Jake Paul vs Gervonta Davis is in serious doubt. The two were scheduled for a Netflix exhibition match on November 14. However, Davis is now the subject of a bombshell lawsuit<\/a>, accusing the WBA lightweight champion of domestic violence, kidnapping, and other serious offenses. <\/p>\n

‘Tank’ Davis faced similar legal issues ahead of his proposed August 16 rematch against Lamont Roach Jr, when just ahead of the fight, the Baltimore boxer was arrested on domestic violence<\/a> charges stemming from an incident with the mother of his children.<\/p>\n

The rematch was initially postponed and eventually canceled. And in the aftermath, Davis controversially chose to pursue an exhibition against Paul instead of a rematch against Roach. With Davis’ latest legal troubles, the fight might be heading in a similar direction.<\/p>\n

According to Sports Illustrated’s Chris Mannix, Paul’s representatives are actively looking for potential replacements. Netflix is also involved, as Mannix reported on X<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“Netflix and reps for Jake Paul have been exploring potential replacements for Gervonta Davis, sources familiar with the situation told
@SInow. Paul-Davis, scheduled for November 14th, is in limbo after new allegations of domestic violence against Davis.”<\/p>\n

The hype for Paul vs Davis was building nicely, with Paul even claiming he has never been this scared ahead of a contest. ‘The Problem Child’ holds a significant size advantage over Davis, weighing 60 lbs more and standing 8 inches taller. However, Davis is a reigning world champion and one of the best pound-for-pound boxers in the world.<\/p>\n

It appears Davis’ legal troubles, though, have poured cold water on the event.<\/p>\n

In terms of replacement opponents, it would be hard to top a superstar like Davis. Paul has already fought Anderson Silva, who is set to take on Chris Weidman on the undercard. Tommy Fury is the only loss of Paul’s career, meaning a rematch could be interesting, but it’s a high-risk fight for Paul as Fury is way bigger.<\/p>\n

With the fight just two weeks away, it will be interesting to see if Netflix or Paul can find a worthy replacement.<\/p>\n
