Gervonta Davis has denied allegations that he struck a woman Tuesday afternoon in Parkland, Florida, calling the accusations “bull—-.”.
The lightweight contender, who was arrested and released on bail, seemed to say on the post that he had an argument with the mother of his daughter while he was watching “Frozen” with the child but he insisted that he didn’t resort to violence.
“I NEVER PUT MY HANDS ON MY CHILD MOTHER NOR MY F—ING DAUGHTER ARE YOU F—ING CRAZY!! IM NOT A MONSTER,” he said.
He also seemed to say in the long post that the incident was an attempt by his accuser to get money out of him.
Davis was charged with misdemeanor domestic violence after allegedly slapping the woman on the right side of her face by what was described in a police report as a “closed hand,” which caused an abrasion in her upper lip.
The police report indicated that he “did actually and intentionally touch and strike [the woman] against her will [and] did intentionally cause bodily harm to her.”
Audio of the alleged victim’s 911 call was obtained by multiple outlets. She reportedly told the operator: “I need help, please! I’m trying to go home. I have my baby in the car, and he attacked me in front of the kid. And, now he’s messing up my tires!” She then paused and said, “Please, help me! He’s going to kill me!”
The call was disconnected but she called back, adding, “I need to go home, I’m in danger right now!”
Police received one more call from a woman who claimed Davis spat at her.
The incident took place around 1:25 p.m. Tuesday. He was arrested at 2:50 p.m.
Davis is scheduled to fight Hector Luis Garcia in a 135-pound pay-per-view bout Jan. 7 at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. His handlers have not made an announcement on the status of the fight.
The 28-year-old also has agreed to meet fellow social media star Ryan Garcia next year.
Davis has a second case pending. He is due in court on Feb. 16 for an alleged hit-and-run accident on Nov. 5, 2020 in his hometown of Baltimore. Four people were injured in the crash.
