Paul–Davis Exhibition Sets 195-Pound Limit as First Face-Off Highlights Size Gap

A bespoke ruleset — 195-pound cap, 10 three-minute rounds, 12-ounce gloves, commissioned judges — underpins Florida approval.

Overview

  • Jake Paul and Gervonta Davis will box Nov. 14 at Miami’s Kaseya Center in an exhibition streamed on Netflix after the bout was moved from Atlanta.
  • Most Valuable Promotions detailed the format: 10 three-minute rounds at a maximum of 195 pounds with 12-ounce gloves, with the result not counting on either record.
  • Three commission-approved judges will score the fight on a 10-point must system to declare a winner if it goes the distance, and both fighters are enrolled in USADA testing.
  • Their first face-off in New York underscored the mismatch in size, with Paul towering over Davis and bending down to meet his eye line.
  • Davis questioned the announced 195-pound limit during the presser, public reaction centered on safety and legitimacy concerns, and ticket presales open Sept. 23 with general sales Sept. 24.
