Lightweights Abdullah Mason and Keyshawn Davis are the latest brand ambassadors for the ring. Fans now hope for Turki Alalshikh to set up a fight between them before Keyshawn (13-0, 9 COs) outgrow the weight class.
#4 WBC and #8 WBO, Mason (18-0, 16 food) and Keyshawn are both promoted by the top rank. It would be an easy battle to feed. Of course, they will keep them apart to have two separate revenue streams, but now that they are brand ambassadors for Turki magazine, it will be an ideal match to set up one of his Riyadh season meetings.
Who cuts first?
Mason, 21, was still not tested against opposition at the world class level during his short four-year-old pro career, but also not Keyshawn. He avoided Andy Cruz and did not show much ambition To also fight against Raymond Muratalla. We know that Keyshawn calls himself ‘the businessman’, but come, when will he take a risk? Did the fourth loss of Cuban Talent Andy Cruz Mess Keyshawn sustained so bad, where he is afraid to act? This is where Turki has to walk in and give him an offer that he cannot refuse.
Although KeyShawn Gervonta Davis and Vasily Lomachenko cried out, it’s more about wanting the pay days, rather than believing he can beat one of the guys. Turki using his draw to fight Mason and Keyshawn would be an excellent battle to head one of his cards in Riyadh. Who loses can be linked to Shakur Stevenson.
For the Norfolk, indigenous Virginia, Keyshawn, it is more important for him to get a big fight before leaving the 135 pound division. He kills himself, gaining weight to stay with lightweight, but he cannot do it indefinitely. The 2020 Olympic silver medalist Davis’s time is fast ending in that section, and he may not have the same success at 140 or 147, because there is no easy mark for him to pick up a belt.
The ring would like to welcome WBO lightweight champion Keyshawn Davis as our brand ambassador. Big things ahead for this emerging star – didn’t make him anything but the best if he continues to climb to the top of the sport. pic.twitter.com/uepxgz7tbv
