Gervonta Davis is back in legal trouble.
The star boxer was arrested on charges of battery on Thursday in Miami stemming from an alleged altercation that occurred June 15.
Davis, the WBA lightweight champion, went to his ex-partner’s house and an argument allegedly broke out that turned physical.
According to the Doral Police report obtained by WPLG Local 10, Davis insisted that the victim take the kids out of his car as he did not intend to take them anymore.
When the victim leaned into the car, Davis allegedly struck the victim in the back of the head and slapped her on the face, causing a cut on her inner lip.
Davis was being held on $10,000 bail.
Davis and the woman had been in a relationship for around four years and had two children together.
Davis, 30, was at the victim’s house that night to pick up the children for Father’s Day.
After this incident, the victim called her mother to come out and assist.
The mother allegedly saw her daughter crying after being struck by Davis.
She also reportedly recorded a part of the altercation where Davis threw a small box at the victim.
According to police, Davis refused to fill out a Miranda warning when he was brought to the police station on Friday.
Davis has a number of run-ins with the law dating back to 2019.
The most recent incident was when he allegedly struck a woman with a “closed hand type slap.”
The charges were later dropped.
Davis, according to BoxRec, is the top-ranked lightweight in the world with a 30-0-1 career record.
His last fight was in March 2025 at the Barclays Center when he was a huge favorite over Lamont Roach Jr, but tallied the only draw of his career in an underwhelming performance.
Davis was booed by the Brooklyn crowd and referee Steve Willis’ decision not to award Roach a knockdown in the ninth round ultimately changed the fight’s outcome.
