Nate Diaz Says He’s Accepted Jake Paul Rematch After Netflix Cancels Paul–Davis Fight

With the Nov. 14 card scrapped over a civil complaint against Gervonta Davis, MVP is reviewing options for a Jake Paul headliner this year.

Overview

  • Netflix and Most Valuable Promotions canceled the Nov. 14 exhibition after Courtney Rossel filed a civil lawsuit accusing Gervonta Davis of battery, aggravated battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping and emotional distress.
  • MVP said Ticketmaster buyers will be refunded within 14 to 21 days and noted it had opened an internal review of the allegations.
  • Nate Diaz posted "Fight accepted" to signal a rematch with Paul, though MVP has not officially announced an opponent; Paul praised Diaz but said a two‑weeks‑notice bout "isn't meant to be."
  • Reports indicate new dates under consideration include Dec. 12 or Dec. 19 as MVP and Netflix work to keep a Paul headliner on the calendar.
  • Francis Ngannou declined a short‑notice offer as "disrespectful" and Ryan Garcia appears unavailable due to DAZN rights, while Claressa Shields criticized Paul’s stated reasoning for the cancellation and Davis’ camp called the lawsuit "nonsense."
