Paul's response came after his recent victory over Mike Tyson in November. The fight stirred up controversy due to Tyson's age of 58, making it a tough watch for many fans.
Following the bout, several fighters stepped up to challenge Paul. Artur Beterbiev and Daniel Dubois both expressed interest in facing the YouTuber-turned-boxer, seemingly to defend Tyson's honor.
World champion Gervonta 'Tank' Davis joined the line of challengers. However, a significant weight difference of nearly 100 pounds separates Davis and Paul, making the matchup unlikely.
Paul took to social media to respond to Davis' call-out. He didn't just stop at "You know better." The influencer boxer expanded on his thoughts:
"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 and 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."
Paul's response suggests he's not interested in the fight right now. He criticized Davis for his apparent lack of knowledge about women's boxing and mocked the lightweight champion's recent press conference.
Davis is currently preparing for his WBA lightweight title defense against Lamont Roach. He's also mentioned plans to retire at the end of 2025.
As for Paul, he previously talked about wanting a showdown with Canelo Alvarez. But his recent comments suggest he might have changed his mind about those plans.
