VBO Light Champion Keishavn Davis (13-0, 9 Kos) will defend against the inactive # 13-ranked Edvin de Los Santosa 7. June at ESPN in Norfolk, Virginia.
Yesterday was reported that De Los Santos (16-2, 14 Kos) refused an offer and that Keishawn moved on. Now the fight is done. Probably negotiating games that we rarely see De Los Santos to agree on the price.
Sneaky strategy
When De Los Santos actively fought for many years ago, was a great fighter. He knocked Jose ‘Raya Valenzuela and defeated Joseph Adorn. However, Edwin lost from Shakur Stevenson and William Foster III. You defeat were red flags that De Los Santos was not a real deal.
Match Keishawn against De Los Santos instead of one of the active talents, like Andy Cruz, is a cunning move because there is not much risk.
Risk of glass jaw
He has the power of hitting, which is Kryptonite Keishavn. We saw the Olympic medalist 2020. years Davis Davis, Nahir Albright 2023. years, and since then it is a bad experience, the top rank has very carefully harmonized him. Keishavn has a glass jaw. So if Ring-Rusty de Los Santos can land one of their big shots on it, he will sleep, and the upper rank will need to put it on another renovation job.
What are the reasons for the selected reasons for Los Santos?
- Comparison of purpose: Shakur Stevenson won her last fight in his last fight. So if Keishawn has a better job than him, it gives him a popularity. Fans who do not pay attention to dates and inactivity will not be aware that Strevenson’s fight held two years ago and that De Los Santos has not been fighting since then.
- Verify Keishavn wins: What is the better way to make sure Davis wins than to choose an inactive fighter that releases the loss? It’s perfect.
- Let Davis look great: The fight against the inactive guy is a great way to make Keishavn looks like a 24K gold.
Mike Coppinger broke the news from Keishavn against the fight against de los Santos, which was set for 7. June. De Los Santos didn’t fight in two years From its 12-round unanimous loss of decisions Shakur Stevenson 16. November 2023. years.
Two years out
An obvious question, why is an inactive fighter who did not fight at age and dismiss loss that was chosen at a premium rank for the first title of his VBO Teenager? If the idea is to make Davis look better than it is, it makes sense de los santos, but it doesn’t look logical differently.
The idea behind the champion that brings the defense is to choose valuable candiders. When a guy releases the loss and two-year layoff, he makes the impression that the fighter is chosen to ensure that the champion can hold the strap.
Saints are ranked bottom These candidates:
– Raymond Muratalla
