Gervonta Davis Chooses Fight with Jake Paul Instead of Rеvansh
- Davis is opting for a fight with Paul instead of a rematch with Rоuch.
- Rоuch, the elder, criticizes Davis for choosing a super fight.
- Experts note that the fight between Davis and Paul could spark super fights.
Gervonta Davis has decided to hold a fight with Jake Paul instead of the scheduled rematch with Lamont Rоuch Jr. According to the information, Davis declined the rematch that was supposed to take place in November, and now he will compete against Paul on November 14.
Lamont Rоuch Jr. expressed his dissatisfaction with this decision, stating that it is not in the interest of boxing. He emphasized that Davis violated an agreement under which he was preparing for a fight with his son. Rоuch believes that such a move could tarnish the reputation of the sport.
Davis and Paul are expected to have a massive audience on social media and will likely gain significant honorariums for this fight. However, Rоuch thinks that business in sports must be conducted properly, regardless of financial gains. According to experts, the fight between Davis, who is a champion, and Paul, who competes in a lighter weight category, could provoke different opinions among boxing fans.
Meanwhile, Davis, according to analysts, may attract attention in the boxing community through his choice. His decision to hold an exhibition match instead of a fight with an equal opponent could raise concerns in some circles.
