Jake Paul didn't hold back after the cancellation of his fight with Gervonta 'Tank' Davis. Paul had harsh words for Davis, calling him an "actual walking human piece of garbage" and taking issue with anyone supporting the boxer amid serious civil allegations against him.
The scheduled fight set for November 14, 2025, in a partnership between Most Valuable Promotions (MVP) and Netflix couldn't go ahead due to these legal concerns. As fans processed this abrupt change, Paul vented on social media about sacrificing time to prepare only for things to fall apart. His frustrations didn't stop there.
Paul turned his attention to Francis Ngannou, accusing him of avoiding a match-up. The former UFC star didn't seem too thrilled by Paul's comments and retorted, urging Paul to "choose your words wisely" and essentially advising him to stay in his lane. Ngannou also made it clear he had no interest when approached about replacing Davis.
For now, the canceled fight leaves a void in the boxing scene. Paul's outspoken ethics emphasize how important it is for athletes and promoters to maintain standards beyond just their performance in the ring. However, this situation doesn't completely stall Paul's plans—he's actively looking for someone willing and suitable to step into the ring.
Fans around the world remain engaged, eager to see who might rise as Paul's next opponent after this unexpected disruption highlighted not just individual choices but broader issues at play where celebrity meets sportsmanship.
