Tank Gives His Side…Then deletes post
911 Call…He’s gonna kill me!
Police Report…Slapped woman with closed hand
WBA “regular” lightweight champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis has been arrested in Florida, TMZ Sports has confirmed … just days before his scheduled fight against Hector Luis Garcia.
According to jail records, the 28-year-old was booked in Broward County on Tuesday on a battery domestic violence charge. He posed for a mug shot — and the records show as of late Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning, he was still in police custody.
Further details surrounding the allegations against Davis were not made immediately available.
The fighter is slated to step in the ring with HLG on Jan. 7 in Washington D.C., though it’s unclear if Tuesday’s arrest will change plans.
Davis — 27-0 in pro fights — is no stranger to trouble with the law … he’s been arrested several times in the past few years … including in 2020, after he was accused of roughing up his ex-girlfriend at a celebrity basketball game in Florida.
Story developing …
And, one more reason for All the elite top level boxers and their knuckle dragging Promoters to make the Biggest Dollar, highest profile fights Now, instead of Later or Never
Showtime should replace Tank with Rolly Romero.
HLG = Hector Luis Garcia.
Is this with the same female he beat and manhandled two years ago at a basketball game?
C.T.E ……… I ultimately see a Meldrick Taylor outcome here 🙁
Definitely not CTE. More like an inherited trait of his ilk.
Agree to a certain point but you only need to listen to his speech pattern to see dark times ahead
Makes more money than you, works harder than you and gets laid more than you, another inherited trait of his ilk.
Lol every time a boxer, NFL player or pro wrestler does something now the 12 year old liberal kids will say CTE.
I will be shocked if the fight does not happen. Celebs usually are above the legal system and women rarely get a fair shake in these situations. Plus, it’s only an accusation at this point.
Good post, Mr. Peltz. At this point it’s only an accusation, so I expect the fight to go on.
As for the accusation, at this point who knows if it’s true or not? I remember 16 years ago a female accused the Duke lacrosse team of gang raping her & countless people jumped to conclusions before the facts were presented. Fortunately the truth came out & the lacrosse players were vindicated in one of the biggest hoaxes in modern memory.
Good story. You mean how females can beat on guys and get away with it? You mean how females can lie about being raped and we all just believe she was raped?
I’ve got no time for wife beaters.
Agree completely. He two and oh wit baby mama’s.
He is an overt Anti-Social artist (he literally harms people for a living and he loves doing it more than anything else)…he is an Artist beating up people is his art.
If a woman wants a docile-peaceful husband there are literally lots of humble kind men who are looking to save any lady willing to give them a chance, she is not out of options, so more than likely she loves him as he is.
It’s not our business to interfere…some wives want a snappy dramatic quick reflex husband who will keep her on the edge…it’s the same reason many humans enjoy the thrill of a rollercoaster despite the discomfort it comes with.
If only it were that simple… many stay with their edgy mates because they fear the harm that would come to them and/or their loved ones if they leave, would be much worse than the everyday abuse. Lots of other unfortunate factors too.
Lol this is 2022 almost 2023. If a male even looks at a female and she presses charges the male goes to jail. Females stay with abusive females because they are idiots.
The ones who stay with guys with money is the guy has money and most females are gold diggers and materialistic.
But you are okay with a female putting her hands on a man? Typical white minded white liberal logic.
if this ppv event does happen dont buy it tank a talented boxer going down the wrong road i have no interest in this boxing match just bad all around he needs a good lawyer and family counseling and good people behind him
Is this his second knockout of female, domestic partners? This should go on his professional boxing record.
Yep some of them might be tougher than some of his actual foes..
I hope he finds the right path now, upon regrets and honesty, redemption later is not better
Why are we making the assumption that Davis did anything wrong in light of the plethora of videos showing countless false arrests, especially in Florida?
TMZ in 2!, looks likes people cant make mistakes anymore without being feed to the sharks.
Dat B howz we rolls in da hood.
