Watch: Gervonta Davis Slaps Phone Out Of A Fan’s Hand

Footage has emerged of undefeated boxing star Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis getting physical with a fan who was trying to take a selfie with him.

The incident occurred this past weekend at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.

Davis and many others from the Premier Boxing Champions stable had been in attendance in support of the Danny Garcia vs Shawn Porter WBC welterweight title match.

Davis and a number of other star fighters had been doing a bit of self-promotion back stage and around the arena – with various videos emerging afterwards of him, Adrien Broner, Errol Spence and other boxers all together.

A formidable group of people to be walking around together.

Pretty much an army in street fighting terms, when you think of the damage a group of five or six world-class pro boxers could do on a night out together.

At one point a fan came right up next to Gervonta Davis here and it didn’t go down too well with ‘Tank’:

(Hat tip Calderon Boxing YouTube):

In recent times Davis has been at odds with his promoter and mentor Floyd Mayweather.

It is unclear at this time when Davis will box next or against who.

He was in line to fight Abner Mares next but no official announcement on venue or date has been forthcoming as of yet.
