Fans are showing little interest in the upcoming controversial bout between Jake Paul and Gervonta Davis, as ticket prices have been cut in half. The exhibition match is scheduled to take place in Miami on November 14, drawing criticism for the significant weight difference between the fighters. Paul, who usually competes at cruiserweight, notably moved up to heavyweight for a previous victory over Mike Tyson.
On the other hand, ‘Tank’ Davis typically fights at lightweight. Amid confusion regarding the fight’s rules, it has been revealed that the exhibition will consist of 10 rounds with three-minute rounds and a maximum weight limit of 195lb. Both fighters will wear 12-ounce gloves during the match.
Despite the details of the event, fan enthusiasm seems lacking, with ticket prices dropping significantly. Tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster, Viagogo, and StubHub, with prices starting at £139 ($186) on Viagogo. The costliest ringside ticket was listed at £4,043 ($5,413), while StubHub offered tickets from £131 ($223) with ringside seats priced at £9,480 ($12,686).
As of October 30, Ticketmaster’s cheapest standard admission ticket was priced at £69.58 ($91.50), while the most expensive ringside ticket reached £2,080 ($2,736). For a premium experience, the Diamond VIP Package was available for £22,807 ($30,000) at the time of publication.
During a press conference, Paul expressed his determination to deliver a knockout performance in November, emphasizing his anticipation for an impactful victory. Davis, on the other hand, highlighted his speed advantage over Paul and predicted a challenging fight due to the height disparity between them.
The showdown between Paul and Davis is set for November 14 at the Kaseya Center in Florida, with the main event expected to begin around 4 am UK time. The fight will be broadcast on Netflix, available to subscribers across various payment plans ranging from £5.99 to £18.99 per month.
