boxing news

Keyshawn Davis, an up-and-comer in boxing, is set for his bout against Denys Berinchyk for the WBO lightweight championship in Norfolk this month. Not content to settle for one bout against his WBO opponent alone, Davis has already set his sights on future opponents including calling out Isaac Cruz while simultaneously taunting Gervonta Davis in Twitter messages sent during sparring sessions.

Davis will take on Berinchyk at New York’s Madison Square Garden Theater on February 14, which marks his first attempt at winning a title fight. Meanwhile, Isaac Cruz recently earned an upset win against Angel Fierro that put his post-loss trajectory back on course and makes him an ideal target for Davis’ post-title fight ambitions.

Cruz’s victory seemed to spark a reaction from Davis, who expressed his eagerness for a matchup with Cruz through a post, suggesting that a fight between them would be a compelling contest given their aggressive styles.

While Keyshawn Davis is paving his path to a title shot, he didn’t miss the opportunity to engage in a heated exchange with Gervonta Davis. After observing comments from the latter regarding referees and boxing tactics, Davis delivered a concise five-word rebuttal aimed directly at Gervonta, showcasing the tension between the two fighters.

This isn’t the first time Keyshawn has challenged Gervonta Davis, seeing him as a lucrative opponent. However, Gervonta doesn’t appear to be interested in accepting Davis’ challenge just yet.
