BOXING

MAYWEATHER HEADS TO JAIL: Floyd Mayweather Jr. turned himself in at a Las Vegas courtroom to begin serving a three-month jail sentence for attacking his ex-girlfriend in September 2010 while two of their children watched.

Mayweather pleaded guilty in December to reduced domestic battery charges in a hair-pulling, arm-twisting attack on the mother of three of his children. The plea deal avoided trial on felony charges that could have gotten Mayweather up to 34 years in prison if he was convicted.

Justice of the Peace Melissa Saragosa had allowed Mayweather to remain free long enough to headline a May 5 fight.
