Two of the biggest names in the boxes will collide on November 14, when Jake Paul will face Gervont “Tank” Davis on the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, both sides confirmed ESPN on Wednesday.

The combat weight and the number of rounds have not yet been established. The fight will be promoted by Paweł’s most valuable promotions and live broadcast live around the world in Netflix.

Talks between the two parts have been going on since the beginning of the year, and initially it was planned to go forward with the fight after the delicate title WBA WBA VBA Wail Offise to Lamont Roach Jr. However, these plans were suspended after Roach and Davis fought the shocking majority of the draw in March. Rumors about the rematch in August never brought pregnancy, and both parties received earlier negotiations, finalizing the fight agreement in November.

“The original timeline assumed that the” tank “would fight Jake [Paul] After he fought with Roach, “the most valuable co -founder of the promotion, the bidarian, said Espn.” The result did not necessarily change something himself, but our waiting time to see what Davis would do, caused Jake to fight Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. “

Although the initial reports suggested that Paul secured the fight with Davis after discussions about heavyweight tilting with the former united champion Anthony Joshua, Bidarian told ESPN that Joshua’s fight is still on the table and was never planned to take place in 2025.

“I think it’s just a matter of” go “,” said Bidarian about ongoing negotiations for Paul-Joshua in 2026 ” Jake looks at how he wants to show the world that he will fight David, and then plans to face Goliath.

As for the upcoming fight, with such a significant difference in weight, and Paul tilts the scales at the level of 199.4 pounds for fighting Chavez in the scale of the circuit house and Davis weighing 133.8 pounds, when he faced roach, talks about what weight will question.

“We are still wondering,” said Bidarian, without committing to fight as an exhibition, as reported by other stores. “Jake will definitely have to go below his 200-pound weight, which he fought for. I can say that we will have a fight that will have the final result, regardless of whether by way of knockout or decision.”

The divergence of weight attracts the striking similarities to the exhibition fight between Paweł’s older brother, Logan and Floyd Mayweather in June 2021, Mayweather, who spent most of his career in 147 pounds, weighed 155 pounds while Paul weighed 189.5 pounds. At the eight -edge exhibition, no winner was announced, which reportedly sold over 1 million PPV and generated over $ 80 million revenues.

Paul-Davis will be shown to a much larger audience in Netflix with higher rates, because Paul will still prove as a full-time boxer.

Jake Paul (12-1, 7 KO) led the campaign as a cruiser’s weight and currently ranks 14th through WBA after his unilateral decision on Chavez in June. His plans to be the world champion will be suspended on a huge cultural event against Davis, whose goal is to fight as early as August 2021, when he revealed a list of wishes for opponents in social media, including Nate Diaz, Tyron Woodley, Tommy Fury, KSI and Canelo Alvareez.

“Gervonta is a furious petite elf who does not respect my name for a long time,” said Paul in a statement for ESPN. “His nickname may be a tank, but I am a FPV drone and I am going to turn his ass. Yes, he is one of the best pounds boxers for pounds in the world, but my motto is anyone, at any time, contrary to all adversities. And I like my chances. First, I intend to kill David, and then I will go to Golith’s slaughter. again.

Davis (30-0-1, 28 KO) is one of the biggest attractions in boxing, but he never competed in a weight class higher than 140 pounds. He fought in delicate (135 pounds) in the last six fights, dating from December 2021. His fight with Ryan Garcia with Ryan Garcia at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas was a huge success at the cash register with $ 1.2 million PPV Buys and a gate of $ 22.8 million in history in the USA. For several years, he has been involved in the war of words with Paul in social media and will try to put an end to the competition in November.

30-year-old Davis was dealing with legal problems in the summer with a battery offense resulting from the alleged domestic dispute with his ex-girlfriend on Father’s Day. These fees were dropped last week. Davis will resume his boxing career against the former YouTuber, which also became one of the biggest names in boxing.

“It is a fight between the greatest warriors in the world for the audience Gen Z and Gen Alpha,” said Bidarian. “It’s really about who is the real face of American boxing and I see it as a disruption [Paul] versus destroyer [Davis]. “
