Raymond Muratalla says he will push a fight against unification against the light champion of Wbo Keyshawn Davis after collecting the 135 LB IBF belt.
#4 Muratalla (22-0, 17 kos) Fight #2 Zaur Abdullav (20-1, 12 kos) for the light title of the IBF on May 10 in the Pechanga arena in San Diego, California. The event will be displayed Lives in espn and ESPN+, from 22:00 ET/19: 00 PM Pt.
The winner of the Muratalla-Abdullaev struggle will be updated as a light champion of IBF or will fight for the belt against the current Vasily Lomachenko champion.
Loma has been out of action due to an injury to the back since capturing the IBF vacancy title on May 12 last year against George Kamboses Jr. Lomachenko until October 8 to defend his IBF title against the winner of the Muratalla vs. Abdullaev.
Muratalla is expected to defeat Abdullaev to be updated at the IBF light champion or fight Lomachenko. If you put your hands on the IBF title, you will push the maximum place to make the fight for unification with Wbo Keyshawn Davis. They promote the two fighters. Therefore, it should be an easy struggle.
“What makes the most sense is Keyshawn (Davis). He is with the highest rank and I am with the first rank. I think it will be what will probably happen,” said Raymond Matalla, the Light Welterweight contestant Sean Zittel About a struggle you want for a world title.
Keyshawn would make sense if he and the first rank were ready to put it with a risky opponent for a change. All you have to do is look at the type of opponents that he had been fighting since he became a professional in 2021 to know that he goes to the artificial star manufactured route. It was when a fighter combines with tomato cans to create a record to turn them into a pseudo-star of the PPV. Keyshawn does not come from that guided path carefully to fight Muratalla and lose.
“I think this is likely to happen because it is with the first rank. Gervonta and Shakur, they already had plans. I think it is the most meaningful, and it is the one that is most likely to happen,” said Matalla.
Muratalla is very unlikely to have the opportunity to fight Keyshawn for its light wbo title because it is carefully matched with the first rank. He has not yet fought anyone who had a remote chance to overcome him. Guys who could give problems with Keyshawn, Andy Cruz, Matalla and Abdullah Mason, have shown no interest in fighting. It is quickly overcoming the £ 135 division and could be 140 until next year.
Davis is hopeful that he can stay slightly enough to get a large mega-lluita against Gervonta Davis, but this will not happen without Turki Alralikh’s interest in financing him. In a positive sign, Turki made Keyshawn one of his brand ambassadors for his Ring magazine this week. If you want to see Keyshawn fight a living body like Andy Cruz or Muratalla before moving towards a light heavy weight, you can do it. Without him, Keyshawn will not voluntarily fight Matalla or Cruz for the great probability of exposing.
“I think I should have entered there and besieged him,” Muratalla said, regretting not to fight more aggressively in his fight against Tevin Farmer last year on July 13. “I think I was thinking too much. That was all I could have done much more.”
Muratalla focused on throwing simple features, believing that he could remove the farmer through this approach. This was the wrong style to use against the former IBF Super Feather Pweight champion because he has a good chin and lost him.
“ I was told in my corner to leave my hands, and that’s all I needed to do. He saw in the last round what happened when I let my hands go (Muratalla Forter Farmer). I was trying to find a great shot to do -evil, and it was probably a mistake that I made too, just looking for a big shot, ” said Matalla.
In the fight against Raymond against Farmer, he did not go after him with non -stop combinations until the tenth round, and approached him. However, if Muratalla would again fight farmers, there is no guarantee that he would be successful using a great output style because he arrives in the fights against William Zepeda. Tevin has found out how to neutralize the output by means of a large amount of retention and movement.
“There are many skills that I have not yet shown,” Muratalla said, speaking of his next fight against Zaur Abdullav on May 10 in San Diego, California. “I can’t wait to show the world the type of skills I really have. I think it will come to fight and I will be about 100% for that. It’s not there.
“100%. I think having a belt puts my name with his,” said Muratalla when he was asked if having a world title will be his “pet” negotiation to achieve the biggest fights he wants. They can no longer avoid it. Therefore, I will definitely be calling for these traits if everything goes well. “
