Keyshawn Davis apologizes for rebound
What angered fans was the way former WBO lightweight champion Keyshawn hovered at the end of his written apology, saying, “In the end, the facts will be revealed.” The statement said Davis was playing the victim, despite missing his weight and was in the locker room with Nahir Albright that night.
Accountability: Davis in the Fire
Fans think it’s a sign that Davis doesn’t want to be overweight for his title battle against Delos Santos, and Davis doesn’t want to take responsibility and was later stripped of his WBO title. The promoters of de Los Santos will not allow him to occupy a bigger key in this case.
Davis-Albright’s melee details
Then, after defeating brother Kelvin Davis, Keyshawn entered Nahir’s locker room. Albright claims Keyshawn jumped him.
“I apologize to everyone affected. I let my supporters down, especially the young people who look up to me. I will set a better example. Finally, the facts will be revealed,” said Keyshawn Davis on Instagram.
It took Keyshawn nearly three weeks to send out his opponent. Ideally, he should do so the day after missing his weight and participating in the locker room incident. Some fans hope Keyshawn is suspended due to what happened.
Truth reveals its flap
If Davis’s sponsor is the person who advised him to apologize to improve his public image, they should have edited the last part, “In the end, the facts will be revealed.” The comment shows that Keyshawn is trying to get rid of his responsibility for the work he did on June 7.
Which truth can change Keyshawn’s lack of weight? There is nothing to explain.
