The scheduled super fight between Jake Paul and Gervonta Davis seems to get more controversial by the week.
Not too way back, it was announced that Jake Paul‘s next boxing outing will happen against WBA lightweight champion, Gervonta Davis.
‘The Problem Child’ is on a six fight win streak together with his latest win having come against former world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, and it was arguably Paul’s best performance yet.
Despite that, his upcoming fight against ‘Tank’ on November 14 is viewed as highly controversial due to the staggering weight difference between the 2.
‘Large bonus’ added to controversial Jake Paul vs Gervonta Davis clash
Not long after the fight was announced, it gave the impression to be in jeopardy of being canceled after the Georgia State Athletic and Entertainment Commission announced that Most Precious Promotions withdrew their request to host the event on the State Farm Arena in Georgia.
Nonetheless, the event was then moved and it’ll now happen on the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida, and can proceed to stream live and exclusively on Netflix.
Despite that, with there being an enormous weight difference between the 2 and that being one in all the major talking points ahead of the clash, it has been ruled as an exhibition bout, but there’ll still be a winner announced.
Not only that, however the fighters will wear 12oz gloves, and Paul has a maximum weight limit of 195lbs, with an enormous weight discrepancy expected.
And slightly below a month out from the controversial clash, recent details have emerged regarding a ‘large knockout bonus’ being added to the bout.
“If someone knocks the opposite one out, they’re gonna get a giant, big bonus,” Paul said on the DOUBL3 COVERAGE PODCAST.
The precise amount of the ‘large bonus’ is currently unknown
Despite ‘The Problem Child’ having announced that there will likely be a ‘large’ knockout bonus, the 28-year-old hesitated to disclose the precise figure of the bonus.
In his short tenure in skilled boxing, Paul has turn out to be one in all the most important stars, and in his previous couple of fights has made a major amount of cash, putting him ahead of a whole lot of boxing stars.
