He’s actually making more money here than in his pro fights. Reports say he only earned $15 million in his fight against Ryan Garcia back in 2023, and that was already a big fight for him. So no boxer, even a champ, would say no to an exhibition if the purse is around $40 million.
It’s worth more than two or three of Gervonta’s fights, and this is an exhibition; exhibitions are where the money is, as long as Jake Paul keeps his record intact, all his future opponents will benefit. Well, I mentioned in my last posts that neither fighter wants to lose the fight. Still, Jake Paul’s win will benefit many boxers.
If they are going to stage it, we may see a draw here. Gervonta needs to protect his unbeaten record, while Jake Paul aims to boost his reputation, as many are benefiting and will benefit from his continued success.
Wow, the guy is really contributing to the entertainment and the other boxers’ pockets.
Davis is a professional boxer and he's not that old as he is only 30 years old. So if this exhibition match will push thru, I would bet on Davis over Paul. I hope he beat him fast as Paul is milking the boxing industry even if we say, he's considered to be a professional boxer now.
I am just not to the idea that there are more deserving pro boxers that are earning less and because Jake Paul is like a social media personality, hence, getting more compensation than most small time boxers.
