Jake Paul is set to face his toughest opponent yet: world champion boxer Gervonta “Tank” Davis. The exhibition match is scheduled for November 15 at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta and will be streamed on Netflix.
The news comes after Paul’s highly anticipated bout with Anthony Joshua reportedly fell through due to “network issues,” likely a conflict with Joshua’s exclusive contract with DAZN.
This marks a significant step up in competition for Paul (12-1), who has primarily fought former MMA stars and recently defeated Mike Tyson and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr.
Davis is a formidable opponent, and the fight is expected to generate massive interest from both boxing and mainstream audiences.
