Boxer Gervonta Davis’s Sentencing Unveiled for Involvement in Hit-and-Run Incident

The boxing pound-for-pound superstar’s career has been put on hold after his sentencing in Baltimore, Maryland.

Davis admitted to fleeing the scene of a car accident in 2020, after his Lamborghini Urus smashed into a car carrying four people – including a pregnant woman.

Davis was in the car with two other people when he ran a red light.

All three left the scene before officers could assist.

The fighter entered a guilty plea including a sentence of 60 days of unsupervised home detention.

One of the passengers in the other car, Jyair Smith, spoke out against the plea deal.

“I begged Mr. Gervonta Davis, I looked him in his eyes,” Davis said.

“I said, ‘I have to get home to my daughter, I’m pregnant.’ He never once came over to help me.”

The 90-day house arrest is a far cry from the maximum penalty of 50 months in prison if found guilty.

The new sentencing comes days after Davis secured a significant win over fighting superstar Ryan Garcia.

Davis destroyed Garcia in their hugely-anticipated catchweight clash with a seventh-round body shot KO.

The rousing defeat catapulted Davis’ stardom, with many speculating he may be the new face of the sport.

Now, his sentence calls into question if he will be allowed into the boxing ring again.

The fight was allowed to take place after sentencing was delayed so the pair could finally clash.

In a separate incident, Broward County Police arrested Davis in February after he allegedly hit a woman using a “closed hand type slap.”

The woman suffered a small cut on the inside of her mouth from the alleged contact, according to the incident report.
