American boxer Gervonta Davis was sentenced today in court in his native city of Baltimore for a November 2020 hit-and-run accident. The sentence will see the WBA ‘Regular’ Lightweight champion spend 90 days in house arrest which will also force him to remain at the home of his trainer, Calvin Ford, until that period resides.

In addition to his house arrest, Gervonta Davis (29-0, 27 KO’s) will be subject to three years of probation and will also have to complete 200 hours of community service. His sentencing stems from a 2020 accident in which he hit the passenger side of another car in the late hours of night in the city of Baltimore, after running a red light. Four people got injured because of the accident which Davis reportedly fled from, including a pregnant woman.

Aside from his sentence which is not likely to jeopardize his boxing career, Davis also has a pending civil case stemming from the pregnant woman that was hit during his hit-and-run accident.

Broward County ― a county in the southern Florida in which he currently resides ― has additionally been reported to have filed a case against Gervonta Davis which stems back to the domestic case he was alleged to have been the aggressor in. Notably, Broward County have made no mention of the retraction of Davis’ alleged victim, the mother of one of his children, and seems intent on pursuing a case against Gervonta Davis regardless. That case is set for a trial on May 26th.

The sentence for Davis to remain at his coach’s home is an interesting fact given the two have a noted close relationship that goes back all the way since Gervonta Davis’ childhood. Speculatively, the judge might have taken Calvin Ford’s role into shaping Davis, as a child and adult, into account in order to ensure he is around the most helpful personages in his life.
