Jake PaulGervonta Davis Netflix Fight in Limbo After Lawsuit and Police Review

A promoter-led review has triggered contingency planning for the Nov. 14 card.

Overview

  • Court records show Courtney Rossel filed a civil suit in Miami-Dade County on Oct. 30 accusing Gervonta Davis of battery, aggravated battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping and intentional infliction of emotional distress tied to an Oct. 27 incident at Tootsie’s Cabaret.
  • Rossel seeks compensatory and punitive damages and a jury trial, and her attorneys say the incident was captured on club video, which Miami Gardens police are reviewing as an active case.
  • Most Valuable Promotions said it has initiated an investigation and is gathering information, with the Netflix exhibition still on the schedule but described by multiple outlets as in limbo.
  • Sports Illustrated and other outlets report Jake Paul’s team explored replacements and sent an offer to Ryan Garcia for a later date, but Oscar De La Hoya said Garcia cannot step in due to DAZN and Golden Boy contracts.
  • Reporters also named Terence Crawford, Francis Ngannou and Nate Diaz as potential targets under consideration, and no criminal charges have been filed publicly in connection with the Oct. 27 allegations.
