Keyshawn Davis
The Businessman
Bio
Right then, Keyshawn Davis is one of the most talented young fighters in American boxing. An Olympic silver medallist from Tokyo 2021, "The Businessman" has transitioned into the professional ranks with the kind of speed and skill that marks him out as a future world champion. He's slick, he's fast, and he's got the amateur pedigree to back up every bit of hype surrounding him.
Davis recently moved up to junior welterweight after weight-making issues at 135, and the move has looked brilliant. His stoppage of Jamaine Ortiz at Madison Square Garden in January showed he carries genuine power at 140 pounds. Top Rank has invested heavily in Davis, and his selection as the headliner for their first DAZN main event tells you everything about where they see his ceiling. Make no mistake — if he stays focused and keeps winning, a world title shot is coming sooner rather than later.
The Norfolk, Virginia native comes from a fighting family — his brother Kelvin is also a professional boxer. Keyshawn's combination of Olympic experience, hand speed, and ring intelligence makes him one of the most complete young fighters in the sport. The 140-pound division is absolutely stacked, but Davis has the tools to compete with anyone in it.
