The two first met in October 2023, when Davis won a majority decision that was later overturned.<\/p>\n<p>In the 10-round welterweight co-feature, former world champion Brian Norman Jr. returns against Canada\u2019s Josh Wagner.<\/p>\n<p>Keyshawn-Albright II and Norman-Wagner will be streamed LIVE on DAZN.<\/p>\n<p>In undercard action, Keyshawn\u2019s older brother Kelvin Davis (15-1, 8 KOs) returns in a 10-round welterweight tilt, while younger brother Keon Davis (4-0, 3 KOs) sees action in a six-rounder in the same division. Additional undercard details will be announced shortly.<\/p>\n<p>Promoted by Top Rank, in association with RDR Promotions, tickets go on sale Thursday, April 16, at 10 a.m. ET via Ticketmaster.com.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKeyshawn and Nahir left a lot of unfinished business in their 2023 fight, and everything that\u2019s happened since has only intensified the stakes for this rematch,\u201d said Top Rank President Todd duBoef. \u201cNorfolk fans know exactly what this fight means for Keyshawn as he strives to re-establish himself as one of boxing\u2019s elite stars. Brian Norman Jr., who many considered the best fighter in his division before losing his crown, returns in the co-feature looking to re-establish himself as a dominant welterweight with explosive knockout power and charisma. This inaugural doubleheader is the perfect launch of our new partnership with DAZN.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is exactly the kind of event DAZN loves to broadcast \u2014 unfinished business, genuine rivalry and elite-level boxing on a major stage,\u201d said Jared Kass, SVP North America, DAZN. \u201cKeyshawn Davis versus Nahir Albright is a rematch fans have been demanding, and bringing it to Norfolk for Top Rank\u2019s first DAZN event makes it even more special. With a stacked card featuring Brian Norman Jr. and the extended Davis family, May 16 promises a night that fight fans around the world won\u2019t want to miss. Watch it live only on DAZN.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Keyshawn (14-0, 10 KOs) enters this rematch at an important moment in his career. He became a world champion in only his 14th fight by stopping Denys Berinchyk in the fourth round to capture the WBO crown in February 2025. The 27-year-old was scheduled to make his first defense last June in Norfolk against Edwin De Los Santos, but the bout was canceled after he missed weight. He reset his course in the months that followed and returned in January with a statement-making 140-pound debut, handing Jamaine Ortiz his first TKO defeat. Now Keyshawn returns to deliver the performance his hometown has been waiting for and finish what he started against Albright.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNorfolk! I\u2019m coming home with a purpose,\u201d Keyshawn said. \u201cSince my last fight, I\u2019ve grown sharper, stronger, and more focused than ever. On May 16, you\u2019re going to see the best version of Keyshawn Davis. \u2018The Businessman\u2019 is ready to handle business in front of my people! It means everything to be kicking off this new era for Top Rank on DAZN. I\u2019m honored to lead the charge and show the world what this next chapter looks like. Norfolk, stand up&#8211;we\u2019re putting on a show!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Albright (17-2-1, 7 KOs), a Philadelphia native who turned pro with roughly 30 amateur fights, earned his spot the hard way. He lost his pro debut via majority decision in September 2016 but went on to win 14 straight before dropping a decision to Ortiz in February 2022. He followed with wins over Estivan Falcao and 2016 Olympian Carlos Balderas ahead of his first clash with Keyshawn, a rugged affair in which Albright kept the fight close on the scorecards. Since then, he has delivered two of the best performances of his career, handing older brother Kelvin his first pro loss last June and battling Frank Martin to a draw in January.<\/p>\n<p>Albright said, \u201cAll my life I have been an overcomer. Starting from when I was a kid, I fought my way to this position, tough fight after tough fight. And I\u2019m still standing tall. This fight is another obstacle to jump over. I\u2019m ready and grateful.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNahir belongs in the ring with all the top fighters,\u201d said Albright&#8217;s promoter, Rodney Rice, Founder and CEO of RDR Promotions. \u201cHe has put the work in and has an outstanding r\u00e9sum\u00e9. The combined record of his last eight opponents is 113-3-1, and his record against them is five victories, one decision loss, one no contest, and a draw. There is no doubt in my mind that Nahir \u2018Woo\u2019 Albright belongs at the top and he will, once again, prove that point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Norman (28-1, 22 KOs) compiled an impressive championship run that began in May 2024, when the 25-year-old stopped Giovani Santillan in the 10th to earn the WBO interim welterweight world title. The Atlanta native was elevated to full champion later that year after Terence Crawford vacated the title and followed in 2025 with highlight-reel title defenses against Derrieck Cuevas and Jin Sasaki before losing the crown to Devin Haney in November. Wagner (19-2, 10 KOs) is a 12-year pro whose only losses have come against then-undefeated David Papot in November 2024 and once-beaten Harlem Eubank last November.<\/p>\n<p>Norman said, \u201cThe God of War is back\u2026I stayed patient. I stayed working. And now it\u2019s time to remind the world. See ya\u2019ll in May.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m coming to take over Virginia,\u201d said Wagner. \u201cThe boss is ready to showcase his skills and cause a huge upset. No man scares me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Pepe Serna 360 Conversation: Texas, Acting, Scarface, Miami Vice, Trump, Humanity, ICE &amp; Much More\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G4QQqcDtoI4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;
