Two weeks before his scheduled fight with Jake Paul, lightweight world champion Gervonta Davis is facing a new lawsuit following fresh allegations of attacking an ex-girlfriend.
Former girlfriend Courtney Rossel’s ex-girlfriend filed a civil lawsuit against the 30-year-old on Thursday in Miami-Dade County, Florida, charging the boxer with battery, aggravated battery, false imprisonment, kidnapping, and intentional emotional distress.
Rossel is asking for a jury trial and “of over $50, 000” (£38, 145).
On November 14 in Miami, YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul will take on American Davis in an exhibition match.
According to the new complaint, Davis had previously threatened to kill Rossel when she attacked her job on October 27.
Rossel claims that he “physically assaulted and choked” her in “at least” four previous ways.
Rossel is alleged to be seeking therapeutic treatment because of her post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Two months prior, another ex-girlfriend dropped a domestic violence case against Davis.
In February 2020 and December 2022, he was also detained on domestic violence battery charges.
In connection with a criminal hit-and-run case that took place in his Baltimore hometown in November 2020, Davis violated the terms of his 90-day house arrest sentence and was sentenced to 44 days in prison in 2023.

Billy Bob Thornton and Demi Moore have put on a cosy display in an awkward recreation of historic Angelina Jolie pictures. The pair of actors got very close as they appeared on the red carpet together this week.
On Thursday, the two of them made an appearance at the Landman premiere in Los Angeles. From 2000 to 2003, Billie and Angelina Jolie were married for three years.
The former couple was well-known for showing affection at gatherings together. The pair frequently posed for selfies, with Billy always resting his tender arm around Angelina’s torso.

Since Billy and Connie Angland’s marriage didn’t work out, they are now married. On the red carpet, Billy had Demi as his arms wrapped around her.
They both attended the event to watch the Paramount+ show, and they are co-starring in Landman. Billy has already tied the knot six times throughout her marriage.
Additionally, he has three female children. The actor and Melissa Lee Gatlin had a daughter Amanda when they first got married in 1978.
His marriage to actress Toni Lawrence ended in 1986, but they broke up the following year and divorced in 1988. He married actress Cynda Williams from 1990 to 1992. Then, in 1993, Billy and Playboy model Pietra Dawn Cherniak were married. In 1997, the marriage ended.
The actress dated Laura Dern from 1997 until 1999 before getting married to Angelina in 2000. They divorced the following year and split in June 2002. In 2003, Billy continued to have a relationship with his current wife. While they were an item, he has previously claimed that he “never felt good enough for Angelina.”
Due to their contentious relationship, Angelina and Billy frequently made headlines during their relationship. They both once wore blood from each other around their necks at one point. Billy told The Hollywood Reporter in October 2014, “It was a crazy time. It’s never a good thing to me.
We were a lot of friends because she started making Tomb Raider and I started Monster’s Ball, he added. She thought it would be romantic and interesting if we slit these lockets with a small razor blade, smeared some blood on them, and wore them as baby hair on one for your son or daughter.

We were dangling blood around our necks from that, according to the statement. And we were a dungeon dweller and vampires.
Over the years, South African cricket has struggled to get past the line.
Both their international teams, both men’s and women’s, have consistently come oh-so-close to winning a significant trophy, only to fall at the final (or semi-final) hurdle.
The narrative has remained the same from 1999’s Edgbaston to Cape Town and then Dubai in 2023 and 2024. That is until Lord’s 2025, when the men’s team won the World Test Championship and caused intense emotions in South Africans who love cricket.
In Navi Mumbai on Sunday, the women’s side will face hosts India in the world cup final. With one albatross removed, the women’s side will now face them.
Nadine de Klerk, or “de Clutch,” as she’s come to be known this tournament, moves forward.
The Pretoria-born all-rounder scored stunning sixes in thrilling group-stage matches against India and Bangladesh to seal the victory. Not bad either, with a 17-ball 41 against Pakistan.
De Klerk refers to the tight matches as “if we went back a few years, we would probably end up on the losing side.”

