Davis Won the Albright Rematch With Three Wide Scorecards
Keyshawn Davis defeated Nahir Albright by unanimous decision on May 16, 2026, at Scope Arena in Norfolk, Virginia. The judges scored their twelve-round junior welterweight rematch 117–109, 118–108 and 118–108 for Davis.
A decisive rematch
Davis and Albright first met in October 2023, when Davis received a majority-decision victory that was later changed to a no contest after a positive marijuana test. Their rematch therefore gave the former lightweight champion a chance to settle the rivalry in the ring.
Davis scored a knockdown and controlled much of the action, although he also lost two points for slamming Albright. The deductions did not erase the advantage he had built over the twelve rounds.
All three judges selected Davis by wide margins. Top Rank reported totals of 117–109 and 118–108 twice, confirming a unanimous decision.
A homecoming result
The contest headlined Top Rank’s first event in Norfolk under a new DAZN arrangement. Davis fought in his hometown and improved his professional record with the victory.
Albright completed the full distance but lost the rematch decisively on the cards. The result followed their earlier disputed first meeting and gave Davis a clear official win in the series.
Top Rank’s event page and The Ring’s report confirm the date, venue, scores and result. The original 2023 bout’s later no-contest status is distinct from the 2026 rematch, which remains a Davis win.
