Amir Khan has the coming exhibition fight between Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis beaten.
The former uniform champion of the light-writ weight fears that something can go very wrong if they fight on November 14.
Jake Paul is 6ft 1 long and weighed on 227 pounds during his 12-1 professional boxing career.
30-0-1 Gervonta Davis is the much more experienced boxer, but he is at 5ft 5 in and usually weighs less than 135 pounds for his fights, which makes Amir Khan nervous for the controversial exhibition mismatch.

Amir Khan Slams Jake Paul vs. Gervonta Davis
Amir Khan fears that something bad could happen due to the rise of crossover boxing.
'King' knows everything about being in a mismatch after he was poorly eliminated in 2016 by Canelo Alvarez.
“I mean, it's disgusting, and you know, someone will eventually be very badly injured in all this exhibition of Boxing,” Khan said when he was asked about Paul vs. Davis by Sunsport.
“That is why I respect Turki Alshikh that he does not want him to have nothing to do with these YouTubers and these exhibition fights. And not just that, how can you take it seriously? You look at this weight difference.
“It is a mismatch, and I just hope that one day someone is not injured, that boxing will put down.
“And that is why, if you look at the sport, this is the reason why MMA is doing so well, and that people respect it more. You don't let these dummies come in and fight a real MMA hunter, do you know what I say?”
Jake Paul agrees to test drug tests
Paul has silenced the haters by agreeing with the 'strictest drug tests that may be' prior to his fight with Davis.
During his boxing career, the 28-year-old has confronted with unfounded accusations of steroids.
Paul is ready to prove that he is a clean athlete, with some help from the anti-doping agency of the United States [USADA].
“Don't worry. For all of you karens who accuse me of steroids as the reason to win all my fights, we have the strictest drug test that may be for this fight,” he said on his YouTube channel.
“US anti-doping agency. Random drug tests at any time.”
In the next drug test Skit, Paul stood on it: “Clean like a piece of cake. Contrary to what they say.”
