The promoter Sampson Lewkowicz revealed to the media last Saturday night that he is negotiating a battle between lightweight contender Edwin de Los Santos and WBO 135-pound belt Keyshawn Davis. Lewkowicz says he hopes to fight.
Pitbull missed
This is not the big battle that Keyhawn (13-0, 9 COs) talked about to have against Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz And Gevonta Davis, but he’s not popular enough to get such battles.
Keyshawn boasted naive about how he captured the WBO lightweight title of Denys Berinchyk on February 14, would open the doors to a stamp of big names that wanted to fight him.
Davis sounded like the character George from the novel Mice and men, what He talks about having a dream farm and living from the ‘fat of the land’. It’s just a fragile dream with no hope to happen. Keyshawn’s dreams of the WBO title that change his life are just as hopeless and pathetic as George.
Untouchable fears
De Los Santos (16-2, 14 COs) has not fought in two years since his narrow 12-round decision against Shakur Stevenson in 2023. Given the long discharge, it is questionable whether De Los Santos can even gain weight for the collision against Keyshawn.
The top ranking probably wouldn’t leave the Southpaw knockout artist De Los Santos anywhere near Davis if he was active and looks good. The active version of Edwin that fans saw Jose ‘Rayo’ Valenzuela in three rounds in 2022 Contaminated untouchable classes Avoid like the pest.
Keyshawn has already shown that he is a child in his fight against Nahir Albright, and that he has been carefully linked since that battle. Putting him with a dangerous puncher like De Los Santos is a risky move to the best rank. He is like the equivalent of an old, buried, rusty landmine that can explode If the trigger mechanism is still intact after years.
There is no way on earth that the top -rank can fight the version of De Los Santos because they are trying to build him in their next star. They use the same careful match with the Norfolk, Virginia native Davis, as they did with Edgar Berlanga when he was still with the company.
