Terence Crawford Says Paul–Davis Won’t Be a ‘Real Fight’ Ahead of Nov. 14 Netflix Bout

He characterizes it as an exhibition that favors Jake Paul’s size.

Overview

  • Speaking on the Full Send podcast, Crawford said the matchup looks like a money-driven exhibition rather than a legitimate contest and predicted the fighters would “go in there and spar.”
  • Crawford forecasted that Jake Paul could prevail due to youth and size, saying one clean right hand might be enough to decide it against Gervonta Davis.
  • The bout is announced for November 14 on Netflix, with Paul stating a 195-pound target while Davis typically competes at 135 pounds and is significantly shorter.
  • Coverage notes uncertainty over sanctioning and format, with suggestions the bout may be treated as an exhibition that might not count on Davis’s professional record.
  • Reaction remains polarized, as Amir Khan condemned the matchup as dangerous, while Paul’s camp has promoted agreement to the strictest drug testing possible.
