Should be an exciting fight! But that picture makes Davis look really odd.
I was just thinking the same thing, really freaky picture. His head and stomach are disproportionate to the rest of his body. He looks a bit like an alien from your typical sci-fi movie
Davis threw my boy Brian Stann a pretty horrific beating, so I honestly don’t like Gustafsson’s chances in this one if it gets signed…
Yeah, I’m not liking Gustafsson’s chances either.
he looks alot like Dwight Howard
How does this guy buy a suit? He must get kid-sized pants and jackets with REALLY big shoulders. OMG.
