gavpowell Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 (edited) The BBC reports that Crawford got into an argument with the owner of a car paintshop over what he felt was poor-quality work on his 1984 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, whatever that is. He has been sentenced to 90 days, plus 120 hours community service and two years of probation. US world boxing champion Terence 'Bud' Crawford jailed - BBC News The judge said Crawford "continued to act as if you are above the law, and you are not." However, what really caught my eye was the following statement: Crawford managed to forcefully remove his car which was placed on a hydraulic lift. Shop owner Michael Nelson said the boxer was able to push a 600lb (272kg) engine left underneath the lift so that the vehicle could be lowered to the floor. The boxer then tied a rope to the car and towed it awayI think Crawford may be the Incredible Hulk! Edited December 16, 2016 by gavpowell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittbox Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Re: Terence Crawford Jailed I've always thought about him as a down to earth guy. I hope he won't waste his career because of such BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_budweiser Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Re: Terence Crawford Jailed Nice to see his lawyers not getting him out of what he done. Hopefully it's a wake up call and he gets his act together and focuses on his boxing career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WelshDevilRob Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Re: Terence Crawford Jailed Plenty of people kick-off when given a raw deal. Some can do it in a non aggressive way. Hope he learns to control that temper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonRingRules Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Re: Terence Crawford Jailed --- Not wishing to stereotype the Terence upbringing, but he barely escaped death in a craps game when he was grazed in the noggin by gunfire. That he's still here and p4p ranked is a happy accident, but when push comes to shove, it would appear his ghetto origins take over. The sentence is a good wake up call for reflection. Likely he gets out early with nary a hiccup to his boxing career, but can he survive his upbringing? We don't see him as stupid as boner, but it's debateable who may pass first.
