Rumors suggesting that Gervonta Davis might be retiring from boxing have been called ‘fake news’ by his coach, Kenny Ellis.

The undefeated WBA lightweight champion (30-0, 28 KO) has been the subject of retirement rumors following a series of events. These rumors surfaced after Davis was arrested on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge related to an incident with his ex-girlfriend on June 15. This led to the postponement of his scheduled August 16 rematch against Lamont Roach. The 30-year-old Davis reportedly told those close to him that he was frustrated with boxing, leading to speculation about a possible retirement. However, his coach has firmly rejected these claims.
