Andy Cruz (5-0, 2 ko) says he came to Keyshawn Davis and Shakur Stevenson in a “strange” match after his victory in 10 rounds unanimously by the judges over Omar Salcid (20-2, 14 ko) at Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas Saturday night.
The haunted gaze of Keyshawn
Shakur was impressed with the victory of the candidate in the light category Cruz, saying that he looked “amazing”. Keyshawn looked shocked, as if he had seen the spirit, and looking at him, it could be concluded that Cruz’s tonight’s performance had intimidated him, remembering his victory over him at the 2020 Olympic Games.
If there was any chance that Keyshawn was soon fighting against Cruz, she disappeared with his tonight’s performance because he was even better than five years ago when he was educated at the Olympic Games. Cruz’s coach, Derek ‘Bozy’ Ennis, turns him into a more offensive fighter sitting on a shot. In the tenth round, Cruz seriously injured Salcida and was forced to stick to. That never happened to him before.
The results were 99-91, 98-92 and 98-92 for Cruza.
Bozy’s praise
“He would have come out if Andy didn’t stop. Hit him with a few good shots but sometimes stopped, ”said coach Derek ‘Bozy’ Ennis for Fighthypeclaiming that Andy Cruz would knock out Omara Salcid if he hadn’t stopped after hitting him with good shots.
“You saw when he was buttoning him several times. He looked at him, then followed him. When you do that, you have to finish it. He picks him nicely. I gave him a five, ”Bozy said about Cruz’s performance. “He won in every round, and he did it against the perpetrator.
“He progresses every time. He struggled with a guy who had 20-1. That boy was no confusion. He could receive a blow and could fight. So, Andy is just there. I give him the deadline by the end of this year to fight for the title. Who has the tiles, we want it.
“Weird” meeting
“I see Andy to give anyone’s problems in the division. I don’t care who she is. Anyone. At the end of 2025 [Cruz fights for a world title,” said Ennis.
“Objective completed, and I’m going to keep on to the top,” said Andy Cruz. “They were acting a little weird, but Keyshawn is my son, and Shakur said, ‘What’s up, too,’” said Cruz about him walking up to Shakur Stevenson and Keyshawn David after his win over Salido.