In Florida? That’s all I have to know. Most likely his rights were violated, the police lost their temper, probably shouldn’t have been arrested, and I hope they get sued.
Right, he didnt beat up his girlfriend like he did before, its actually a dark shadowy conspiracy to get him
“Charlo” your name says it all. Tank is ghetto trash, there is no reason to believe he didn’t do it.
As learned the mayweather trait well.
You mean the police have learned the police trait very well, making outlandish arrests that wastes tax payer’s money. Probably got arrested because he put them in their place.
Present one piece of evidence that he was arrested because of police misconduct and not because he once AGAIN, beat up his girl friend
Uhhhh, the fact that the accuser admitted that the alleged assault didn’t take place. The fact that he gets arrested on hearsay, and that’s all the evidence I need. Are you ok with police arresting people without a thread of evidence of crime? Are you ok with that kind of misconduct?
@Charlo-100%! Why police always tryna make us take responsibity for our actions? Who they think they iz? So I slap my baby momma around when she step outta line, that ain’t nunna they business! Man, I’m tired of this Jim Crow shit! I needs to go someplace where I could do, act and say whateva I want and don’t have to pay the po-lice no neva mind!
So that’s what it’s all been about? The right to beat your wife? That was like spitting all of those fighting the Jim Crow-laws in the face.
Yo, word, dat b right on, weez all b didn du nuffins!
Possibly a bit politically incorrect.
Cops are made up of multiple ethnic groups, the only color that I’m critical about is blue–The boys on blue that is. Again, Davis probably went to jail because of poor police behavior.
His promoter should replace him, immediately. Fighters like this are a disgrace to this sport… His status is no where near, elite enough, for fans to put up with nonsense like this.
Well, sure glad the promoters are smarter then. you are, otherwise they would have violated legal contracts and lose lots of money. Looks like my assumptions are correct, Davis was arrested fort no reason other than hearsay. What a waste of tax payer’s money.
Charlo, so they are just picking on Tank? Come on. And Florida is actually one state that makes punks accountable. I’m sure you would feel the same if it was you sister, right? Clown
So given the fact that the accuser denies claims of being assaulted, what say now? Som you mean to tell me that there was just grounds to arrest Tank without a shred of evidence? I’m not claiming they’re picking on Tank. They’re picking on everyone because they’re typical cops. They’re reactive, exculpate situations and waste people’s time and money. Go after real criminals rather than trumping up charges.
No respect for the other fighter’s payday to feed his family & pay trainers…
Quite sad, Tank is a great fighter with a bright future ahead of him but its this sort of pathetic nonsense that can derail a career. These days, this sort of behavior can cost you endorsements and network coverage. The irony is, Tank really admonished Ryan Garcia for his mental health woes but at least Garcia has kept his nose clean so far. Tank is a force to be reckoned with and his handlers are best served handling him for their and his own good
You kiddin?
We’re currently living in the twilight zone where up is down, bad is good, and wrong is right!
This sort of behavior is what the MSM and social media glorify and exploit.
Yes, you are right, but at the same time, there is nothing glorifying about beating your girlfriend, it is just pathetic, even if the world is upside down, wrong is right, destructive publicity fills your wallet.
If this is true, a world boxer who beats his girlfriend, I mean, the line is definitely crossed.
This kind of action and publicity burns in a new tattoo that will follow him wherever he goes.
If this female would of hit him first you wouldn’t have a problem with it. You weak minded white males crack me up.
You guess she started everything by hitting him? What evidence do you have for that. Or do you just guess because it fits your world view? Unfortunately, there is an abundance of violent men who use violence as their only problem solver. It is not constructive. Too many are wife beaters
Even females can be mental and violent. I agree. But as a superstar in boxing you should be able to manage such situation as this one. At least if your not mentally weak. But it’s okay to have mental issues, but if you have, you also have a responsibility to do something about them.
Hopefully the truth comes out.
And another reflection. There are a number of people here who very often address race as the most important characteristic when you judge people. And it’s always the word white that pops up. Nothing else.
