Keyshawn Davis has withdrawn from the scheduled title bout with welterweight champion Devin Haney following the Thursday purse bid, the WBO announced Friday. Davis rejected a 25% purse split, opting to pull out instead of accepting a share of the fight’s earnings.

Top Rank secured the rights to the Haney‑Davis bout with an $8.55 million purse bid Thursday. As WBO champion, Haney was set to receive 75% of thebeauty, or $6.41 million. Davis, the mandatory challenger, would have earned $2.14 million.

The WBOответ will refer the matter to its Championship Committee and Ratings Committee for a ruling under the World Championship Rules and Regulations. Haney recently added a third weight‑class title in November, defeating Brian Norman Jr. to capture the WBO welterweight crown, following victories at lightweight and junior welterweight.

Davis is a former WBO lightweight champion and is coming off a unanimous win over Nahir Albright in May, but the purse dispute has forced a cancellation of the bout slated for Oct. 3.
