With Christmas just a month away, thanksgiving has already chimed in the festive mood all over the globe, and the boxing world is no exception.

Amid fight camps, boxers have found ways to celebrate thanksgiving and send love to the fans all over. While few of them appeared to have had a great time with family, some of them honed themselves at the gym. It made sense for Gervonta Davis and Jake Paul, who have their fights in less than a month.

Post-thanksgiving is all action for Gervonta Davis, Jake Paul, and others

After all the celebration, it will be time for serious work, and WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis seems to know it pretty well. ‘Tank’ will defend his 135 lbs belt against Isaac ‘Pitbull’ Cruz on December 5 and in no way shall sleep on his nearing rival. The same is with Jake Paul, who will take on Tommy Fury on December 18.

After a successful 4-0 run, Paul will compete against a pro-boxer for the first time in his career. Tommy Fury is also undefeated and has 7 wins under his name as a pro-boxer. So this sheer intensity will demand a lot from ‘The Problem Child’. And it justifies Paul’s training, even on the day of Thanksgiving.
