Five-division world titlist, Floyd Mayweather Jr. was sentenced to 90 days in jail Wednesday in Las Vegas Justice Court in accordance with a plea deal reached to avoid more serious felony charges. Mayweather was initially charged with coercion, grand larceny and robbery stemming from a 2010 domestic violence case involving the mother of his three children, Josie Harris.
Judge Melissa Saragosa also ordered Mayweather to pay a $2,500 fine and perform 100 hours of community service.
Mayweather must report to jail on January 6.
