Promoter Eddie Hearn wants to see how the Master WBO lithe weight Keyshawn Davis fights Andy Cruz and Shakur Stevenson Battle Gervonta Davis. The winners of these two fights would meet to decide who is the best dog at the age of 135.

This plan does not seem. First, Keyshawn (13-0, 9 KO) says he “He doesn’t fight for pennies. “I expect a lot of money and it won’t happen. He says that if the money is not at the age of 135, Andy Cruz will have to fight him at the age of 140 after his promotion. This is if the fight pays.

Keyshawna requirements

Cruz is not popular enough to offer more cake for this fight than what Keyshawn got against 13 No names He built his album. None of the Keyshawn warriors was well known. Cruz (5-0, 2 KO) is on the same boat. He also fought for an unclear opposition, and Hearn does not give him a lot of promotional pressure, just like with Shakur.

25 -year -old Davis recently won the lithe WBO title from Denys Berinchyk on February 14, knocking him down in the fourth round. After hydration in this fight he looked giant, overshadowing Berinchyk. Keyshawn looked like an hydrated average weight inside the ring that night. I don’t know how he ever brought weight.

“I would like to see Shakur Stevenson against Gervont Davis and Keyshawn Davis against Andy Cruz. The winners are fighting the winners – said Eddie Hearn Warrior.

“I want to fight Andy Cruz before I leave [up to 140]. I don’t fight him for pennies,– said Keyshawn about Shawn Porter YouTube Andy Cruz channel. “He doesn’t get money for this s ***,” Davis said when he said Cruz is a lithe champion of WBC Shakur Stevenson No. 1.

“I’m going to fight him [Cruz] I fought for the same amount of money. No, sir, “Keyshawn said that he is not willing to fight Andy Cruz for the same amount he earned for 13 other guys on whom he built his record.

So it is. Keyshawn will not fight Cruz before leaving the division 135 pounds. This is a good thing for him, because Cruz trained him as they fought four times with amateurs.

No money, no fight

“You have a Latin warrior [Andy Cruz]Whoever does not speak English is not from America. It is very tough to promote it. That is why we heard that the name Keyshawn dragged because there is no way to promote it specifically, because there are no connections with American networks or people who watch boxing [Note: Cruz fights on DAZN].

“That is why they associate everything [reminding fans Cruz holds 4-0 record against Davis]. Keyshawn is right. If he makes pennies [paying the same money as his past 13 opponents]It doesn’t make sense. Maybe you will have to attract it to 140]- said Porter.

“I agree. If it doesn’t earn, it doesn’t make senseKeyshawn said. “If we manage to earn a lot of money at 140 instead of 135, it must reach up to 140. I can throw away Canelo, and they say:” I don’t know. This kid Andy Cruz. This kid Andy Cruz beat you four times in amateurs. I just eliminated Canelo, vintage. I have to get it, ”Davis said.

Cruz defeated Keyshawn all the time when they fought in amateurs. It seems that Davis came up with a good excuse to tell the fans why Cruz will continue to avoid. Just tell the public that the fight does not pay. In this way, he can keep his undefeated record for longer.

Keyshawn told Porter’s channel that his promoters have someone who could fight next in the next rank. He wouldn’t say who it was, but a smile on his face suggested that he asked for which he asked Cruz’s “Pitbull” against Isaac. What will be the mismatch of size.

Hrgovic strongly disagreed and mocked Allen’s approach to the fight while discussing his opponent.

“Yes, that’s his loser mentality. That’s what he achieved throughout his career. That’s why he suffered 10 defeats and I suffered one defeat,” Hrgovic told iFL TV.

“It’s just an underdog mentality. I just take the pressure off myself like, ‘I’m a Doncaster boy.’ I’m here to fight the good fight. I don’t have to win. It puts pressure on him.”

“You know, it’s a loser’s mentality. So OK, I’ll take the pressure. I have to win. I’m a winner.

“He always had this mentality. ‘I’m fat. I don’t train. I don’t need to win. I’m tiny’. Come on, man. Don’t make excuses your whole life. Just train, be professional and go for the win.

“I expect him to be the best version of himself because this is a huge opportunity for him and it’s his hometown. I expect him to be in good shape.

“I think I’m definitely a tougher fight for him than Zhang. Zhang is aged, aged.

“I can also be fat if I don’t train and if I drink beer. I can be fat and be a journeyman and come to every fight and just say, ‘I don’t have to win.’ I’m here to fight the good fight. “

“I think I’m better. I’m faster. I’m better in all aspects of the fight. But you know, it’s heavyweight boxing. Anything can happen and he’s a brave guy. He always comes forward and steps up to the fight. So I think it’ll be a good fight.”

Hrgovic comes into the fight after a tough recent run that has included physical fights with Daniel Dubois, Joe Joyce and David Adeleye. He defeated Joyce and Adeleye after losing to Dubois, with both victories coming after tough rounds and bulky rallies.

The fight will be the main event of Saturday’s heavyweight gala in Doncaster.

If Oleksandr Usyk loses to Verhoeven, he will immediately be stripped of his world title

Oleksandr Usyk will immediately be stripped of world title if he loses to Verhoeven

The situation surrounding all of Oleksandr Usyk’s world champion titles has already been determined before his fight with kickboxer Rico Verhoeven.

The WBC controversially put its belt on the line before this fight, meaning that Verhoeven, despite having little or no chance of winning, could win the belt in May 23 in Egypt.

The WBA announced today that the fight will count as a successful world title defense if Usyk wins, but the challenger will not be able to claim the belt, even if it causes seismic shocks. If this happens, a committee will meet on next steps.

The IBF has taken a similar stance, but while Verhoeven cannot win that title either, the sanctioning body will immediately declare the heavyweight belt vacant if Usyk loses.

The conditions under which Usyk can fight to remain champion are as follows:

1. If Usyk loses on May 23, 2026, the IBF heavyweight title will be immediately declared vacant.

2. If Usyk wins on May 23, 2026, the IBF will recognize the WBC’s position in the rotation and will order an IBF mandatory fight for one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter.

3. If the WBA grants special permission, the IBF will recognize the WBA’s position in the rotation and order an IBF mandatory fight for one hundred and eighty (180) days thereafter.

4. The IBF reserves the right to change the mandatory deadline in the event of significant delays in the rotation.

After the fight with Verhoeven, Usyk will be ordered to face WBC mandatory Agit Kabayel, and promoter Frank Warren is sure that he will be stripped of the belt if he does not fulfill his obligation.
