Keyshawn Davis is facing a whirlwind of backlash after what happened in Friday’s final weigh-ins. ‘The Businessman’ was supposed to fight Edwin De Los Santos in his hometown of Norfolk in his first-ever world title defense of his WBO championship belt, but the fight ended up getting canceled after he missed weight by 4.3 pounds, well over the 135-pound limit. And this has proven costly!
He not only lost out on a payday, but the WBO, as a result, also stripped him of his lightweight strap. Though attempts were made to salvage the fight by increasing the weight limit and offering De Los Santos more money, the two camps could not come to an agreement. And now, a cruiserweight champion has lashed out at Davis for the apparent lack of respect for the rules.
