Daniel Cormier gave surprising reaction to Jake Paul fighting Gervonta Davis… ‘Without a shadow of a doubt’

Daniel Cormier praises Jake Paul for fighting Gervonta Davis

Daniel Cormier has praised Jake Paul for agreeing to set foot inside the ring with Gervonta Davis.

The 46-year-old believes the social media star has silenced the critics.

In a video uploaded to his YouTube channel, ‘DC’ said: “Jake Paul is fighting Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis. There’s one problem — he fights at 135lbs.

“Gervonta Davis is that much better than Jake Paul at boxing, but Gervonta Davis in his last fight weighed 133.8lbs.

“I’m not over here in the business of slamming Jake Paul. I am much more respectful of what he’s trying to build as a professional boxer.

“You’re fighting a guy who’s better than you; he’s just much smaller. But because he’s better than you, what if he wins? Everything Jake Paul has done is wiped completely out.

“Gervonta Davis loses to Jake Paul, obviously, it’s going to hurt who Gervonta Davis is, but he lost to a guy that’s going to be upwards of 70lbs bigger than him when he sets foot in the boxing ring.

“I will tell you this right now, without a shadow of doubt, I will watch this.

“Tank Davis is 30-0-1. You want to talk about Jake Paul fighting a real boxer, that’s a real boxer.”

Does Jake Paul or Gervonta Davis have more to lose in their controversial fight?

Suffering a loss for either man would be nothing short of horrendous.

A defeat for Paul against someone so much lighter would be disastrous for his brand.

And for the world champion, falling short against a content creator would be beyond embarrassing.

With that in mind, a legend said whether Paul or Davis has more to lose.
