Miami Beach, Florida. – The professional boxer Gervonta “Tank” Davis was arrested early Friday in southern Florida for a minor crime of domestic violence.
Davis, 30, was collected shortly after midnight near the popular Lincoln Road area of Miami Beach, authorities said.
The position was connected to an incident that occurred last month in Doral, a residential city in western Miami-Dade, said Miami Beach Police spokesman Beach, Christopher Bess. Davis and his vehicle information had been added to a law application database, and a registration reader established in Miami Beach marked his car.
The Miami Beach police made the initial stop and then handed Davis to the Doral Police, said Bess.
Davis was stopped with a bail of $ 10,000. The prison and judicial records did not list a lawyer for Davis. Its promoter did not immediately respond to an email in search of comments.
Davis, who is Baltimore, is in the regular conversation to the best pound boxer for Libra. The light weight champion of the AMB won his first 30 fights, 28 per Knockout, with his devastating punching power attracting New York crowds to Washington to Las Vegas.
But Davis was booed during his most recent fight. Despite being an overwhelming favorite, he had a lower performance on March 1 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, but escaped with a majority draw against Lamont Roach that allowed Davis to retain his belt.
The decision of the referee Steve Willis not rewarding Roach a fall in the ninth round finally changed the result of the fight.
Whether this performance was unique for Davis or an indication of a decline fighter, the crowds are still likely to see Davis if he returns to the ring after his most recent legal problems.
He was sentenced to 90 days of house arrest for an outrage in November 2020 in Baltimore that injured several people. Davis finally fulfilled the rest of the sentence in jail after registering in a luxury hotel and then a new house without court permission.
Davis was also accused in two other cases of domestic violence, both in southern Florida. The first case was discharged, according to ESPN. The second was fired after the woman refused to press the charges.
