140-pound champ Terence Crawford sentenced to 90 days in jail over disturbance

Less than a week after his dominant eighth-round TKO win over John Molina Jr. to retain his WBC and WBO belts, super lightweight champion Terence Crawford received a 90-day jail sentence and two years probation for disorderly conduct and damage to property at an Omaha body shop back in April.

Crawford's attorney, Matthew Kahler, plans on appealing the sentence, noting that it's a severe punishment for two misdemeanors.

"This is his first and only adult conviction of any significance, and for crimes of disorderly conduct and property damage it's an abnormally high sentence,'' Kahler said, according to the Associated Press.