De Klerk embodies a toughness for this South African team, which has helped them win two T20 World Cup championships in recent years.
De Klerk bowled a superb four-over performance of 1-17 in their 2023 victory over England. They shocked Australia in the UAE last year.
We’ve definitely changed to “we’re just going to rock up at a World Cup and hope we give one or two teams a good run for their money,” he said. We actually feel like we’re actually competing, she tells BBC Sport.
South Africa lost in the subsequent final twice, but de Klerk is aware that they are getting closer. “Last year, losing to New Zealand in that World Cup final left many people very emotional,” de Klerk said. Therefore, I believe winning would only have a positive impact on South African women’s cricket.
South Africa started their tournament winning run with a 69-run run against England in their opening match of the tournament, before winning for the first time in their history by five games and making it to the final four.
By 125 runs, they had already demolished England there. They are performing well.
De Klerk continues, “It’s part of my DNA to be very feisty and quite aggressive and hate losing,” in a statement about her group-stage batting exploits. Never do I ever feel like a game is over on a cricket field.

De Klerk, a highly successful javelin thrower in her youth, has discovered how to always display this resilience.
She said, “You just never give up, it does not matter how it looks,” as my dad always said.
Things won’t always go your way in life, I just believe that’s true of life in general. Even if you can sulk about it, your situation won’t really change.
“I sometimes think cricket can be won mentally,” I think. It’s possible to possess all the skills in the world, but it’s kind of pointless if you don’t believe or support it.
We possess the strength, mentality, grit, fight, and ability to defeat any opponent on any given day.

Strictly Come Dancing’s Dianne Buswell has confessed “I’m so upset” as she updated fans on her pregnancy journey.
The 36 year old Aussie dancer is expecting her first child with former Strictly partner and YouTuber Joe Sugg, with the couple preparing to welcome a baby boy next year.
This impending arrival has already brought about significant changes, with Dianne confessing to last year’s Glitter Ball winner Chris McCausland that she’s struggling to fit into her clothes.
She lamented: “Honestly Chris, I can’t fit into any of my jeans,” during their podcast Winning Isn’t Everything. I’m so angry. I even went to the stores yesterday because I needed to feel happy and purchase some clothes that fit. ‘
“And I just didn’t even have it in me and I was like: ‘None of this stuff is doing it for me,'” reports Wales Online.
I tried on some bits, and I was gutted. I thought I should go for a size up. In the end, I never purchased anything. When I returned, Joe asked, “What did you buy?” I said, “I bought nothing,” I was like. ‘”
Dianne and Joe, 34, first crossed paths when they were paired together on the BBC reality show in 2018, finishing as runners up to Stacey Dooley and Kevin Clifton.
The overjoyed pair announced their pregnancy news via an Instagram post back in September, writing: “Our little baby boy [heart emoji] we cannot wait to meet you.”
As she revealed that the little one “kicks a lot,” Dianne admitted that she is “definitely getting bigger.”
He will eventually play football, she said. Or, for the record, one of the two, an Irish dancer? He kicks a lot, loves life, and is only getting bigger.
He just seems to be coming out massive, I believe. Why, I have no idea. “
Then, comedian Chris came in and said, “And Joe is going to be like, “Who do we know that’s massive. ‘”
What’s happening here, Dianne responded. I don’t know why, but I just feel this way. He just seems to be coming out like a big heffer, in my opinion. “
The professional dancer departed Strictly earlier this month after her celebrity partner, Neighbours star Stefan Dennis, suffered a torn calf muscle during their routine the preceding Saturday.
Despite having more free time to spend and expecting a baby, Dianne insists she won’t be relaxing.
Chris inquired as to whether she is “a little pleased” that her dancing has finished. “No! “, she replied. Actually, I’m not. I’ve said before that I shouldn’t be chilling out because I’m not. And I’m going to turn this over to my parents, right.

I don’t have the ability to relax. I’ve already gone to the gym this morning, and I’ve already done it because I have to.
Because my parents were such active people, they would frequently clean up or do this or that when I was younger.

Tom McKibbin’s impressive effort to advance to the next Masters and Open Championship was matched up with a second-round 65 to take the Hong Kong Open by two shots at halfway.
The Northern Irishman won the Asian Tour tournament at Fanling with a course record of 60.
His five-under-par bogey-free round kept him two shots clear of American Peter Uihlein and Thailand duo Kiradech Aphibarnrat and Jazz Janewattananond, who were both struggling on Friday.
McKibbin, who signed with LIV Golf earlier this year, put together his second round with two birdies in his first three holes.
At the halfway point, the 22-year-old is 15 under after three more birdies in a row from the 12th.
The top-placed non-exempt player who makes the cut will be entered for the 154th Open at Royal Birkdale in July, while the winner of the competition will advance to the 2026 Masters.
McKibbin did not make the cut at the Royal Portrush Open in July because he has never played at Augusta National.
