Huge problems. Police issue arrest warrant for popular world champion
World lightweight champion (up to 61.2 kg), American Gervonta Davis (30-0-1, 28 KOs) faced major problems; police issued a warrant for his arrest.
The WBA titleholder is accused of domestic violence, according to ESPN. The order was issued under various articles: illegal imprisonment, attempted kidnapping, beating and others.
Miami Gardens Police Department spokesman Emmanuel Jeanty said law enforcement is currently trying to locate Gervonta.
Davis has had repeated troubles with the law, and in October 2025, he was involved in an incident involving his ex-girlfriend, Courtney Rossel. Allegedly, the American boxer came to the strip club where she was working as a waiter and beat and threatened her.
Police confirmed Courtney’s statement after reviewing CCTV footage.
