[Boxing] Jake Paul vs Tank Davis

[joeperry]

I wouldn't surprise that he wants it to be an exhibition match, we all know Jake wasn't really a professional boxer or started a professional boxer and I'm not sure if tank didn't just want to include Jake in his personal record or it's just because it's gonna be an easy money if it's an exhibition match.

Anyway, this is an interesting match, though we all know that Jake is gonna lose, but what if Jake win, do you think this will be a start of Jakes professional boxing career?

This is definitely an exhibition match, no way a cruiserweight fighter will cut down to lightweight where Tank Davis is fighting right now, and no way Davis goes up that high either. There has to be a catchweight, but it’s not final yet.

Whoever loses, especially if it’s Davis, it won’t affect his record since it’s not a pro fight.

no one knows yet who is gonna win.. unless its fight on the weight class of Davis, then obviously Davis will win.

I don’t think Jake will want to lose to a little guy; he has fought fighters from welterweight to heavyweight, and he won convincingly in many of these fights.

It’s a big humiliation to lose to small guys when he has weight and size advantages, and it’s also a big humiliation for Gervonta if he loses the fight. Both guys will want to win because they both have a reputation to protect, and if the fight ends in a draw, Gervonta will have the last laugh because he has proven that he can take a cruiserweight; that’s a significant moral and career boost for him.

I dont think this is going to be a humiliation, since Gervonta is a top boxer. It wont be a humiliation for Gervonta either if he loses, as it is an exhibition fight. He will have fun and earn money. Everyone would understand that if that would be a real professional fight, first they will never meet, second everyone understand that Gervonta wont give him a chance. No one get humiliated when they compete with a child and lose for fun

For sure Paul would never think that Tank Davis is little guy. He provably pay respect since his opponent is a world champion and for sure he won't think he's easy opponent for him.

Both would provably do everything they can since as what you have said Paul doesn't want to lose here since its huge career boost for him if he defeat tank.

Also Tank doesn't want to lose here since even if this is an exhibition fight for sure he want to win on every fight he made. I've see this guy so dedicated on each fight he had that's why he became a champion. But I believe that Davis would really get the last laugh here since experience will matter Tank still young and strong.

We should be betting on the real fighter here and that’s Tank Davis. Whatever the terms are, I still think Davis will win because he’s the real pro. Hopefully this exhibition isn’t just all hype that ends up looking rigged.

Jake Paul’s only loss was against Tommy Fury, and Tank is obviously better than him. So most likely Jake Paul will take another loss here.

And he said that Tank Davis has been disrespecting him and so that will be the story board on this fight. But it's obvious that a big bully guy against a small but power little man. So it depends on what angle we see it.

We have seen Manny Pacquiao before, as the great little guy against the biggest of opponents at 147 lbs - 154 lbs and yet he won. Maybe this could be the case here as Gervonta is a professional boxer unlike those that Jake Paul has face before.

Most people underestimated Jake, me included, because he was more of an online personality, but he's been training hard and you could see it in his last fights.

What I don't like about him is that he's always picking old retired MMA fighters, or very old boxers like Tyson. When he finally got a decent boxer (Fury) he lost.
So, I'd bet on Davis here, but... There always has to be a catch like that weight difference. These are not fights you really want to bet on because they're more like something you'd see in a circus.

[goldkingcoiner]

He can clean up the division that he wanted at 135 lbs. Maybe he has a hard time fighting the other champions there. But I'm hinting that he really doesn't want to lose that 0 and now wanting more money by fighting Jake Paul. For sure he will take a lot of heat from his fans and his critics for going this route.

The match is a celebrity match for influencers, exhibition match makes it likely for the match to be fixed. Jake Paul posses an advantage of weighing more but Tank do have a pro career unlike Jake Paul. The match is about money generating than showing professionalism of the sports, of course we can expect Jake Paul to win as he doesn't want to spoil his influencer career while Tank will be cashing out massively.

I agree.

Jake Paul is a faker and only does entertainment fights for his influencer career. And his brother is infamous as well, especially in Japan, for being an obnoxious influencer. I do not think we should make any of them more famous by talking about them or their activities. Any self-respecting real boxxer is not going to even look at Jake Paul. Even though he probably pays old legends giant sums of money to "fight" against him.

Jake is picking fights where he has an advantage, and this time, his only advantage is his size and weight, which could backfire, as he may underestimate his much lighter opponent.

Neither fighters want to lose in this fight. Gervonta doesn’t want to lose here because he has never lost a fight, and Jake has not only a reputation to protect but also doesn’t want to lose to a fighter who is smaller than his size.

If this fight becomes a big hit, expect a lot of small guy vs big guy exhibition matches.
Jake continues to innovate in his exhibition matches. I wonder after this what’s next for him. Maybe he will fight a retired sumo wrestler

[acroman08]

Just a small update, it looks like the real date of the fight is November 14th instead of 15th.

