Gervonta Davis, the former three-division titleholder, is currently a wanted man. A civil attorney representing a woman who sued him for alleged violent treatment is on a mission to serve him with legal documents, but the search has been fruitless. Despite multiple attempts, the attorney, Richard Wolfe, has been unable to locate Davis, who is suspected to be in Baltimore. The WBA has responded to Davis' legal troubles by stripping him of his lightweight belt, leaving contenders like Floyd Schofield Jnr to vie for the title.
The situation is further complicated by Davis' recent controversial behavior. He hasn't fought since a March draw against Lamont Roach Jnr, where the referee's decision was highly debated. This, coupled with his domestic violence issues, led to the cancellation of both the Roach rematch and an exhibition against Jake Paul. The civil attorney's efforts to serve Davis are separate from law enforcement's attempts to locate him, but both are determined to hold him accountable for his alleged crimes.
The woman, who previously had a relationship with Davis, claims he bruised her during an incident in October. He allegedly grabbed her at her workplace, forced her into a parking garage, and attempted to drive her away before she escaped. The civil lawsuit seeks damages, but the exact amount is unknown, as Florida law allows victims to file for damages exceeding $50,000 without specifying the exact figure.
Despite the challenges, Richard Wolfe remains confident that Davis will be brought to justice. He expressed his determination to present his client's testimony in court, ensuring that Davis faces the consequences of his actions.
