Jake Paul names Tank Davis as next boxing opponent
Jake Paul and Tank Davis are ready rumble in the boxing ring — at least, exhibition style. On Wednesday, Aug. 20, Paul posted on his X account a fight-style poster featuring him and Davis and showing the fight is set for Nov. 14 at State Farm Arena in Atlanta and will be carried by Netflix. REQUIRED READING: Jake Paul 'frontrunner' to fight Anthony Joshua next, says Joshua's promoter "Gervonta who has been disrespecting my name for too long,'' Paul wrote in the post. "His nickname might be Tank, but I'm an FPV drone and I'm about to disable tiny boy. 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.'' So much for picking on someone your own size. Paul is 6 feet, 1 inch tall and fought last at 200 pounds. Davis is 5 feet, 5 1/2 inches, and fought last at 135 pounds. That would give Paul an advantage of 7 1/2 inches and 65 pounds. But there's a reason they call Davis 'Tank.'' He hits like one. Davis, the WBA lightweight world champion, is 30-0-1 with 28 KOs over his career. He's coming off of a majority draw against Lamont Roach Jr., and the 30-year-old southpaw is a marketable heavy hitter. Following Paul's announcement on X, Most Valuable Promotions issued a release confirming the fight for Friday, Nov. 14. Said Paul in the release: "Jake vs. Tank is the culmination of four years of callouts and a brewing rivalry between Paul, the sport's most-watched fighter whose showmanship has redefined boxing promotion, and Davis, one of the most feared punchers in the world and widely regarded as the Mike Tyson of his generation," the release reads. "Paul and Davis, the favorite boxers of Gen Alpha and Gen Z, respectively, have both battled to claim the title of modern boxing's biggest star, setting the stage for this monumental showdown." Paul (12-1, 7 KOs) is coming off a victory over Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by unanimous decision. Although he has stressed he wants to win a world championship, this exhibition suggests he remains interested in big paydays. In reacting to the news, Ryan Garcia wrote on his X account, "Boxing is officially the WWE.'' The Ring initially reported the two boxers had agreed to an exhibition fight on Monday, Aug. 18.
