While several more tests are awaiting ahead, Davis can possibly continue his unbeaten streak. Besides, his stellar run in the amateur circuit puts some more favor to his corner. Here’s a look at his boxing record and stats.
The Different records of ‘The Businessman’
Davis holds a record of 77-12 as an amateur boxer, competing in 261 rounds. However, he couldn’t showcase his ability as a KO artist over there. Davis claimed zero wins via stoppage and his 12 losses also came via decision. So, it didn’t nourish the American boxers’ status as an elite hard-hitter.
Nevertheless, professional boxing saw a steady turn in the tides. He debuted in the undercard of Canelo Alvarez vs Avni Yildirim in February 2021 and knocked out Lester Brown in round two. Two months later, Davis returned and stopped Richman Ashley in the undercard of Jamel Herring vs Carl Frampton and advanced his professional record to 2-0.
A month later, he re-appeared in the undercard of Canelo Alvarez vs Billy Joe Saunders and vanquished Jose Antonio Meza via unanimous decision. Davis is 3-0 as a professional now, with 2 KOS, and a KO ratio of 66.67% coming from 12 rounds in total.
The Virginia native has been on a commendable start on his pro boxing career. Meanwhile, he has several years to fall on that resume. So, Davis can look to improve from this stage. Hence it seems to be all glory for the Norfolk resident at this stage.
