In an exhibition match, Paul, who is 12-1 with seven knockouts, will go on the unbeaten Davis, who is 30-0-1 with 28 KOs. Mike Tyson, who lost to Paul at the age of 58 in Netflix’s inaugural live boxing event in November, is frequently likened to Davis’s aggressive boxing style.
With 108 million viewers worldwide, that boxing battle in Arlington, Texas, was the most watched live athletic event ever, according to Netflix.
Paul, 28, defeated Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. by unanimous decision in his most recent bout in June, weighing 200 pounds. In his most recent fight, 30-year-old Davis weighed 133 pounds.
The November fight is being organized by Paul’s co-founded company, Most Valuable Promotions.
According to a press release from Nakisa Bidarian, co-founder of Most Valuable Promotions, Jake Paul and Tank Davis have completely changed the professional combat sports scene by becoming the most popular fighters among Gen Z and Gen Alpha viewers.
Paul, a social media superstar with 28.3 million Instagram followers, just moved to Georgia after spending $39 million on a huge South Georgia house earlier this year.
One of the biggest private land sales in Georgia history, Southlands is a 5,746-acre estate located in Decatur County.
Paul discussed the property on The Iced Coffee Hour podcast, claiming that he made roughly $30 million from his Tyson fight, which he used to finance Southlands.
Paul said to podcasters Jack Selby and Graham Stephan, “I’ve wanted to buy a ranch for the last 15 years.” I was looking for an area where I could hunt, wakesurf, and construct a racetrack.