Anyway, this is an interesting match, though we all know that Jake is gonna lose, but what if Jake win, do you think this will be a start of Jakes professional boxing career?

no one knows yet who is gonna win.. unless its fight on the weight class of Davis, then obviously Davis will win.

It's an exhibition match between a boxer wannabe and a professional boxer, so it will most likely be a draw. I don't think Davis would risk getting a loss in an exhibition match from Jake Paul.

[tabas]

Another money-making match for Jake Paul and easy money for Tank Davis. To be honest, whenever I see any of the Paul brothers' names in any boxing match. I am not excited to see it anymore because I know that it is all for the show yet his fans like that.

It will still depend on whether there is a clause in this fight that Davis would have to lose and make Paul the winner of this match. Well, it all depends on how much money is in the bag guaranteed.

This is what exhibition fights are made of, its all for the show, but look at this figure.

With the money Gervonta will get from fighting Jake Paul, losing the WBA won’t mean anything. Davis’ estimated purse for the Paul fight is $40 million.

He’s actually making more money here than in his pro fights. Reports say he only earned $15 million in his fight against Ryan Garcia back in 2023, and that was already a big fight for him. So no boxer, even a champ, would say no to an exhibition if the purse is around $40 million.

It’s worth more than two or three of Gervonta’s fights, and this is an exhibition; exhibitions are where the money is, as long as Jake Paul keeps his record intact, all his future opponents will benefit. Well, I mentioned in my last posts that neither fighter wants to lose the fight. Still, Jake Paul’s win will benefit many boxers.

If they are going to stage it, we may see a draw here. Gervonta needs to protect his unbeaten record, while Jake Paul aims to boost his reputation, as many are benefiting and will benefit from his continued success.
Wow, the guy is really contributing to the entertainment and the other boxers’ pockets.

Davis is a professional boxer and he's not that old as he is only 30 years old. So if this exhibition match will push thru, I would bet on Davis over Paul. I hope he beat him fast as Paul is milking the boxing industry even if we say, he's considered to be a professional boxer now. I am just not to the idea that there are more deserving pro boxers that are earning less and because Jake Paul is like a social media personality, hence, getting more compensation than most small time boxers.

Tank has never really had a passion for the sport, that is why his record is very lackluster. He was gifted a draw in his last fight and saw the writing on the wall. He is never going to be an all time great so he might as well cash out while he still has a big name. The only fighter who has cherry picked more than Tank is Jake Paul himself. This fight is no exception. It is a complete mismatch from a physical standpoint.

[Justbillywitt]

I sincerely hope that at least in this fight both fighters take the fight seriously. I know it's an exhibition fight, but they should at least respect the people who will buy tickets or watch on Netflix. In my opinion, the best way to show respect for the people who will watch the fight would be for the fighters to fight very seriously. I hope it's a fight where there are real punches, a knockout, and the winner is the clear winner, without any doubt. That way, the exhibition fight can be taken seriously.

Well let's hope they can do as you have said but I am seeing a situation where both fighters will be trying to play safe since it's an exhibition match they wouldn't want to put their bodies on the line. I believe the people that are going to buy tickets to watch the match won't be expecting much from them, since they already knew it's an exhibition match. The people that will buy tickets to go watch the match will just be going their for fun and relieving themselves of boredom by coming out to funt their wealth and fashion.

Probably, he should have lost in his last fight though, but most likely that is his last straw in the pro fight. So maybe he thought that he can still take advantage of his career, making a lot of money fighting Jake Paul.

But I do agree, in the paper it's looks like a physical mismatch. But that's what the whole point of Jake Paul's career in the exhibition fights. Former boxers or MMA that is really out for a long time and obviously he is going to win. Just like here, a career 135 pounder against a CW/HW in Jake Paul, it's a mismatch.

This is true people that buys ticket for an exhibition match wouldn't expect to see a heavyweight championship fight where every brutality is showcased by the fighters. Boxing has now been categorized and people who wants to watch boxing exhibition matches are like people who go to watch entertainment wrestling matches to unwind themselves and have fun. I expect Jake Paul and Tank Davis, to give the spectators value for their money, they are professionals who knows what the exhibition spectators wants to see, they'll put up the show and become richer, that is the idea.

We can only hope that they will give value for our money. Remember that Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson fight? There are a lot of hype on that fight, but I felt that fans was short handed here as there are no exciting rounds as obviously, Tyson is old and can't pull the trigger anymore.

Hopefully this fight could be different, although as what others says, it's a physical mismatch as Tank is very small as compare to the huge Jake Paul. But maybe there could be some entertaining rounds and at least those who buy tickets will be happy and satisfied at the end of the fight.
