This is a very good fight and gone under the radar. Keyshawn Davis is in for a stern test and hope he gets through it. We will find a lot about him.
No way Denys get a decision on ESPN and on a Top Rank card against one of the guys they have marked as their future. So the question is can Denys KO Davis ? Unlikely. Can he outclass Davis to the point where the judges have to give it to him ? Unlikely. But even if this was in Ukraine I don't see Denys winning. Plus Denys sending a watermelon and Banana to Davis hotel room ?
O...so you wanna take it there, do you Denys ?
And Teo steps in and pretty much gives a thumbs up to Denys

So yeah, we have nice lil racially hostile fight at the weekend to enjoy
only under the radar to casualsQuote:

The stale race stereotype bs is some sad stuff and looks like half tard Teo Lopez had a hand in it. Keyshawn needs to keep his head on straight.
anyone all on board for the second coming of Jared Anderson on undercard, don't call it a comeback! ;D. Long road back for him I believe. Xander Zayas in co main and like to see his development. Great to see Abdullah Mason again too.
But can we talk about the elephant in the room with Zayas. He sits ranked 1,3 and 5 but fighting a fella not ranked top 10 by a single body. Small things but he's been holding onto a secondary steppingstone wbo belt. It's been around meaning nothing for 30 years yet here Zayas is holding it for 8 "defenses" now. Most it has had. They are really trying to slow walk Xander and I can't put my finger on why exactly.

I've seen some of that racial stuff on social media, heading into the Davis-Berinchyk fight... and I think the possibility of a setup should at least be entertained. Hell... we question things that are much more certain. Why not question whether this was done to drum up artificial hostilities between Keyshawn and Denys?
Glad to see you mention Xander, @Spicoli.
TBH, I've pondered the same thing. The kid looked red hot when he first became pro (I was even fortunate enough to see one of his early fights live in PR). At some point he made the move up to 154. Since then I'm not sure what to think. He's a good enough boxer and seems to have some pop. But yeah... seems he should be progressing faster than he is. Not sure why that is, either. He's still missing that litmus test that most upward moving fighters have to go through. He still hasn't had to navigate deep waters. I would LOVE to see the fight tonight vs Spomer, so I can fully gauge exactly where Xander is at.
Interesting thing about Spomer who admittedly I'm not too familiar with (I remember him from one of our boxing prediction contest weeks ;D ). He's listed in BoxRec as a middleweight, although he has fought at superwelter for the last several years. Apparently he did start out as a middleweight before settling in at the lower weight.
We'll see what happens tonight.
nico just lost
jared walking out
jared's defense still looks leaky but he's winning through five
jared's heart doesn't seem in it anymore, just going through the motions. rocked at the end of the fight on the ropes. he should win a wide decision
jared gets the unanimous decision, wide as expected. he should get out now
they announced this fight

rohan polanco coming up
Why do they start this so early ffs. Just walked in the door and was hoping to see Anderson. But by what I'm hearing maybe it was for the better ;D. Said it before...when a kid in their mid 20's is already talking about retirement he may be telling you all you need to know. Main card kicks at 8pm in two hours so we're going to have a gap. Unless of course it does not get delayed by the Nba all-star celeb game...count on that happening
rohan scores a knockdown in the first round & another in the second round. ref stops it in the second round
abdullah mason up next
manuel jaimes just went the distance with rolly over ten in his last fight. two losses but never been stopped
They should have saved Mason for the main card. So Zayas and main event, that's it ???. Very sharp 1st for him. Sitting on that counter left uppercut as Jaimes over commits. Mason puts his feet and hands together well, in unison.
abdullah scores a knockdown in the second round off an uppercut
Same left uppercut caught him flat and dropped Jaimes. Sharp shooting is Mason right now. That jab is something nice. Has a wicked upper arc on the way he throws it. Quality 2nd
Ohh Jaime down again exact same shot in 3rd! Beautiful uppercut.
another uppercut scores a knockdown in the third round
yeah xander as co main is not a good look. main card also has vito mielnicki jr v connor coyleQuote:

Great stoppage. 6th (?) KD off right hand and Jaimes reclines on his back ref waves it. Very solid win for Abdullah.
That's horrible, Abdullah belongs on the main cards and solid ten rounders. No more 8's. They're doing Vito and Zayas down the road only reason he's getting air over Mason imo. Zayas taking baby steps tbhQuote:

Ok good. Just tuned in. ;D
First round was close, but that right hand early in Round 2 seemed to buckle Coyle. Different fight now.
Coyle reacted. I may have given that third round to him. He closed strong.
;D Oops you sir are no Mrs. Cleo ;DQuote:

Vito looked pretty taggable end of 3rd. Must be a cherished life to get ranked top ten without fighting a single fight there. Wbo always been bad at this
fun fourth
Dang! Vito getting cranked with nice 3-piece combo. Bad cut over left eye of Coyle.
I've got it 2-2
Peter Manfredo :-X
