Overview
- The exhibition is set for Friday, Nov. 14 at Miami’s Kaseya Center and will stream globally on Netflix, which says any subscription tier can access the event.
- The Florida Athletic Commission confirmed the bout is an exhibition that will be recorded as such in the national registry, with knockouts and technical knockouts ending the fight but no result added to either pro record.
- Promoters state the contest is scheduled for 10 three-minute rounds with a 195-pound limit and 12-ounce gloves, and the commission says three judges will score it: two human officials and one AI judge.
- After Ellie Scotney withdrew injured, undisputed bantamweight champion Cherneka Johnson will defend her titles against Amanda Galle, and Avious Griffin now faces Justin Cardona; other title bouts include Alycia Baumgardner vs. Leila Beaudoin, Gary Antuanne Russell vs. Andy Hiraoka, and Yokasta Valle vs. Yadira Bustillos.
- Debate over safety and legitimacy continues given the size disparity—reports note Paul has recently weighed near 227 pounds while Davis last fought at 135—with Paulie Malignaggi urging the WBA to strip Davis and Tyron Woodley cautioning Davis about Paul’s power; the fight was moved from Georgia after promoters withdrew permit requests.
