Ezechiel King: Nahir Albright Def. Kelvin Davis

Certainly the fight, which caused the greatest drama over the weekend, was the hostile Keyshawn Davis, Nahira Albright, returned from almost two years of release to overcome the oldest brother Keyshawn, Kelvin. Kelvin Davis hit Albright, wearing a five -inch advantage, but he rarely used it during the fight. The Albright game plan was clear from the very beginning: JAB His path as Davis and his right hand.

In the second round, it was perfectly managed, initiating the knees of a larger man and dropping him into the following fury, although the judge ruled. The fight became more and more physical than that moment, because Kelvin held and tried to intimidate Albright against the lines when they gathered, although Albright was more successful, finding a place for his shots in the middle. All this served to make Davis’s crime hard, because he was moved to the average of four power, he hits the round.

Davis has become powerful in the last three rounds, landing in seventh place in seventh power, when the pace became crazy, but the damage was caused. Albright Outlande and hurt Davis several times, making the decision of the majority in the territory of the enemy. For Davis it was quite a terrifying result, because all his flaws began to cost him his undefeated album in his hometown. The resulting drama will probably also have consequences for his brothers.

On the other hand, Albright reached a successful return to Pro Ranks, rejecting him an undefeated perspective in the recent weight class and potentially establishes a rematch with the former champion Keyshawn Davis.

Sean Hemphill def. Mark Jeffers

Heading through the pond to Yorkshire, a pretender to the super weight of IBF, Mark Jeffers, lost “O” with American Sean Hemphill, even though he was a substantial favorite -1000. Jeffers pushed the pace early, while Hemphill was pleased that he would sit and collect his arrows. The overturning changed in the fourth round, when Hemphill decided to stand on the ground and a fight with Jeffer.

No warrior had a problem with landing on his man during the whole fight. When he developed, Hemphill began to look like a more complete warrior – he willingly stands and trades or gives earth – and showed better variety in his shots. Although Jeffers could land cleanly, it was often a cost of two or three blows landed for Hemphill. The fight became really exhausting when she wore, both men feel the pace and damage, but again the American simply adapted better.

Mark Jeffers simply turned out to be a little too united in this fight and was summarized by a guy he was about to beat on paper. In my opinion, this is a symptom of turning your tires a little too long, because Jeffers simply did not raise levels, as it probably liked. Meanwhile, for Sean Hemphilla it can be a bit of a breakthrough, because Jeffers is by far the best warrior he beat, and the division remains relatively slim.

Close to Miss: Callum Simpson Def. Ivan Zucco

Stopping in super medium weight and in Yorkshire, the local hero of Callum Simpson received some fear by the invincible Italian boxer Ivan Zucco. Simpson, a much larger and better man, entered the immaculate 1-2 from Southpaw Zucco, just a few seconds into the competition-for the first time he was knocked in his career for the first time.

Simpson tried to prove that it was FUKS, pressing Zucco into a rope many times, as long as the Italian repeated his feat, dropping Simpson after the second time, when a larger man was promoted to him. Simpson did not look particularly damaged after any of them, but both were immaculate.

However, this is where the fun stopped for Zucco, because the man from Yorkshire fought him for the ropes for most of the remaining fight, and Zucco from time to time finds success outside the third round. It is approaching tenth tenth, when Simpson passed Zucco three times before the Italian corner called him resignation.

Simpson managed to stop in front of his hometown; In this fight, however, there were some really disturbing signs, especially for someone who struggles with such as Hamzah Sheeraz. For Ivan Zucco he strongly exceeded his expectations, but I would be shocked if he had ever left the European level, because he was simply too miniature and he lacked power.

Devin Haney Targets Key Opponent Following Shakur Stevenson Fight Talks Breakdown

"Devin Haney Targets Key Opponent Following Shakur Stevenson Fight Talks Breakdown"

After positive steps towards making a fight, Devin Haney and Shakur Stevenson are said to be moving on after their teams could not finalise terms behind the scenes.

The pair of elite world champions have been linked throughout 2026, but the match-up appeared off the table earlier in the year due to a dispute over the weight.

Stevenson, who has fought just once at super-lightweight, wanted to meet at a catchweight of 144lbs, and was even said to be demanding a 10lbs rehydration clause.

Team Haney at first remained firm on the welterweight limit of 147lbs, where he beat Brian Norman Jr. last November to become WBO world champion.

