Report: Former NBA Player Glen Davis Targeted for Jake Paul's PPV Boxing Card

Glen "Big Baby" Davis has been out of the NBA for seven years, but he may be about to start boxing.

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium, Jake Paul is looking to make Davis a part of his Aug. 13 card.

The original plan was for Davis to fight Larry Sanders, but Paul is now looking for a different opponent for Davis since he is playing in the BIG3 basketball league.

Davis played in the NBA for eight seasons, with the Boston Celtics, Los Angeles Clippers, and the Magic.

He won an NBA championship with the Celtics as a reserve in his first season.

During his career, Davis was mostly a bench player, starting 121 of the 518 games he appeared in, and averaging 8.0 points and 4.4 rebound per contest.

Prior to entering the NBA as a second-round pick in the 2007 NBA draft, Davis dominated collegiately at LSU, earning 2006 SEC Player of the Year honors.

Davis played professionally in Canada after his NBA career ended, and he also won a championship with Power in the BIG3 league.

If the 36-year-old from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, does strike a deal to fight, he will be the latest in a long line of athletes to compete on Paul's pay-per-view cards.

Paul defeated former UFC fighters Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley in fights after knocking out former NBA guard Nate Robinson.

The undercard of the event featuring Paul vs. Woodley had a former NBA guard beating a former NFL running back.

If Davis reaches an agreement with Paul, he will face another non-boxing athlete making their in-ring debut as a pugilist.
