Former European champion and contender for the world title Anthony Yigit (26-2-1, 10 KOs) will act as the next opponent Keishon Davis (7-0, 5 KOs) at the Top Rank tournament on April 8 in Newark.

A few months ago, 23-year-old Davis was named "Prospect of the Year" by virtually every sports media outlet. The last time the American fought was in December, defeating Juan Carlos Burgos.

As part of the same evening, an interesting heavyweight fight between Jared Anderson and George Arias will take place. Another unbeaten promising heavyweight Damyan Knyba will have his first fight this year. In the main event of the evening, Shakur Stevenson will face Shuichiro Yoshino in the WBC lightweight eliminator.
