FITZROY Davidson commenced his professional career on May 17, 1980 on a losing note after going under to Trinidadian Lloyd George at the Jean Pierre Sport Complex in Trinidad and Tobago. George was far more experienced at the time with 23 fights under his belt and won the 10-round contest by points.
George had been on a straight Guyanese diet in his last six fights having come against Compton Canzius, Kid Carrington, Dennis Dalrymple, Winfield Braithwaite, Roy Smith and Davidson respectively. The fight against Davidson was his last.
The junior lightweight Davidson had a career that spanned 13 years and produced 19 fights, six of which were victories. He defeated Tyrone Downes, Sammy Fuentes, Lancelot Cyrus, Colin Morgan, Wayne Briggs and Gordon Carew. Cyrus was his only knockout victim. Davidson had his last fight on February 28, 1993.
He was knocked out in the second round by the young and strong Andrew `Six Head’ Lewis who went on to win Guyana’s first world title.
