It’s safe to say Jake Paul isn’t happy about his scheduled fight against Gervonta “Tank” Davis being canceled.

Paul, whose bout with Davis was scrapped amid Davis’ latest domestic violence allegations, took to X (formerly Twitter) to air his grievances, calling Tank an “actual walking human piece of garbage.”

"Gervonta Davis is an actual walking human piece of garbage. Working with him is an absolute nightmare. The unprofessionalism, the bizarre requests, the showing up hours late to shoots. To the numerous arrests and related accusations and lawsuits," Paul said.

Paul went on to condemn those in support of Davis. "If you support this man you support the most vile sin a man can commit. I didn’t want to give this woman abuser a platform to grow his fans and to grow his bank account," he continued. "My company champions women. I’m so sorry to everyone involved. Mostly to the undercard fighters, to my team at MVP and to my team who worked so hard prepping for this fight. Sacrificing time with loved ones and kids just for this fool to lose his unintelligent mind again. It’s scary that devilish men like this can rise to the top of culture and sports, including in positions of power."

Before ending his note bashing Tank, he took a moment to call Davis out for his "fake" choice of clothing. "I hope you people moving forward look beyond his fake streetwear pieces “SWAG” and search for something deeper to be a fan of," he said. "As for me it’s on to the next one as always. Anyone. Anytime. Any place. - Jake."

Earlier this week, Paul was reportedly said to be seeking fighters to replace Gervonta “Tank” Davis following the boxer’s strip club civil suit, with Paul’s camp allegedly already extending an offer to Ryan Garcia.

On Monday, it was announced that Paul’s fight with Davis has been canceled after new domestic violence allegations surfaced. A civil lawsuit filed in Miami in October accuses Davis of battery and kidnapping, marking the latest in a series of abuse claims against the boxer.
