In a recent exchange that has stirred up the boxing community, Gervonta Davis has issued a challenge to Jake Paul to step into the ring together. Jake Paul, riding high after his sensational victory over Mike Tyson, responded with an intriguing condition.
Following Jake Paul’s remarkable win, which became one of the most-viewed boxing events ever, the social media star turned professional boxer has found himself courted by numerous top-tier contenders. Among those eager to face him are Ryan Garcia, who ominously hinted he could “end”Paul’s boxing career in just a few rounds, and Artur Beterbiev, who proposed a bout for the undisputed boxing world title. Clearly, if Paul desired, he could fill his calendar with high-profile matchups.
Gervonta Davis Offers Challenge
In the midst of this whirlwind of offers, Gervonta Davis stepped forward after a press conference for his upcoming lightweight world championship in March 2025. He openly called out Jake Paul, urging, “Tell him, ‘This is my call out,’ Jake Paul, what’s up,” showcasing his eagerness to mix it up with the YouTube sensation.

Paul Responds with a Sassy Comeback
Paul’s retort was sharp and humorous, as he dismissed Davis’ challenge, saying, “Floyd’s little son calling me out?… come on little tank, you know better. I saw you pretend like you didn’t know who Amanda Serrano & Katie Taylor are… do better and maybe one day I give you a platform to shine again after that budget basic press conference you just had.” This response quickly went viral, igniting discussions among boxing fans.
Reactions poured in on social media, with various opinions emerging from the boxing aficionado community. One fan encapsulated the dynamic, stating, “Gervonta’s a fighter, Jake’s a showman. One’s here for respect, the other for the clout. Let’s see who really brings the heat,” highlighting the contrasting motivations driving each fighter.

Another comment echoed sentiments of excitement, noting, “Jake [is] coming in hot again. Tank vs. Paul? This could get really interesting.” However, not all responses were positive; some skeptics pointed to the significant weight difference between the fighters, suggesting it may not be a fair matchup. One user quipped, “Jake can basically bench press this guy 100x lol,” emphasizing the physical disparity.

Future Fight Possibilities
Despite the back-and-forth, it remains uncertain whether Paul will commit to a bout with Davis. It’s worth noting that the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation will soon lift his boxing ban, potentially opening the floodgates for new fights. The future landscape of boxing includes a clash between these two personalities, but concrete plans remain to be seen.
As the conversation continues to evolve, fans are eagerly anticipating how this saga unfolds in the ring.
