Jake Paul<\/a>‘s bout with Gervonta “Tank” Davis<\/a> hasn’t torpedoed his chances at Anthony Joshua<\/a> … so says Eddie Hearn<\/a>, who tells TMZ Sports talks between the two sides remain ongoing.<\/p>\n

El Gallo is slated to enter the ring against the lightweight champ in Miami next month … but before that spectacle was finalized, there were rumblings he could take on the British superstar.<\/p>\n

The Matchroom promoter says there’s still hope that fight gets made down the road … but it really depends on how Paul fares against the much smaller Davis.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Hearn explains he told Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions partner, Nakisa Bidarian, if Tank ends up beating the brakes off the internet superstar on Nov. 14 … the likelihood of getting in the ring with Joshua — who’s bigger than Jake — diminishes dramatically.<\/p>\n

He admitted he initially wondered if Paul’s side was just using Joshua’s name to help further negotiations with Davis … but considering the conversation didn’t end when that matchup was set in stone, he understood that wasn’t the case.<\/p>\n

As for Paul’s boxing ambitions, Hearn was quite complimentary … saying the former Disney star has the entire sport of boxing “red hot” right now.<\/p>\n

Sounds like there’s no bad blood after the two got into a legal battle — perhaps they really bury the hatchet by doing business together??<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Eddie Hearn Paul vs. Joshua Talks Ongoing … Tank Outcome Could Change Things Published October 18, 2025 12:50…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":223108,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[571],"tags":[64,63,802,44,85,635,26898],"class_list":["post-223107","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-boxing","tag-news","tag-sports","tag-sports-news","tag-tmz-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223107","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=223107"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/223107\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/223108"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=223107"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=223107"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=223107"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
