Hearn demands Keyshawn Davis face to face Cruz: “No other options” for the WBO Lightweight master

7 hours agoon

Promoter Eddie Hearn says he wants to fight between the unbeaten Andy Cruz and the featherlight champion WBO Keyshawn Davis. Promoter Matchroom, Hearn, states that Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KO) has no one who is available to fight outside his nemesis, Cruz (5-0, 2 KO).

Keyshawn won the WBO 135-pound belt last month, knocking out the master of Denys Berinchyk in the fourth round of February 14 at Madison Square Garden in Fresh York. Although Davis talked about how to be a novel WBO champion will change his life in terms of great fights on his knees, how Isaac “Pitbull” CruzIt didn’t happen.
While the highest rank will not be a vast enough offer to lure Pitbull, there is no sufficiently popular enough to fight for Keyshawn. Maybe he doesn’t care. He never fought with the popular one since he changed the professional and spent most of his time talking about what life would look like when he defeats Gervont Davis one day. He always dreams.
Keyshawn does not want to build to fight the tank, aimed at the highest quality talents. He just wants to fight for a silver plate based on his wins on a lower level fighters.
Andy Cruz Fight
The most realistic struggle for Keyshawna is Andy Cruz, his four -time winner, but he will have to show courage because he did not want to fight the talented Cuban, because he became a professional in 2023. Cruz called him from the first day without happiness, and there is no other way to look at Keyshawn’s reluctance.
He was killed four times in amateurs by Cruz and realizes that he has never defeated him, no matter how substantial he is. Keyshawn looks like it will soon be an average weight because it is huge after he irrigates his fights. During the last fight with the petite 36-year-old Berinchyk resembled a younger average weight at night.
Penniless Berinchyk never had a chance for such a substantial guy. It is a pity that all four sanctioning bodies do not have a 10-pound hydration clause, such as IBF, because it prevents fighters who fight persecutors.
Cruz takes #1 wbc, #3 ibf, #3 wba and #9 wbo. Interestingly, Hearn does not press WBC Lightweight Shakur Stevenson to fight Cruz, but this is understandable. Hearn tries to determine the fight of Gervont Davis for Shakur, and the last thing he needs is that Andy Cruz beat him before he fights.
Eddi’s push
“We want to push Andy Cruz to a great fight.
“It’s also a great fight,” Hearn said that Floyd Schofield is an option for Andy Cruz. “Schofield missed the fight Shakur Stevenson. [Cruz] A little earlier.
“Of course he fought in January [against Omar Salcido]. May or June would be good for Andy – said Hearn.
Floyd Schofield would probably not like to fight Andy Cruz because he must know that Shakur Stevenson will finally look at his path and throw him bone. He will not want to spoil his chances of paying against Shakur, fighting Cruz and learning.

Does Shakur Stevenson apply Teofimo Lopez next to him to avoid Andy Cruz and Jadier Herrera?

Shakur Stevenson is now pushing the WBO champion 140-Funting Teofimo Lopez for fighting, saying that he will follow a lithe welterweight weight to challenge him by his belt.
(Loan: Amanda Westcott)
This seems quite obvious for fans of WBC Lightweight Champion Stevenson (23-0, 11 KO) does this to avoid your compulsory No. 1, Andy Cruzwho breathes to his neck, and the artist #10 knockout Herrera Core.
Both of these Cuban talents want a shot against Shakur at the age of 135, but tries to run to the league 140 pounds to fight the WBO Teofimo Lopez welterweight champion. What does this say about Newark, from Modern Jersey Stevenson? It seems that Shakur does not like the heat, which is applied on it by these were Cuban amateur talents and wants to escape.
“What are you fighting with me, teo? Let’s assume that we both do business with the same people 🤫 I’m going 140 for it,” said Shakur Stevenson X.
Physical mismatch
Teofimo is too substantial and powerful for Shakur Stevenson. We just saw him struggling with an electrician Josh Padley Last month, not showing any power and barely able to bring out a part -time boxer in the ninth round of February 22.
Shakura’s opposition was embarrassing since his fight against Edwin de Los Santos in 2023. In the previous fight of Stevenson before Padley he fought Arty Harutyunyan, a warrior who lost Frank Martin and a one -year release.
Physically, Shakur is not built to fight such guys such as Teofimo Lopez or anyone with decent power at the age of 140. If you put him with Teo, Gary Antuanne Russell or Richardson Hitchins, it’s bad for him.
Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearna’s dreams Apply a great fight with Gervont Davis. He would have no other choice but to drop Shakur, because he does not intend to sign him again for high-priced Anthony Joshu in four fights. It won’t work anyway, because boxing The audience is not complete fools.
If Shakur moves to 140, his problems are solved. He does not have to worry about Cruz and Herrera, because the 15 best WBO rankings at 140 are delicate when you go outside Teofimo and Arnold Barboza Jr.

