Calvin Ford firmly asserted his innocence during the assault case against him and was eagerly awaiting his day in court. However, the individual accusing him did not appear for the proceedings. The case, involving two charges of assault with a deadly weapon, was dismissed by a Clark County court in Las Vegas. Ford and his legal team attended the court session, and the judge ordered the formal dismissal of the case.

The dismissal was initially reported by *The Baltimore Banner*, detailing allegations that Ford had threatened two people with a handgun in Las Vegas in February 2023. Following an arrest warrant issued by local authorities in October, Ford was taken into custody in Baltimore last December on a Fugitive of Justice charge. After being extradited to Nevada, where he faced assault charges, Ford vehemently refuted the claims, maintaining his innocence.

Famed for his partnership with Gervonta ‘Tank’ Davis, Ford has dedicated his life to empowering the Baltimore community and guiding young individuals towards boxing instead of the streets. He has been an inspiration for characters in popular culture, with his collaboration with Davis, a multi-weight division champion, being a significant achievement. Despite the legal obstacles, Ford and Davis continue to excel in the boxing arena, with their recent triumph in June marking a remarkable milestone in their careers.
