Boxing Legend May Replace Gervonta Davis in Fight Against Jake Paul

Gervonta Davis is expected to withdraw from his upcoming fight against Jake Paul due to recent legal troubles, according to multiple reports.

Davis, the WBA lightweight boxing champion, was scheduled to fight Paul on November 14th in Miami. However, a civil lawsuit filed by his former girlfriend alleging multiple violent incidents and kidnapping may lead to his withdrawal.

The victim has sought damages against Davis instead of criminal prosecution, similar to a separate incident earlier this summer involving the controversial fighter.

No comment from Davis on his ongoing legal battles.

A legendary name has reportedly been approached to potentially replace Davis in the fight against Paul.
