Keyshawn Davis, Nahir Albright Set for Heated Rematch

Former world champion and Olympic silver medalist Keyshawn Davis returns home to Norfolk this Saturday for a long-awaited rematch against Philadelphia contender Nahir Albright at Scope Arena. The 12-round super lightweight showdown headlines a DAZN card that also features former world champion Brian Norman Jr. taking on Canada’s Josh Wagner in a welterweight co-feature.

Davis (14-0, 10 KOs) and Albright (17-2-1, 7 KOs) first met in October 2023, when Davis earned a majority decision victory that was later overturned, fueling tensions between the two camps. Now, nearly three years later, both fighters believe they have something to prove.

Davis, who has stopped each of his last three opponents, made his intentions clear during Thursday’s press conference.

“I’m happy. I have a great opportunity to perform under these bright lights,” Davis said. “I’ve stopped my last three opponents that I've fought and this is going to be another stop.”

The Norfolk native dismissed lingering debate surrounding their first fight and insisted this version of himself is far more dangerous.

“It’s 2026. That doesn’t matter,” Davis said of the first matchup. “I’m going to knock him out in 2026.”

Albright enters the rematch confident after a strong showing against Frank Martin and says his growth since the first meeting will be evident.

“I’ve improved a lot,” Albright said. “I got stronger, faster, and my IQ improved. It’s going to show Saturday night.”

The Philadelphia fighter also predicted a different outcome this time around.

“With Nahir Albright with his hand raised,” he said. “That’s it. I’m going to get my hand raised Saturday night, and the whole world is going to see it.”

In the co-main event, Norman Jr. (28-1, 22 KOs) returns for the first time since suffering a loss to Devin Haney in November and says the experience has sharpened both his mentality and approach.

“I’m feeling good, I’m feeling great,” Norman Jr. said. “I’ve been loving the process, loving the journey, and I’m looking forward to showing what I’ve learned during this time.”

Wagner (19-2, 10 KOs), meanwhile, believes he is being underestimated heading into the biggest fight of his career.

“I’m being overlooked,” Wagner said. “They think they are going to run right through me, but that isn’t happening. I can fight, I can box and I can move.”

The undercard also includes Kelvin Davis against Peter Dobson in a 10-round welterweight bout, while unbeaten Dominican contender Yan Santana defends his NABO featherweight title against Cristian Cruz Chacon.

The event streams live on DAZN beginning at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, with preliminary bouts starting at 6:30 p.m. ET.
