Saturday’s fight with Keyshawn Davis and Edwin de Los Santos was officially canceled after Keyshawn did not reach weight on Friday and was deprived of his lithe WBO title. Davis (13-0, 9 KO) weighed 139.3 pounds, i.e. 4.3 pounds above the limit of 135 pounds.
Abdullah Mason Modern Headliner
The fight of Abdullah Mason with Jeremia Nakathila will be moved to the place to Headliner on Saturday evening to save the show to the Scope Arena in Norfolk, Virginia. Mason has an invigorating combat style that makes him a perfect substitute for Keyshawn. When entering the fight, some fans perceived him as a worthy main header over Keyshawn.
Incorrect lithe pretender No. 2 WBO, Mason (18-0, 16 KO) comes from Ohio. This is not perfect to be the main event. However, the brothers Keyshawn, Kelvin and Keon Davis, are still on the card, and this will satisfy the crowd of Norfolk. Given that the Saturday event is shown at ESPN and ESPN+.
Keyshawn accepted a lot of criticism from fans for the missing weight. Many of them believe that he intentionally came to overweight to gain an advantage over the demanding punchating of Southpaw de los Santos (16-2, 14 KO).
What rejected the fans was Davis said that he was going to be his last fight at the age of 135 and that he moved to 140. In addition, he did not have the physical appearance of a warrior who pressed on the weight.
Davis: Miss unprofessional weight
“You should make a weight. Why did you sign a contract for 135 and placed the title on the line if you knew that you were not going to start?” Tim Bradley said WarriorResponding to Keyhawn Davis, who does not earn weight today.
Davis has never left his weight before during his tiny four -year professional career. In his last three fights he seemed to be bigger and looked like a weight class.
“It’s very unprofessional. You should do this weight. If you crawl on all fours to the scale, I say:” Damn, he tried to endure weight, but it was too much for him. ” But he didn’t crash on the scales at all, “Bradley said about Keyshawn.
Keyshawna size
The difference in size between Keyshawn and De Los Santos was noticeable during the last press conference on Thursday. After looking at Keyshawn, it could be said that it did not seem that he even began to take off the weight. However, de los Santos looked out of skin and skeletal.
“He is a immense 135-pound and was all his [4-year] career. However, he was busy, “Bradley said about Keyshawn. “It’s not like he was sitting for two years. He went from the camp to the camp. He should be able to bring this weight or get closer to this weight.”
Considering that Davis was already planning to leave a slight division, there was no reason for him to go through the bell, to go down to 135. However, if it was intended, he did not understand that the fight could be canceled.
“Four pounds are embarrassment, an senior. One pound, I understand. I understand some ounces, maybe even two pounds. But three pounds, four pounds and no, no. It’s not professional, senior. It’s bad and it’s unfortunate. Shame, shame, keyhawn. You dropped the ball here,” said Bradley.
Ego led Davis to failure
Lack of 4.3 pounds makes Keyshawn look bad. Is it on his part that prompted him to understand the response of fans? It can be. He seems to be a narcissus, and his victory over a cushioned opposition, which fed the highest rank, seemed to come to his head.
The main card starts at 13:30 ET live in Dazn, and walks with the Ring of the Main Event are expected around 16:30 ET.
Nelson Hysa def. Patrick Korte – KO2
Total mismatch. Hysa sentenced the corta from the opening bell, landing hefty hooks and tearing her head with each neat shot. Kortte knee for the first time after eating a pair of brutal right hands, and then barely survived the round. Hysa returned and finished work in the second – another knocking out, another dam, and the corta was completed. No response, without resistance, only one -sided beating.
Billy Adams Def. Alexander Morales-Punkty (40-36)
Adams boxed around Morales and did not lose a second. Delicate left on his feet, mixed the levels and cleaned his shots. Morales tried to close the gap, but he never put a glove on it.

Sam Gilley vs. Gideon onyenani-Draw (76-76)
Gilley could not cope with the pressure and looked lost in the trenches. Onyenani took him inside, turned him into a fight on a telephone boat and never let him comfortably. Gilley tried to hurt, but persecuted in survival mode. Ugly fight, truthful result?
UMAR Khan def. Moises Garcia-One-Wykna Decision (79–72)

Jack Williams Def. Fernando Joaquin Valdez-Punkty (40-36)

Valdez consumed blows, but he was not a real threat. Williams drove through all four rounds, barely touched and pierced the neat sweeping without sweat.
Winch kept him neat, keen and all companies from the opening bell. She bitten, turned and closed Dvorakov, without taking risks. The Czech warrior tried to force a fight, but he never passed the front door. Pure control – each round, every second.
