Jake Paul blasted as \u201cdummy\u201d over $2 million bet with world champ Gervonta Davis Instagram: Jake Paul\/WikiMedia: IceboxLightweight world champion Gervonta \u2018Tank\u2019 Davis labeled Jake Paul a \u201cdummy\u201d over his proposed $2 million wager across multiple boxing events. Even though he\u2019s been out of the ring since December, Jake Paul hasn\u2019t ventured too far away from the world of boxing. In fact, he\u2019s turned up his trash talk game as he\u2019s been promoting fights and signing new fighters. As a result, the YouTuber-turned-boxer has been locked in a war of words with a few fighters, with the most recent coming in the form of Gervonta \u2018Tank\u2019 Davis \u2013 one of Floyd Mayweather\u2019s understudies, and someone Jake has beefed with before. The pair crossed paths again on May 21 when Jake predicted that Davis would lose his upcoming world title fight with Rolando Romero and wanted to make a sizeable wager on his prediction. After \u2018Tank\u2019 bit back at his prediction, Jake threw out the idea of a $2 million bet. However, Davis backed out of that, prompting the social media star to call him \u201cmini man\u201d and a \u201cf**king b**ch\u201d on Instagram. With Davis facing the media ahead of his fight with Romero, the lightweight star was quizzed on his interaction with Jake, and he didn\u2019t hold back. The WBA titleholder called Jake a \u201cdummy\u201d for what he\u2019d said but noted that the whole interaction could have a positive spin for himself. \u201cContinue to do that and you\u2019re going to make people tune into my fights!\u201d he told FightHubTV. Timestamp of 1:00 While Jake typically takes aim at people he might fight down the fight, a bout between himself and Davis is unlikely to happen given the sizable weight difference between the pair. He might have the last laugh about the whole thing when the undefeated lightweight takes on Romero on May 28, but we\u2019ll have to wait and see on that front.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
