Keyshawn Davis prevailed in a battle of unbeatens and won his first world championship Friday. Davis, the 25-year-old American, defeated Ukrainian Denys Berinchyk by knockout and claimed the WBO world lightweight title.

At Thursday's press conference for the fight, Davis accused Berinchyk of a racist act, claiming he had bananas and a watermelon delivered to his hotel room. Berinchyk's camp didn't respond to the accusation at the press conference beyond claiming Davis and his team were looking for any edge to hype themselves up for the bout.

Davis was fighting for a major title for the first time after 12 victories (with eight knockouts) to start his pro boxing career.
