A Clash of Boxing Eras
Boxing enthusiasts all over the world are gearing up to witness one of the most hyped clashes in sports currently. On Friday, November 14, 2025, Jake “El Gallo de Dorado” Paul (12-1, 7 KOs), the YouTube sensation-turned-boxer and No.14th-ranked cruiserweight in the WBA is preparing to go up against Gervonta “Tank” Davis, an undefeated champion across three divisions and the current WBA world champion, boasting a record of 30 victories, no defeats, and 1 draw, with 28 knockouts. The hometown will be Atlanta, and the match will be streamed exclusively as a Netflix film to audiences all around the globe. In the case of both fighters, it is not only a match, but it is cementing their legacy as the identities of modern boxing.
Jake Paul: From Disruptor to Contender
In half a decade, Jake Paul went through the transition from social media sensation to a pro boxer. A known knockout fighter and viral promotion master, Paul has defeated such high-profile rivals as Tyron Woodley, Anderson Silva, and Nate Diaz. The next year, 2024, saw him rise to the top and win a combat against Mike Tyson to become a part of history as the most-watched live sporting event on record, with 108 million people watching him.
In 2025, earlier in the year, Paul got a win against Julio César Chávez Jr., which made him enter the WBA cruiserweight rankings. Beyond his in-ring success, Paul has stood up to drive and improve fighter compensation and women in boxing, and has collaborated with USA Boxing in helping to bring forth the next generation of warriors.
Heading into the Davis fight, Paul remains confident. “Gervonta is an angry little elf who has disrespected my name for too long,” Paul said to Netflix. “His nickname might be Tank, but I’m an FPV drone—and I’m about to disable him. Atlanta, Nov. 14th, will be the worst night of his career”, he said.
Gervonta Davis: The Face of Boxing
Gervonta Tank Davis has forged one of the most dominating careers in boxing. Beginning in West Baltimore and rising to international fame, Davis has secured titles in three different weight classes and has earned a reputation as a formidable puncher in contemporary boxing. His stunning knockout of Leo Santa Cruz in 2020 and his knockout of Ryan Garcia in 2023 solidified his status as the next potential boxing great, comparable to Mike Tyson.
The speed, accuracy, and knockout power of Davis have made him a pay-per-view superstar and have regularly sold out arenas across the country. In his case, it is not just another defense, but it is a battle to ditch detractors and prove his supremacy as the pound-for-pound king of boxing.
