Gervonta Davis has a fight in just a week and a half.

Gervonta Davis is going to be fighting against Ryan Garcia later this year in what should be a huge fight. Firstly, he must take care of business on January 7th against Hector Luis Garcia. This is a match he is expected to win, however, this fight could now be in jeopardy.

According to TMZ, Davis was arrested for domestic violence last night, and as of right now, he is still in prison. Overall, he was hit with a battery domestic violence charge. This is certainly not good, and fans are now curious as to what this means for his future.

Gervonta Davis Updates

At the time of writing this, the allegations that led to Davis' arrest have not been made public. However, it is known that Davis was arrested in Florida and is currently in Broward County. He ended up getting his mugshot taken, but very little else is known at this point.

For now, he is expected to post bail, although it has yet to happen just yet. It is an unfortunate situation all around, especially since Davis has been arrested for domestic violence before. In 2020, Davis was arrested after punching his ex-girlfriend while attending a sporting event.
