Jake Paul Rips Gervonta Davis for his performance against Isaac Cruz: “I thought he lost, he had a clown show”

By: Hans Themistode

For the first time in Gervonta Davis’ career, the tough Baltimore-born was up against an opponent that would not succumb to his normal strength.

The three-division and current WBA “Regular” lightweight belt defended his crown Saturday night against Isaac Cruz in front of a large crowd at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

Cruz, 23, fought Davis on most even terms, despite being rated as a significantly underdog. When the final bell rang, Davis was relieved to be awarded a close but clear decisive victory.

However, while Davis manages to escape with his world title still in his arms and his unbeaten record still intact, Jake Paul believes Cruz has been awarded a deal. raw favorable.

“I think he lost,” Paul said at a recent conference call. “I think a lot of people would say the same.”

Paul, who is gearing up for a return to the ring on December 18, at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida, against Tyron Woodley, went into great detail about how Davis should have received his first defeat in the fight. Karma. Or worst of all, a draw.

“I think they will draw. He hurt his hand or whatever. In three rounds, he didn’t throw a left-hander and several judges awarded those rounds to him. Of course, the nearby spins will be thrown to Gervonta but I think he lost. Obviously, since he’s signed to Mayweather Promotions, Al Haymon and we know how dirty boxing can be. The judges are being properly paid.”

As Paul evades, Davis reveals that his struggles against Cruz were, in part, a direct result of his injury to his left hand. However, regardless of his medical condition and considering their long history of trash talk back and forth on social media, Paul couldn’t help but return support.

“He called me a clown but he gave a clown performance.”
