Boxing world champ Gervonta “Tank” Davis was arrested on a domestic violence charge in Florida Tuesday, in response to jail records.
The 28-year-old boxing star was booked into Broward County jail on the battery charge, records show.
Details of the arrest and alleged domestic violence incident weren’t immediately available.
Davis has prior domestic violence arrest. In 2020, he was captured on video forcefully grabbing his ex-girlfriend — and the mother of his child — by the throat at a charity basketball game on the University of Miami.
Davis surrendered to police days after the video circulated on Twitter and was charged with easy battery domestic violence.
The victim suffered injuries to her lip and jaw, in response to the arrest report on the time.
Davis is ready to fight against Hector Luis Garcia in Washington, DC on Jan. 7. It’s unclear if his Tuesday arrest will affect the match.
The Baltimore native has held multiple world championship titles in three weight classes — including the WBA lightweight title since 2019.
He stays undefeated greater than nine years into his skilled boxing profession with 27 wins and nil losses.
