Keyshawn Davis says all three Davis brothers will be titleholders simultaneously

There are several examples throughout boxing history of two siblings holding world titles at the same time – right now, for example, there are Sebastian and Gabriela Fundora, as well as Daniel and Caroline Dubois.

But three siblings? That’s a higher degree of difficulty. Sure, there have been fighting families with several siblings in the pros, including the Alvarezes, Kamedas, Mayweathers, Russells and Smiths. In recent memory, only the Kamedas – Daiki, Koki and Tomoki – have had a triumvirate of titleholders simultaneously for a few months in 2013, though Koki’s was a secondary belt.

Keyshawn Davis says he and his family could make history.

“We all going to be world champions at the same time,” Davis said in an interview with Matt Lenihan of Boxing Social. “My brother Kelvin Davis, he already getting to that contender level. And my little brother Keon, he about to be 2-0 on my undercard. But Keon, it’s going to take him about, tops, 15 fights for him to be fighting for a world title. Keon got all the skill and ability in the world.”

Keyshawn, a 25-year-old who won a silver medal in the 2020/2021 Olympics, is 12-0 (8 KOs) as a pro. He will attempt to become the first of the Davis brothers to win a world title. Keyshawn will challenge Denys Berinchyk on Friday, February 14 for the WBO lightweight title in the main event at The Theater at Madison Square Garden and airing on ESPN.

The undercard includes Keon, 1-0 (0 KOs). The 23-year-old welterweight prospect turned pro in November. 

Kelvin should not be confused with the former cruiserweight titleholder of the same name from about two decades ago. This Kelvin is a 28-year-old junior welterweight with a record of 14-0 (7 KOs). He last fought in November, when all three brothers scored victories in front of their hometown crowd in Norfolk, Virginia. Kelvin won an eight-round decision over the 15-3 Yeis Gabriel Solano.
