Salka has no business being in the ring
No, Danny’s team has no business setting up such a disgusting cherry-picked mismatch fight.
he should of given Herrera that rematch. that was a fight he should of lost
Danny looks amateurish even in this win. He really has no style nor strategy. He just swings wild and hopes for the best. His head is straight up, and he drops his other hand when he punches. The next decent guy he faces will clock him and make him go cuckoo…….