Earlier this month, the fighters appeared to have a breakthrough, publicly agreeing to 145lbs on social media. Fans got excited, and predictions began flooding in.

Today, Stevenson said that, despite the initial agreement, he received an email from Haney’s lawyer saying that they were now switching back to 147lbs. Haney hit back, saying Stevenson ‘went missing for days’ after they had agreed to 145lbs, and that his rival ‘did everything’ for the fight not to happen.

Whoever is at fault, the fight now seems dead in the water.

Boxing Scene‘s Lance Pugmire now reports that Haney will revisit a fight with IBF champion Liam Paro. The Australian won the belt from Lewis Crocker in June and has since called on all champions in the division – Haney, Ryan Garcia and Teofimo Lopez – to unify. Bill Haney, father and trainer to Devin, previously announced that November 28 in Atlanta was the target for his son’s return.

Who Stevenson now targets remains unclear, though fans will begin to criticise the inactivity. He has not been in the ring since an impressive victory over Teofimo Lopez in January, a particularly frustrating period of inactivity due to a high-profile promotional deal with Zuffa Boxing announced in July.

Tim Bradley Calls Out Biggest Duck in Boxing for Devin Haney vs Shakur Stevenson Collapse

"Tim Bradley Calls Out 'Biggest Duck in Boxing' for Devin Haney vs Shakur Stevenson Collapse"

In the wake of a proposed clash between Shakur Stevenson and Devin Haney falling through, Tim Bradley believes one man, who he describes as the “biggest duck in boxing”, is solely responsible.

The two pound-for-pound stars were in talks to collide later this year, with November 28 and Atlanta having been suggested as the potential date and location, respectively.

According to Stevenson, however, negotiations reached an impasse at the “11th hour” due to Haney’s lawyer demanding that they fight at 147lbs.

This, if accurate, would have meant a refusal to meet at 145lbs, which both sides had seemingly decided was a sensible catchweight for their showdown.

But while Stevenson claims he was willing to jump up from 140lbs, the slick southpaw has accused Haney of going back on his promise to drop down from welterweight.

As a result, Hall of Famer Bradley has said on his YouTube channel that, in his mind, Devin and his father and trainer, Bill Haney, are to blame for the fight not happening.

“I’m gonna name you ‘Deebo Dev’ – the biggest duck in boxing. And all y’all thought it was Shakur Stevenson [avoiding Haney] all along.

“Bill [Haney]how you gonna get out of this one? What happened – you got cold feet? This man [Stevenson] gave up the weight; this man gave up some money.

“You got your lawyer involved. You said you wanted this fight – you agreed to 145[lbs] and all. Come on now – Shakur agreed to it as well. And now we can’t get the fight because you wanted it at 147[lbs]. Is that true, Bill?”

While Stevenson comes off a unanimous decision victory over Teofimo Lopez in January, Haney has not fought since dethroning Brian Norman Jr last November.

Dubois vs Wardley 2: Heavyweights Clash at Career Heavies for World Title Rematch

"Dubois vs Wardley 2: Heavyweights Clash at Career Heavies for World Title Rematch"

With 41 knockouts between them from 43 victories, few expect the contest to go the distance.

Wardley, sporting Ipswich Town’s newly-launched third kit with his name printed on the sleeve, was still bearing the scars of his punishing defeat in Manchester five months ago.

A cut across the bridge of his nose, first sustained during his 2024 draw with Frazer Clarke, reopened against Dubois and left his face badly swollen and bloodied.

The punishment he absorbed has raised questions over whether his decision to take an immediate rematch has come too soon but Wardley remains confident he can reverse the result.

“It’s simply seek and destroy now,” he said.

Promoter Frank Warren is predicting a “blockbuster” 2027 for the heavyweight division, with lucrative fights awaiting Saturday’s winner.

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will finally meet in Cardiff on 11 December, while British prospect Itauma is set to return in January following his world-title defeat by Hrgovic.

Warren confirmed there is no clause for a third fight between Dubois and Wardley but the Queensberry Promotions boss refused to rule out a trilogy if the Ipswich fighter avenges the only defeat on his record.

“If that happens it’s a natural fight,” Warren said. “That’s what’s so intriguing about this. Who will they fight next year? We want to find out who is the best.”