How do you define white? Is it always a matter of color? Or does culture come in?
Try to judge people by their characteristics instead. Everything is not always black or white. Probably it would enrich you if you tried.
@Brotha Harry- Thats what I’m talkin bout! All these ignant crackas! They be havin’ no idea what it be like to be a black man in Amerikkka! I could tell by all yo posts, youz a very intelligent brotha. Charlo too! You guys is like geniuses o sumptin!
She probably deserved it.
Free Tank & lock her up.
Dude,you start trial for leaving the scene of a car crash, now this. You can take the boy out of the ghetto…….
I didnt like him for some reason, and now i know why. Beating women? A TRUE POS.
and yet they keep coming back..1
a 135 pound man will always have issues when it comes to that fact. many women today are 165 easy and considered “fine”.. he is a small man. He will always be aggressive towards those he considers ho’s. He best get smart or he may spend his prime like Mike..
I don’t know any 165 female who is considered “fine”.
If the girl wasn’t injured, then I see nothing happening to Tank. She may not even press charges. The so-called greatest player in NFL history, Jim Brown, was said to manhandle women, including throwing one off a balcony, and his legacy has never been tarnished.
This is a true sign of a young person who has achieved a lot externally in terms of worldly success, but he has not achieved the success of becoming a whole and complete person on the inside. If he doesn’t realize this and do whatever is necessary to gain control of his inner peace, he will be destroyed. There is nothing wrong with worldly success, but it will not give you the inner peace which will allow you to enjoy your success. Let us hope he gets with some older mentors who have completed this process of finding inner peace to give him some direction and let us hope he receives it before he beats himself.
I don’t know what to say about this guy. He seemed to be maturing and suddenly he does something stupid. I wonder if he has CTE? After all, he does take blows to the head.
Isn’t slapping someone with a closed hand another way of someone that you punched them?
Maybe I am confused.
James, maybe you have to turn it over to be a punch? I noticed that weird semantic as well.
For all those, saying we need to get all the facts I have a couple thoughts:
1) I’m all for innocent until proven guilty, but this isn’t his first merry go round. Where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire.
2) Additionally, usually only two people actually know the facts in these domestic situations. And often they get them wrong, because of misunderstanding one another.
3) He’s not the first fighter (or athlete) to have personal problems and won’t be the last. Hopefully, he can figure out how to avoid these bad situations.
Maybe everyone should wait, get all the facts and then proves the situation. We are only assuming at this point!
Child molester are the ones i hate the most but women beaters or molesters come at close second.. Just watch how he looks and you can understand what sort of asshole he is..
I hope he’s going to pay for this.
Tremendous fighter, shocking individual.
Tank been watching too many Segal movies and thinks he is “Above the Law”. No matter how much money some boxers make or famous they get, you just cant take the “ghetto” out of them.
Modern Western women like two types of men the most: 1) Bad Boys, and 2) Pretty Boys. Y’all act like these chicks are always innocent. I personally know 3 men who were killed by female partners and it wasn’t because they were beating them. Remember what happened to Steve McNair? Facts!
An then there’s that. You have police officers that don’t know a. damn thing about deescalating, and women who get away with criminality all the time.
Arturo Gatti
it happens. lol
This kid is one P.O.S if there ever was. He STATED that he did not want ANYONE to tell him how to live, act or how he is to ANSWER any questions about how many warrants and charges against him.This IMBECILE thinks he can run amok and break any law that there is. He feels he can beat up any woman and can conduct himself like an IMBECILE on ROIDS.Well now this genius will have to answer to warrants,from traffic charges,beating up women, violating women and he must answer all of these many violations himself.And since he is such a tough guy,I wonder how tough he is going to be when some very LARGE guys in the joint will make him their BITCH, this could not
happen to a more DESERVING AZZCLOWN!!!!!
They should have Tank vs. Broner, and the winner gets a Get Out Of Jail Free card.
Another thug with talent. Unfortunately our sport has lots. At least we have a trans division in the works. I think I may be done with boxing for good.
