Team Muratalla’s target list: Lomachenko first, Keyshawn never? Their strategy emphasizes a lack of trust

Raymond Muratalla (23-0, 17 CO’s) made it clear that he wanted IBF lightweight champion Vasily Lomachenko next Saturday night after winning the interim version of the title last Saturday night and beating Zaur Abdullaev (20-2, 12) by a 12-round decision in the Pechanga Arena in San Diego, Kalifornia.

Muratalla looked like he was shot after the fight with a crippling Dart rifle when asked if he wanted to challenge WBO lightweight champion Keyshawn Davis. He looked shuffled at that moment, as he wanted to escape the interview session, but was caught. You can see from that look that Muratalla does not want any part of the fight against Keyshawn.

Keyshawn Last?

It looked like Raymond was Put in one gear All night can’t go to a higher gear to record the knockout he needs to make a statement. Muratalla won with the scores 119-109, 119-109 and 118-110. However, the fight looked much closer than the heavy sloping scores. I had it 115-113 for Muratalla. Yes, he won, but it was close, and he didn’t look like world champion material. He was more gatekeeper-ish.

When asked if he would be open to the challenging fellow fighter Keyshawn Davis for his WBO lightweight title Next, Muratalla’s teammate said: ‘You keep raising Keyshawn. There is Shakur. There is (Gervonta) Davis. He is (Keyshawn) the worst of all the fighters. We will choose Davis, Shakur and Dan Keyshawn. ‘

So, if this plan works out, the following three battles of Muratalla will be this:

1. Shakur Stevenson
2. Gevonta Davis
3. Keyshawn Davis

None of the first two battles on Team Muratalla’s hit list could occur in this lifetime. It says that Muratalla Keyhawn for last rescu, because he will have moved up to 140 or 147 by the time he comes through the other battles he is taking, which will not be against his first two choices. Muratalla would fight against other fighters in his next two competitions, not Shakur or Tank. He will probably fight someone like Abdullaev in terms of talent. Keyshawn will be away for a long time by the time Muratalla is finally really fighting against him, which works well for him.

The target: Loma

“I got Lomachenko next. This is the main focus now. Who after that afterwards no matter, ‘Raymond Muratalla told the media When asked against whom he wants to fight next. When asked if he would like to fight WBO lightweight champion Keyshawn Davis, he was dumb.

“It would suck, but what can I do?” said Muratalla, and he responds that Lomachenko may retire. “If they set it up, I’ll be ready.”
