However, after Kelvin got mad at Nahir Albright in the fight for the co-main event, Keene and Keene were both involved in an argument with Albright behind the scenes.

Albright claims he was “jumped” behind the scenes of Keyshaun and Keon after his victory over Kelvin.
“They started walking to me, put their heads on mine, then grabbed me,” said Albright. I told ESPN. “Then I was about to swing, my team and guys, they grabbed everything with Keyshaun and it was crazy.”
Albright pointed out that in his scrum with reporters he had not decided with his team whether he would press for legal charges.

Kelvin posted on social media on Sunday to apologise to Albright for the argument, where he denied that his brother “jumped” him.
“On behalf of DB3, we apologise for the high tensions, and we took what our emotions made the most of us and along with this, we became better and more professional and what goes on with it.
There is some history between Albright and Keyshawn, the latter won by an unanimous decision when they last fought in 2023.
