Heavyweight boxing champion Deontay Wilder has been ordered to perform 60 hours of community service after being found guilty of misdemeanor marijuana possession.
The 32‑year‑old American, who last fought in November when he beat Haitian‑Canadian Bermane Stiverne with a first‑round knockout to retain his WBC heavyweight title, was arrested in Alabama last June.
Wilder, who won a bronze medal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, is scheduled to defend his title on March 3 against Cuban Luis Ortiz.
