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.
Why is Jake Paul so popular? Why does he want to fight Tank Davis? Does he really find that fair? Tanks Davis is 1,66 m and Jake Paul is 1,85 m. It's almost 20 cm difference. It's really huge and unfair. This is similar to Conor McGregor (1,73 cm) fighting to Alex Pereira (1,93 cm) or Jon Jones (1,93 cm). Who finds this fight fair? It's a shame. I don't understand why people are interested in seeing Jake Paul's bullshit fight. Okay, his fight against Tommy Fury was interesting but fighting against 60 years old man and 20 cm shorter man isn't really a proud thing to do, nor interesting.
He used to be a youtuber, so sort of influencer and entertainer. And he brought this into boxing thru exhibition fight. And then the way he promote his fight, using trash talking and something saying bad against his opponents caught many and that's how he started.
Now he is very famous and still using the same old tactics that make a great boxer. Like Ali or Floyd Mayweather. They trash talk their way into the fans and we are all glued as to what he is going to say next, specially in they cross-path in a conference with Tank Davis. As Tank is also loud mouth himself, so fans are interested to see how this two are going to face each other and how many profanities are going to be throw against each other.
