WBA lightweight boxing champ Gervonta Davis held on domestic battery charges in Florida
WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis has been arrested again on a domestic violence charge. As seen in jail records obtained by Daily Mail, Davis is now facing a battery charge after being arrested in the early hours of Friday morning in Miami Beach, Florida. Fox Sports Radio's Andy Slater is reporting that Davis is accused of his hitting his ex-girlfriend on the back of the head and slapping her. According to the alleged incident took place on June 15 outside the ex-girlfriend's home. Police pulled him over after running his plates and learning he had an outstanding warrant. He was previously accused of domestic violence in 2023 by Vanessa Posso, who is the mother of Davis' daughter. Posso has since publicly withdrawn her abuse allegations. Davis was arrested in December of 2022 in Florida on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge after allegedly striking a woman with a 'closed hand-type slap' and leaving her with an abrasion on her lip, according to a Broward County Sheriff's Office incident report. A recording of the alleged victim's 911 call was released by TMZ: 'He's going to kill me! I need help, please! I'm trying to go home. I have my baby in the car, and he attacked me in front of the kid. And, now he's messing up my tires!' Later in December, Posso said on Instagram that Davis was not guilty of domestic violence. She wrote: 'These past days have been hurtful, and extremely exhausting for all parties involved. I pride myself on being extremely private; this situation was the last thing I wanted to be made public. 'The state of our relationship has been in a fragile space and Gervonta and I were both at fault for the argument. 'While the emotions were running high I made an unnecessary call to law enforcement at an intense moment while I was frantic. Gervonta did not harm me or our daughter. 'Today, we have sought the help necessary to move forward with our lives. I am confident that we will succeed within our co-parenting dynamic with the counselling provided to us.' Davis broke his silence in an Instagram post he later deleted to deny the accusation. He wrote: 'I NEVER PUT MY HANDS ON MY CHILD MOTHER NOR MY F***ING DAUGHTER ARE YOU F***ING CRAZY!!' Davis wrote. 'I'M NOT A MONSTER.' Posso and Davis later reunited and in 2023, announced that they were expecting a second child. The lightweight champion previously surrendered to Florida police after he grabbed the throat of another ex-girlfriend at a charity basketball game in 2020. In 2017, assault charges against Davis were dropped after he allegedly punched childhood friend in the head. He was then accused of getting into a fight with a man at a mall in Virginia and was charged with disorderly conduct after a street brawl in 2018. Davis is 30-0-1 after coming away with a controversial draw against Lamont Roach Jr. back in March when referee Steve Willis neglected to deduct a point when Davis took a knee in the ninth. Roach's team filed a complaint, but the New York State Athletic Commission refused to overtun the result, stating that "the referee's call was not outcome-determinative.
