hand, Albright reached a successful return to Pro Ranks, rejecting him an undefeated perspective in the recent weight class and potentially establishes a rematch with the former champion Keyshawn Davis.

Sean Hemphill def. Mark Jeffers

Heading through the pond to Yorkshire, a pretender to the super weight of IBF, Mark Jeffers, lost “O” with American Sean Hemphill, even though he was a substantial favorite -1000. Jeffers pushed the pace early, while Hemphill was pleased that he would sit and collect his arrows. The overturning changed in the fourth round, when Hemphill decided to stand on the ground and a fight with Jeffer.

No warrior had a problem with landing on his man during the whole fight. When he developed, Hemphill began to look like a more complete warrior – he willingly stands and trades or gives earth – and showed better variety in his shots. Although Jeffers could land cleanly, it was often a cost of two or three blows landed for Hemphill. The fight became really exhausting when she wore, both men feel the pace and damage, but again the American simply adapted better.

Mark Jeffers simply turned out to be a little too united in this fight and was summarized by a guy he was about to beat on paper. In my opinion, this is a symptom of turning your tires a little too long, because Jeffers simply did not raise levels, as it probably liked. Meanwhile, for Sean Hemphilla it can be a bit of a breakthrough, because Jeffers is by far the best warrior he beat, and the division remains relatively slim.

Close to Miss: Callum Simpson Def. Ivan Zucco

Stopping in super medium weight and in Yorkshire, the local hero of Callum Simpson received some fear by the invincible Italian boxer Ivan Zucco. Simpson, a much larger and better man, entered the immaculate 1-2 from Southpaw Zucco, just a few seconds into the competition-for the first time he was knocked in his career for the first time.

Simpson tried to prove that it was FUKS, pressing Zucco into a rope many times, as long as the Italian repeated his feat, dropping Simpson after the second time, when a larger man was promoted to him. Simpson did not look particularly damaged after any of them, but both were immaculate.

However, this is where the fun stopped for Zucco, because the man from Yorkshire fought him for the ropes for most of the remaining fight, and Zucco from time to time finds success outside the third round. It is approaching tenth tenth, when Simpson passed Zucco three times before the Italian corner called him resignation.

Simpson managed to stop in front of his hometown; In this fight, however, there were some really disturbing signs, especially for someone who struggles with such as Hamzah Sheeraz. For Ivan Zucco he strongly exceeded his expectations, but I would be shocked if he had ever left the European level, because he was simply too miniature and he lacked power.

Why the Shakur Stevenson defense style may failed against the aggressive William Zepeda

Published

Image: Why Shakur Stevenson's Defensive Style May Fail Against Aggressive William Zepeda

Shakur Stevenson says he is going to “Set a statement” Against William Zepeda in the fight against Karda next month on July 12 at Queens, Up-to-date York. Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) seems to be annoyed by his followers on X, who rejects his talent, predicting that he will lose with Zepeda (33-0, 27 KO).

Fans doubt Shakura’s talent

Nobody treats Shakur seriously because they watched his fights and perceived him as physically feeble and not designed to compete at the highest levels at the age of 135. Stevenson’s element took place when he competed in a featherweight and his lack of power was not a problem.

“A friend, what you are talking about at July 12 X about his defense of the title against William Zeda.

It sounds like Ego Stevenson distorts himself from his promoters, Josh Padley, Artem Harutyunyan and Shuichiro Yoshino, feeding him. Shakur’s scaleing and made him think he could walk on the water.

This is a problem with promoters who want to create false fighters for marketing purposes. Narcissus creates who think they are good and then press their promoters to bet them against the fighters that they are unable to defeat. This is Milli vanilla syndrome. Shakur is a great example

“I think it’s a perfect style. He places people. He introduces people in fights in which they don’t want to be, and I will give him something he is not ready for, “said Shakur Stevenson Boxing TalkSport. “What I heard was a fight with a tank,” Shakur said asked if he heard Alalshikh from Turk, where he would win him over Zepedy. “

Zepeda: Style Clash for Shakur

I would not call Zepeda style “perfect” for airy with glass hands, such as Shakur. This is the worst style for someone who has no attack and is basically only a defensive applicant. We saw Zepeda twice defeated the better version of Shakur in her two fights of Farmer Tevin. He fights similarly to Shakur, but with greater power and better chin.

The farmer could not ponderous down Zepeda and was forced to move and stick to survive. In their rematch, the farmer looked like he gave up when he turned twice from the early rounds when he was driven. It seemed that the farmer gave up. If he could not cope with the power of Zepeda’s fire without holding and running, Stevenson does not either

“I think that if the tank wins his fight [Lamont Roach rematch]And I win the fight with Zepeda, it’s me vs. Tank, “said Stevenson.

Whoever planted this idea in Shakur’s head that the next is the fight against the tank, they told him wrong. This fight is not guaranteed. The only way it will happen is that Davis will offer money loads, and it is doubtful if Turks Alalshikh would like to do it. Shakur is not popular enough to be profitable.

Tank davis fight hopes

“Because it is a side A, it is a superstar. I am also a superstar, but he is a PPV super -star. Then he can say who he will be and who he will not fight,” said Shakur about why he never fought the tank.

“I think I am one of the names of someone he will not fight. I hope that we can close him and imprison him in a place where there is no choice. Because I am the best,” said Shakur, asked why he thinks that Tank Davis does not want to fight him.

Gervont is not afraid of Stevenson. Untertil, there was no zero reason why the Baltimore native fought with someone like him. Shakur has never been popular and his fights are terribly uninteresting. Although he boasts of being the best, his performances do not fulfill this and is still not a warrior with a view of the sight. He fights on the basics.

Stevenson is another egocentric, like Keyshawn Davis. He doesn’t like to fight guys who are moving all the time and will try to win by doing the minimum. Shakur will try to move the rounds, hitting, and then back back 3 to 6 feet to avoid hit.

Tank does not see the need to fight someone he will have to chase, because he can earn good money by fighting guys who will stand on them. It makes sense. Why fight Stevenson, if he can face others who come to fight?

“I think he likes fights in which he knows that he will win. I think it was his fall in his last fight. He was too confident and he felt like he had an straightforward blow. I think I’m above him,” Shakir said about Gervont.

Shakur may never have the opportunity to fight Tank Davis, because there is a great possibility that he lost from Zepeda next month. We saw evil Stevenson acted in his fights with Edwin de Los Santos and Jeremia Nakathila.

In both fights he was in the process of full 12 rounds and booed strongly by fans. These two fights have shown that Stevenson is not cut out for the competition with the punchare. Zepeda can hit, quit many shots and is not afraid to go through the fire.
