Cheap win by Davis who lost credibility on the scales and in the ring.
Champions don´t miss weight …
Paulie spilling the beans on Davis ‘preperation’.
Another AB?
The kid is not ready for Lomo, Russell, Mikey, none of the top 130-135 fighters. He looked horrible, and he was supposed to fight Salido, seriously!!! Fighting like this, Salido would of walked right through him.
Wish I could find a video where I can see the footwork…
Blatant cheating which was also being condoned by the announcer with the tight underpants, .Davis was certainly not winning the fight, contrary to the biased announcers, he fought in bursts and would not stand a chance against any of the top ranked fights. I saw a definite lack of fight intelligence when he started showboating- not the way to go; the ref should have waved the fight off as a no contest
