The two meet in a spectacle showdown on November 14 in Miami.

But amid the FIVE STONE weight difference, the bout cannot be professionally sanctioned or count towards their records.

Bigger 12oz gloves were also due to be in place while Paul cannot weigh over 195lb for the fight contested over ten, three-minute rounds.

But Davis’ coach Calvin Ford called for a change of the rules to allow the two to box in 10oz gloves – sparking a back and forth.

Paul, 28, said: “You guys were the ones that wanted 12oz gloves, not me. I’ll do eight. F***, I’ll do four, I’ll do 2oz. I’ll do bare-knuckle.

“So what do you want? Ten-ounce, 8oz? The 12oz came from your guys’ side.”

But Davis, 30, interjected: “No it did not.”

And Paul responded: “Perfect. Then what do you want ten? So 10oz?

“Perfect, it doesn’t matter to him so back to what I always wanted which was 10oz.”

Paul doubled down and claimed to have proof Davis’ side requested the heavier 12oz gloves.

But he concluded: “Let’s do it, that’s great. That’s going to make it more exciting for the fans. Thank God, I wanted 10s really badly. Let’s do it.”

Before the press conference ended, Davis and Paul agreed on a $2m (£1.5m) bet and even shook hands.

But Davis appeared to back out of the bet just hours later, posting online: “He was never getting that 2 mil..idgaf what happens.”

Paul beat ex-middleweight world champ Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, 39, in his last fight in June to earn himself a No14 WBA cruiserweight ranking.

Meanwhile, Davis drew with Lamont Roach, 30, in March and snubbed the rematch to instead face Paul.
