Keyshawn Davis, the undefeated lightweight sensation, is set to face off against Argentina’s Gustavo Lemos in an eagerly awaited bout on Nov. 8 at Scope Arena in Norfolk, Virginia.
Davis, a hometown favorite, holds an impressive 11-0 record, with seven of those wins coming by knockout. Known for his rapid rise in the professional ranks, the 25-year-old has built a strong reputation, punctuated by his silver medal at the 2020 Olympics and a recent unanimous decision win over Miguel Madueno in July.
Now, Davis is aiming to solidify his status in the lightweight division against Lemos, who boasts a formidable 29-1 record with 19 knockouts.
Gustavo Lemos, hailing from Buenos Aires, is entering the fight fresh off a disputed decision loss to junior welterweight contender Richardson Hitchins in April. The 28-year-old is no stranger to high-stakes bouts, with his career-highlight win being a fifth-round TKO against former world champion Lee Selby in 2022.
