Jake Paul Secures Gervonta Davis Exhibition After Joshua Talks Fail

Jake Paul is reportedly set to face Gervonta 'Tank' Davis in an exhibition match on November 15 in Atlanta, after contract talks with Anthony Joshua stalled. Despite this, discussions for a Paul vs. Joshua fight remain active, with Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn describing the bout as a serious fight where Joshua would prepare like facing a world champion, and suggesting that only Paul's willingness can stop it from happening. Former UFC champion Tyron Woodley, who lost twice to Paul, believes Paul could hurt Joshua if he lands a clean hit, though Woodley does not necessarily predict a Paul victory. Joshua's trainer Ben Davison has criticized Paul as 'deluded' for thinking he can take on the two-time heavyweight champion, emphasizing Joshua's experience and ability to handle such challenges. The potential Paul-Joshua fight is expected to generate massive interest and revenue, with Paul reportedly willing to accept a minimal share of the purse to make it happen. Overall, while the Paul-Davis exhibition is confirmed, the prospect of a Paul vs. Joshua bout continues to generate debate and anticipation in the boxing world.
