Boxing champion Gervonta Davis is once again in the headlines — but this time, it’s not for his moves in the ring. The star fighter was sued on Thursday by Courtney Rossel, a woman who claims Davis physically assaulted her at a Miami strip club earlier this week. According to the lawsuit filed in Miami-Dade County, Rossel says she and Davis had been involved in a private relationship for five months, but it turned violent on multiple occasions.
In her court filing, Rossel alleged that Davis accused her of cheating on September 23 and sent her a chilling message threatening to kill her. She further claims that during her shift as a VIP cocktail waitress at the famed Tootsies Cabaret, Davis found her in the lounge, dragged her through several areas of the club, and attacked her in the parking garage — choking, pushing, and striking her. The incident, she said, left her bruised, humiliated, and fearful for her life, prompting her to seek medical and psychological help.
Rossel is demanding unspecified damages and says the abuse has continued even after the alleged assault. While it’s unclear if criminal charges have been filed, Miami Gardens Police confirm Davis has been named as a suspect in a recent report.
