Boxing match rules for Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis announced: Ten-minute rounds, unrestricted
Jake Paul and Gervonta 'Tank' Davis are set to square off in a highly anticipated exhibition match in November this year. The announcement, which was initially accidental, was made by Netflix and has since generated substantial interest.
The fight, which is yet to be officially sanctioned, will take place at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The weight class for the match has been set at 195 pounds, with Jake Paul capped at 190 pounds and Gervonta Davis having a weight limit of 160 pounds, following exhibition rules.
Reporter Mike Coppinger shared his analysis of the potential rules for the fight on X, a platform formerly known as Twitter. However, the specific rules for the boxing match have not been explicitly stated. Typically, such rules are established by the overseeing boxing commissions or sanctioning bodies involved in organizing the professional bout.
Jake Paul mentioned that Gervonta Davis had to rematch Lamont Roach before discussions about the fight with him could resume. Initially, Davis was scheduled for a title fight rematch with Roach in August, and Paul was in talks for a major step-up against Anthony Joshua. However, the fights for both boxers have since changed, with the Paul-Davis match now scheduled.
Paul has hinted at the rules of the fight, stating it would be an exhibition event with 10 three-minute rounds. The fight is considered more of a show or entertainment event rather than a traditional boxing match due to the significant weight disparity and exhibition rules.
In the past, Paul had mentioned that a fight with Davis was close to being made official. The fight between the two boxers is not a professional title match, but it is expected to generate substantial business. The match was announced after Paul's bout with Anthony Joshua was canceled.
The upcoming fight between Jake Paul and Gervonta Davis is not the originally planned fights for both boxers, as they were initially scheduled to face Anthony Joshua and Lamont Roach, respectively. The fight between Paul and Davis is not a traditional boxing match due to the exhibition rules and significant weight disparity.
It is worth noting that the rules for the fight may follow similar exhibition rules as the Logan Paul vs Floyd Mayweather match in 2021. No restrictions will apply except for the fight not being professionally sanctioned.
As the date for the fight approaches, fans are eagerly awaiting more details about the rules and regulations for this unique exhibition match between Jake Paul and Gervonta 'Tank' Davis.
