Glen “Big Baby” Davis is known for playing professional basketball — but boxing might be next on the list for the former Celtics champion.
Jake Paul wants Davis to fight in a preliminary round for his next fight in August.

Davis, 36, played nine seasons in the NBA — most recently in 2014-15 with the Los Angeles Clippers. Since then, he’s participated in Ice Cube’s BIG3 basketball tournament.
