US EditionBoxing Champion Gervonta Davis Arrested on Domestic Violence Charges
DORAL, FLORIDA, JUL 11 – Gervonta Davis was charged with battery after a dispute over custody of their two children escalated to physical violence, according to police and court records.
- Gervonta Davis, a 30-year-old American boxer and current WBA lightweight titleholder, was taken into custody early Friday in Miami Beach following allegations of physical assault against his former girlfriend.
- The arrest occurred after an incident on Father’s Day when Davis arrived at his ex-girlfriend’s residence to collect their children, which led to a verbal disagreement that escalated into a physical confrontation.
- During the altercation, Davis struck the victim in the back of the head, slapped her face causing a small cut inside her lip, and was recorded throwing a small box at her by the victim’s mother.
- Davis was taken into custody at 3:35 a.m. Friday and is currently being held at the Miami-Dade County jail facility, with his bond status listed as "to be determined." He declined to complete and sign a Miranda warning form while at the police station.
- This arrest adds to Davis' previous legal issues, including a 2023 house arrest sentence for a 2020 hit-and-run crash that injured four people, and suggests continued legal challenges amid his boxing career.
