Tale of the Tape

Fight Preview

Jake Paul makes his return to the ring in November, as he takes on the reigning WBA lightweight champion. Concerns have already been raised following the announcement, as there will be a huge weight difference between the boxes in Georgia, with Paul regularly weighing in at 200lbs.

However, it could be argued that the weight and height differences could be levelled up by the fact that Paul remains an aspiring talent, and he will be coming up against one of the very best boxers on the planet in the form of Davis.

Of course, the main reason for the fight comes down to the finances, with the bout likely to be viewed by millions on Netflix. Still, there is a fear that somebody is going to get seriously hurt should these blockbuster, albeit ridiculous, exhibitions continue to be announced.

Davis is the dominant force in his weight classification, having avoided a professional defeat throughout his career. However, the American will be aiming for a better showing than in his previous bout after narrowly keeping hold of the WBA gold following a draw against Lamont Roach Jr.

Paul has won 12 of his 13 professional bouts, with his only defeat coming in his only fight against an active boxer in the form of Tommy Fury. Since then, he has bounced back to winning ways, registering points wins over an aging Mike Tyson and Julio Cesar Chavez.

This could be a mismatch as one of the most talented boxers in the U.S. takes on Paul. However, the weight and height difference is impossible to ignore, and the shenanigans that come with this type of event mean that all three possible results are on the table. However, for the sake of professional boxing, the preference is for the reigning WBA lightweight champion.
