Jake Paul Now Set To Fight Ex-Heavyweight Champ Anthony Joshua After Gervonta Davis
Bout Falls Apart

#JakePaul’s next fight is set for next month.

After his scheduled bout with #GervontaDavis was cancelled, Jake Paul is now officially set to face former heavyweight champion #AnthonyJoshua on December 19 at the Kaseya Center in Miami, streamed live on #Netflix. Anthony, a two-time unified heavyweight titleholder with a 28-4 record (25 KOs), returns to the ring for what’s widely considered by many to be the biggest test yet for Jake.

As previously reported, Jake’s matchup with Gervonta Davis was scrapped after Gervonta was hit with a civil lawsuit from an ex-girlfriend accusing him of aggravated battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Speaking on his match with Anthony, Jake said, “A professional heavyweight fight against an elite world champion in his prime. When I beat Anthony Joshua, every doubt disappears, and no one can deny me the opportunity to fight for a world title. To all my haters, this is what you wanted. To the people of the United Kingdom, I am sorry.”
