Rules Finalized as Jake Paul, Gervonta Davis Hold First Face-Off for Netflix Bout

Florida cleared the matchup as an exhibition under a 195-pound cap with 12-ounce gloves, commission scoring, plus USADA testing.

Overview

  • The exhibition is set for Nov. 14 at Miami’s Kaseya Center and will stream globally on Netflix.
  • MVP’s Nakisa Bidarian confirmed a 195-pound maximum, ten three-minute rounds, 12-ounce gloves, and three commission-approved judges who will declare a winner.
  • Despite being scored, the result will not be added to either fighter’s professional record under the exhibition framework.
  • The New York launch press conference produced the first face-off, underscoring Paul’s eight-inch height edge and a recent weight gap of roughly 60 pounds.
  • The event moved from Atlanta after Georgia regulators signaled they would not sanction the matchup due to the size disparity.
