Keyshawn Davis posted an image of him posing in a face-off together with his greatest buddy, Shakur Stevenson, in the present day on Instagram, asking followers if that’s a combat they need to see. WBC light-weight champion Shakur already mentioned this week that he would “by no means” combat Keyshawn for no sum of money.
The Photograph Op
Within the face-off, Keyshawn regarded like a BIG welterweight standing subsequent to the normal-sized light-weight, Stevenson. I don’t know the way Davis could make 135, as massive as he’s, however I perceive why he chooses to combat on this weight class. It’s straightforward pickings, given his large welterweight dimension.
Keyshawn (12-0, 8 KOs) is simply utilizing faux hype to get individuals speaking about him. He’ll combat subsequent month in opposition to WBO light-weight champion Denys Berinchyk on February 14th on the Hula Theater at Madison Sq. Backyard in New York. The occasion will probably be proven dwell on ESPN+. There’s no buzz in any respect about Davis’ combat in opposition to Berinchyk as a result of followers aren’t excited by it. Keyshawn picked the weakest hyperlink to combat for a world title as an alternative of exhibiting braveness and going after the opposite champions.
The Battle That Gained’t Occur
It’s too dangerous Keyshawn and Shakur gained’t combat as a result of it means there will probably be an undisputed light-weight champion whereas the 2 of the share the identical division and refuse to combine it up. That’s assuming that Keyshawn can seize the WBO title in opposition to Berinchyk as a result of if he loses that combat in opposition to the weakest hyperlink, he’ll by no means win a world title at 135. Keyshawn is already wanting huge for the light-weight division, like a real welterweight.
I can perceive the hustle on his half, draining right down to combat smaller guys at 135 quite than combating the place he ought to be at 147 in opposition to Jaron ‘Boots’ Ennis. Keyshawn wouldn’t stand an opportunity in opposition to Boots, and doubtless not one of the different belt-holders within the welterweight division both. He’s like a fish that may solely exist in sure waters. You’re taking the fish out of its habitat, and it could possibly’t exist. That’s Keyshawn to the T.
“That is what y’all need?” mentioned Keyshawn Davis on Instagram a couple of combat between him and his buddy, Shakur Stevenson.

The Berinchyk Problem
“On Valentine’s Day, I acquired no love. I’m going on the market and getting the knockout. Berinchyk, you’re a hell of a fighter,” mentioned Keyshawn Davis on his YouTube channel, speaking about his combat subsequent month on February 14th on ESPN+ in opposition to WBO light-weight champion Denys Berinchyk.
“I’m knocking him out. You already know what I’m doing. It’s going to be an important victory. ‘The Businessman.” Shout out to Berinchyk for giving me the chance, proper? He gave my the chance, the face of massive checks. We’re all going to stroll away completely happy. On February 14th, it’s taking place at MSG on the Hula Theater,” mentioned Davis.
