Just days after one of boxing’s most anticipated fights between Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia was confirmed, now a lawsuit for Davis for an alleged assault on a parking lot worker in the boxer’s environment.
According to the statements of Arturo Jiménez, author of the lawsuit through his team of lawyers, during the beginning of his shift in an Edison ParkFast parking lot in New York when Davis allegedly arrived requesting the keys to his Cadillac Escalade.
However, since Jiménez was with another customer at that time, he could not attend to the boxer, who would have gotten upset and told the parking lot “stop playing with me.”
Subsequently, the event for which Jiménez sued Davis would have occurred, when Tank “hit” the worker in the chest, which according to the report ended up causing him “multiple bodily injuries.”
After the incident, a colleague took him away to avoid further damage while Davis would have stayed insulting the workers, demanding the car keys and refusing to pay the fee, although minutes later he canceled and left.
According to Jiménez’s lawsuit, the affected party demands compensation for damages, especially since the injury prevented him from working and he invested in doctors to treat the injury.
At the moment Davis has not commented on the lawsuit, but this is not the first time that he has been sent to court for problems with the law.
Previously, in 2021, he was brought to trial for accumulating 14 traffic violations while a year later, in September 2022 days after his victory against Leo Santa Cruz, he was sued for an event in which he crashed a vehicle and ran into the escape, leaving four injured in the traffic accident.
More recently, he was accused of domestic violence by his ex-partner days before his victory against his rival, Héctor García.
