WBA lightweight boxing champ Gervonta Davis held on domestic battery charges in Florida
WBA lightweight champion Gervonta Davis has been arrested again on a domestic violence charge. As seen in jail records obtained by Daily Mail, Davis is now facing a battery charge after being arrested in the early hours of Friday morning in Miami Beach, Florida. Fox Sports Radio's Andy Slater is reporting that Davis is accused of his hitting his ex-girlfriend on the back of the head and slapping her. According to the alleged incident took place on June 15 outside the ex-girlfriend's home. Police pulled him over after running his plates and learning he had an outstanding warrant. He was previously accused of domestic violence in 2023 by Vanessa Posso, who is the mother of Davis' daughter. Posso has since publicly withdrawn her abuse allegations. Davis was arrested in December of 2022 in Florida on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge after allegedly striking a woman with a 'closed hand-type slap' and leaving her with an abrasion on her lip, according to a Broward County Sheriff's Office incident report. A recording of the alleged victim's 911 call was released by TMZ: 'He's going to kill me! 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!' Later in December, Posso said on Instagram that Davis was not guilty of domestic violence. She wrote: 'These past days have been hurtful, and extremely exhausting for all parties involved. I pride myself on being extremely private; this situation was the last thing I wanted to be made public. 'The state of our relationship has been in a fragile space and Gervonta and I were both at fault for the argument. 'While the emotions were running high I made an unnecessary call to law enforcement at an intense moment while I was frantic. Gervonta did not harm me or our daughter. 'Today, we have sought the help necessary to move forward with our lives. I am confident that we will succeed within our co-parenting dynamic with the counselling provided to us.' Davis broke his silence in an Instagram post he later deleted to deny the accusation. He wrote: 'I NEVER PUT MY HANDS ON MY CHILD MOTHER NOR MY F***ING DAUGHTER ARE YOU F***ING CRAZY!!' Davis wrote. 'I'M NOT A MONSTER.' Posso and Davis later reunited and in 2023, announced that they were expecting a second child. The lightweight champion previously surrendered to Florida police after he grabbed the throat of another ex-girlfriend at a charity basketball game in 2020. In 2017, assault charges against Davis were dropped after he allegedly punched childhood friend in the head. He was then accused of getting into a fight with a man at a mall in Virginia and was charged with disorderly conduct after a street brawl in 2018. Davis is 30-0-1 after coming away with a controversial draw against Lamont Roach Jr. back in March when referee Steve Willis neglected to deduct a point when Davis took a knee in the ninth. Roach's team filed a complaint, but the New York State Athletic Commission refused to overtun the result, stating that "the referee's call was not outcome-determinative.

Florida Panthers fans break Guinness World Record for loudest roar amid NHL goal horn controversy
The Florida Panthers delivered a dominant 6-1 win over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, but it wasn't just the scoreboard turning heads. Fans at Amerant Bank Arena made history by breaking the Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd roar—an achievement amplified by an ironic twist: the team's iconic goal horn failed to work. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Panthers' Game 3 Win overshadowed by NHL technical glitch and Guinness record-breaking crowd roar The Florida Panthers delivered a commanding 6-1 win over the Edmonton Oilers in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final, but it wasn't just their offensive performance making headlines. Fans at Amerant Bank Arena made history by breaking the Guinness World Record for the loudest crowd roar at an indoor sports event, registering a thunderous 130.9 decibels. What makes this moment even more remarkable—and controversial—is the fact that the team's goal horn was completely non-functional during the game. Due to an electrical issue, the iconic horn failed to sound even once, leaving fans to fill the silence. And fill it they did—with record-breaking energy that became the true soundtrack of the night. According to sports personality Andy Slater, the deafening noise from Panthers fans was officially recognized by Guinness, adding an unexpected twist to an already intense Game 3. The roar surpassed levels typically associated with a jet engine or live concert, showing the world just how passionate Florida's fan base truly is. The game itself was a statement. Florida capitalized on early power plays and never looked back. Brad Marchand struck first just 56 seconds in, followed by goals from Sam Reinhart, Sam Bennett, Aaron Ekblad, and Evan Rodrigues. Sergei Bobrovsky stood tall with 32 saves, keeping the Oilers at bay and helping the Panthers take a 2-1 lead in the series. But despite the on-ice dominance, questions are now being raised about the NHL's preparedness for high-stakes events. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now How does a critical piece of in-game atmosphere—like the goal horn—malfunction during the Stanley Cup Final without a backup plan? For fans, it turned into an opportunity. For the league, it could be seen as a misstep on hockey's biggest stage. Also Read: Florida Panthers head coach Paul Maurice remained focused on what's ahead. Emphasizing the need for a 'mental reset,' he reminded everyone that each game starts at zero. Last year's playoff run taught them not to get comfortable, even with a lead.
