Chavon Davis is looking to build upon his highly successful professional debut.  Back in May, the former amateur standout blew out Brent Oren in the first round of their bout that was scheduled for 6 rounds on the David Benavidez-David Lemieux undercard that took place in the Phoenix suburb of Glendale, Arizona.

His next assignment will take place on October 8th on the Sebastian Fundora-Carlos Ocampo undercard in Carson, California at Dignity Health Sports Park.  Davis' opponent has yet to be finalized but he is expected to take a step up in class against an opponent with a lot of experience and a good record.  

"They are moving me fast. I don't want any soft touches. My last fight was scheduled as a 6 rounder.  This will be an 8 rounder and then I will be moving to a 10 rounder in my next fight," Davis told BoxingScene.com.

The Ohio native has sparred with several top names in the Las Vegas area and in the process, has gained invaluable experience.  

Even at the young age of 22, Davis understands that knockouts sell and that being an entertaining fighter will help him get bigger purses and also get him regular appearances on television.  

"I am an action fighter. I am going to give the fans another knockout. It isn't going past the first round. I am going to go on a knockout streak and give the fans what they want to see, which is a lot of knockouts," said Davis who fights under the Premier Boxing Champions banner. 

If all goes according to plan, Davis, who may end up moving down in weight from the super middleweight division, will return to the ring again before the end of the year.
