Davis has not won a fight since June 2024, with his solitary outing since being a controversial draw against Lamont Roach Jr last March \u2013 a fight which many fans believe should have cost Davis his undefeated record.<\/p>\n
\u2018Tank\u2019 was then scheduled to face Jake Paul, but he was mentioned in a civil lawsuit \u2013 which cites violent behaviour, battery and kidnapping \u2013 two weeks before the fight, resulting in the cancellation of the event.<\/p>\n
The 31-year-old has since been arrested<\/a> and stripped of his WBA lightweight world title, with a potential return to the ring seemingly on hold until his situation outside of it has been cleared up.<\/p>\n Yet, in an interview with All The Smoke Fight<\/a>, trainer and father of Devin Haney, Bill, revealed that Davis still sits atop the hit list for the WBO welterweight ruler.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s about 10 names on the list.

The return of Gervonta Davis is up in the air but there may be a title fight waiting for him in the welterweight division should he return.
