Andy Cruz and Keyshawn Davis know each other well after sharing an Olympic final at the 2020 games in Tokyo.
Cruz was the winner on that occasion, and Eddie Hearn, now the promoter of the Cuban star, believes his man would repeat that success if they were to meet in the pro game.
Both men have made impressive starts to their careers with Davis a bit more ahead after beating Jose Pedraza last month.
A fight down the line is inevitable due to their amateur rivalry, and Hearn is very confident on the outcome.
“Come on, mate. That’s like taking candy from a baby,” said Hearn to IFLTV regarding a meeting between the pair.
“Listen, I might call out Keyshawn Davis with an offer on Saturday night, or I’ll give Top Rank Andy Cruz for nothing. I’ll pay the purse.
“Keyshawn Davis can’t beat Andy Cruz. It’s impossible. You know you get that mental block sometimes just like when you're facing anyone. That’s what would happen to Keyshawn, and I love Keyshawn.”
