He is going up in the polls while spending none of his money, while Davis is pounding away, and going down.
When your opponent is self-destructing, why get in the way?
Exactly my thinking .. Davis has thrown everything but the kitchen sink at Simon and has done nothing but sink lower in the polls.
This "Civil Judgement" is Davis final chance at a haymaker. If Simon survives this and is still even or cvery close -- then all he has to do is let Grayout punch himself out, then start firing counterpunches in the final weeks of the campaign.
