In the sixteenth struggle of his professional career, Abdullah Mason faced trouble, as his heart was tested. In the night, Keyshawn Davis, his first event for a return in November 2024, Abdullah Mason fought with Yohan Vasquez in the fight scheduled for eight rounds.

In the introductory circle of competition, both Mason and Vasquez were used by Foot Feints, trying to find the right range. With 2:12 left in the 1st round, Vasquez endured a bricklayer when a solid left shot landed.

Thirty -four seconds later, Mason returned the service when he merged with a sharp left left that sent Vasquez on the canvas. Vasquez stood up, but despite his leg injury, he scored a second shot when he hit the Freemason with his hard left hand.

“We are both in the same division, and I just got the news in my last interview that I was in WBO in second place, and he is the champion in that sanctity body. So it looks very possible that I and he UH, crossed the paths,” Mason said.

Mason could be okay to face Keyshawn Davis next, but besides actually fighting Davis, there is another way Mason can get a WBO belt. Recent speculation regarding the potential move by Keyshawn Davis to a division of 140 pounds.

If Keyshawn Davis is winning on Saturday night and then continues to move to the Super-Lolan Division, the WBO light world title would be to capture. In this special scenario, Abdullah Mason and WBO top -ended candidate Sam Noakes would fight for the empty WBO belt.

However, Abdullah Mason is not focused on just Keyshawn Davis and WBO lightweight title. In his interview mentioned above, Mason spoke that he was open to dealing with any owners of the division belt.