The signing of Baumgardner (15-1, 7 KO) further proves that Paula’s promotional company is still very interested in the development and development of women’s boxing. MVP recently signed Amanda Serrano for the lifetime of a contract in which the world champion of seven will become the chairwoman of MVP’s boxing initiatives when he decides to retire with the competition.
“I’ve always believed in setting up, and signing a contract with MVP is another great move on this journey,” said 30 -year -old Baumgardner in a statement for ESPN. “MVP has proven that they are leaders in women’s boxing, creating the greatest opportunities for fighters like me. This partnership is a natural fit-not only for my career, but for influence on sport. The future has become even greater.”
After spraining professionals in 2017, Baumgardner exploded on the stage when she knocked out Terri Harper for Junior Lightweight Title WBC Women’s Junior Lightweight in November 2021. It fails (IBF) and Elhem Mekhaled (WBA).
“MVP strategically builds a list of fighters who deliver in both the ring and outside the ring, and we are glad that we can welcome Alycia in the family as our latest women’s world champion,” said Jake Paul and Bidarian, co-founders of the most valuable promotions in a statement for ESPN. “Alycia is one of the most vital athletes in combat sport, and signing it is a meaningful achievement for our promotion, because we now have exclusive reports from 2 of the 5 best boxers in the world. We are looking forward to the debut of MVP Alyic and actively assess the right time and event for returning to the ring.”
Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano, at the forefront of the boxing event in Madison Square Garden on July 11, seems to be the right time for the boxer of women from pounds for ESPN pounds that debuted with a promotional one. MVP has not confirmed or denied from ESPN that Baumgardner would be presented on this combat card.
Baumgardner was recently in action in September 2024, when she placed her undisputed title on the line against Delfine Persioon. The fight was recognized as the lack of a competition after the start of the head opened the cut over the right eye of Person and made him unable to continue. Earlier, Baumgardner performed her first unquestioned younger slight defense with a lithe title against Christina Linardatou in July 2023. It was a rematch of their meeting in 2018, in which Linardatou won the divided decision. Baumgardner multiplied the loss of a unanimous decision, but was involved in controversy when her sample of July 12 positively tested the forbidden substance. However, Baumgardner I denied any use forbidden substance. With her samples of June 16 and July 16 returning to cleaning and precise investigation, she was cleaned by WBC of all offenses and raised her momentary suspension.

Baked fans PPV Canelo-Scull card, citing “Munguy” rematch and penniless support attacks
Published

March 18, 2025
Undercard for Canelo Alvarez, the undisputed super-medium weight, with the IBF belt owner William Scull, was announced on May 3, and fans in social media are not enthusiastic about the fighting on the PPV card. They expected better.
In the factor, Jaime MungiaFresh from the loss of knockout, faces Bruno Surace In a rematch to avenge your embarrassing defeat of the sixth round in December last year. This is a decent fight, but it is more a match that would be better set lower on the card.
Cardinal problems
You can argue that the whole pad should be completely scrapped because there is no engaging fight. Take a immense broom, sweep Undercard As a whole and start again.
The ring revealed This is Undercard Canelo-Scull:
– Jaime Mungia vs Bruno Surace 2
– –
– Badou Jack vs Ryan Rozicki
– Marco vs Michel Polina
– Brayan Leon vs Aaron Guerrero
Munguia-Surece 2 and Bakole-Zagba are semi-troops preliminary card fights, But everything after that is not attractive matches.
It would be better to match Munguia to one of the best super -medium weight Oslyys Iglesias In the fight of the sink or or breaking. It would be much more engaging than restoring Mungui from Surace, because he will probably win a rematch.
In December last year it was sloppy, designed to develop Mungui back to the rematch with Canelo, which would be another delicate fight for fans. At least by inserting Mungui with Iglesias, he was once finished, and fans could see someone with real talent, not a warrior artificially created with a delicate record through their entire career. Mungia is maneuvered for a rematch from Canelo. This is the purpose of Munguia to place at the place of cooperation.
The whole Munguia career was quite well managed. There are no real winnings that you can talk about, and his promoters did a lot of careful to avoid beating him. With the way he was matched, it is basically like another Edgar Berlanga.
1-2 record
Before the little -known Bruno Surace destroyed Munguia, he lost to Canelo Alvarez in May last year by unanimous decision. It seemed that Canelo made Munguia easier, remaining in the second gear and without pressing the knockout when he could certainly abandon him on the fourth.
Munguia’s 12-year professional wins took place John Ryder, Sergiy Derevyanchenko and Erik Bazinyan. This is not entirely a row of murderers.
Surace (26-0-2, 5 KO) destroyed Mungia in front of fans in Tijuana in Mexico, December 14. Mungia (44-2, 35 KO) has a super-average weight 1-2 record In its last three fights, which shows that he does not belong to the place of cooperation.
310 pounds
Martin Bakole (21-2, 16 Kos), a pretender for heavyweight, leaves Joseph Parker in the second round of February 22 in Riyadh and looked terrible in this fight. He entered the competition, taking 310 pounds and was not physically enough to compete with a warrior like Parker.
Efe Ajagba (20-1, 14, Kos) did little since the beating of Frank Sanchez in 2021. Ajagba won his last five fights, but against less opposition. He looked narrow in each of these fights.
History in creating 🥊tee terrible fury – Canelo vs. Scull lands in riyadh 🇸🇦
For the first time, Canelo defends her undisputed crown outside the USA and Mexico … he can’t miss it 💪
