Jake Paul will face unbeaten Gervonta Davis on November 14 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia in an exhibition bout to be streamed live on Netflix. Davis has held the WBA lightweight title since Devin Haney vacated it in 2023, but that title will not be at stake because of the size difference between the fighters. Paul weighed 199.4 pounds before his June win over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, while Davis fought at 133.8 pounds in March. No official weight limit for the matchup has been announced. Davis is 31-0-1 as a professional; Paul is 12-1. Paul had been linked to talks with Anthony Joshua, and Paul previously fought Mike Tyson on November 15, 2024. Paul wrote on X that his motto is "anyone, anytime, anyplace, against all odds" and that he likes his odds.
Jake Paul will fight the unbeaten Gervonta Davis on November 14, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, in an exhibition bout that will be streamed live on Netflix, promoters said on Wednesday. Davis has been the WBA lightweight champion since Devin Haney vacated the belt in 2023, but the American's title will not be on the line against YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul due to the size difference between the two boxers.
Paul, a cruiserweight, weighed in at 199.4 pounds (90.45kg) ahead of his win over Mexican Julio Cesar Chavez Jr in June, while Davis fought Lamont Roach at 133.8 pounds (60.7kg) in March. No details have been provided on the weight limit for the fight. Yes, he's one of the top pound-for-pound boxers in the world, but my motto is, anyone, anytime, anyplace, against all odds. And I like my odds, Paul wrote on X.
