It looks like Jake Paul has his next opponent. He will be fighting Gervonta "Tank" Davis in an exhibition match in Atlanta on November 15th. Interesting that Gervonta wants this to be an exhibition fight. I wonder if that is due to weight class issues or if he’s worried he’ll lose. Anyway, the next boxing spectacle has been set.
Should have been an easy fight for Jake but as we would know it's all for the entertainment and the monetary leeching. Why not Jake don't want to go with pros that still in their primes and same weight class so he could test the waters of the boxing world? In my opinion Jake has enough skill to be there but he's probably afraid his fake boxing record will be tainted.
As I remember, Jake Paul was looking in the likes of Canelo Alvarez. But Canelo will have a fight against Crawford so it was scrapped. Or I'm not sure if Alvarez is interested although we have seen that boxing is business as well so he might go for a fight with Jake Paul if the price is right.
Yes, this is a exhibition fight and clearly there is some weight issues here. But it should be an easy fight for Jake here as what others might think. But Tank is a pro, and undefeated at this weight class. So he could still poise a big problem for Jake even if he is the bigger and heavier guy here.
