Meek Mill Allegedly Got Into Altercation During Gervonta Davis Fight

Meek Mill is certainly one of the most established rappers in the modern hip-hop world. In addition to his great songs, Mill is also a loving and compassionate person, especially towards his family and also his friends. However, that does not mean that Meek Mill is a timid person who does not get into fights. In fact, Mill allegedly got into an altercation during the most recent Gervonta Davis fight.

Last night, Gervonta Davis squared off against Hector Luis Garcia in their WBA World Lightweight Championship match. That being said, during the match, Meek Mill had a fight of his own.

Reports suggested that Meek Mill got into an alleged altercation at ringside during the Gervonta Davis vs. Hector Luis Garcia fight at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C. According to sports journalist Andreas Hale, the rapper was about to fight one of the Gary Russell boys. It was said that Gary Russell, Jr.— and Wallo267, from Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, were trying to calm down the situation.

So…Tank and Hector Garcia stopped boxing in the middle of their fight because Meek Mill was about to fight one of the Gary Russell boys (actual boxers) in the crowd and Wallo was trying to keep the peace?

You can’t make this shit up.

The rapper’s fight momentarily stopped the real boxing match between Davis and Garcia. Eventually, Meek was escorted out of the venue before the fight could resume again. Stephen Espinoza, president of Showtime Sports, who witnessed the altercation, told Fight Hub TV that Meek and Gary Russell Jr. exchanged words and had a brief shoving contest, but fists were not exchanged. Meek Mill also took to Twitter and addressed the situation in an amusing way.

“Congratulations tankkk!!! I almost fought a boxer telling him this fight not going 12 rounds I missed the big bomb!!!!

I would never let no petty shit escalate to let somebody movie run …. I just walked away .. I came to support tank and boots!!!!!! Good wins [five sparkle],” he continued. “I was nice to everybody at that fight if you was there you saw! The blogs gone put up the aggressive part after I respond to something aggressive … everybody in that section seen my level of respect towards others… i just gotta step my response game up!

I have no business going back and forth that hard with a random person and we just talking about sports…so my apologies for wasting time for nothing! I had a few shots I know how to dodge those! Congrats Tank and boots!!!

Davis scored a TKO win by hitting Garcia on the head in the 8th to remain unbeaten at 28-0, 26 KOs. Regardless, Meek Mill will certainly remember this incident and that is all that matters.
