Keyshawn Davis Defends Title in Norfolk June 7

Keyshawn Davis, the undefeated WBO lightweight champion and 2020 Olympic silver medalist, is set to defend his title against Edwin De Los Santos on June 7 in his hometown of Norfolk, Virginia, with the fight airing on ESPN and ESPN+. Davis recently secured the WBO belt with a decisive win over Denys Berinchyk, further establishing himself as a top young talent in boxing. He stands apart from fellow American lightweights such as Gervonta 'Tank' Davis and Ryan Garcia, preferring to forge his own path. Ahead of his title defense, Davis has publicly defended both Tank Davis and Canelo Alvarez from critics, stressing the importance of respect and understanding in boxing. He supports the idea of Tank Davis facing Jake Paul, viewing it as beneficial for the sport’s popularity, despite opposition from Shakur Stevenson. The event also features Abdullah Mason facing Jeremia Nakathila for the NABO and NABF lightweight titles, spotlighting the next wave of American boxing talent.
