Taylor fails to appear in court

An Arkansas judge has ruled against world champion boxer Jermain Taylor after the former Olympian didn’t appear at a court hearing regarding a 2014 shooting involving his cousin.

Taylor is currently serving a six-year suspended sentence after pleading guilty to nine felony charges in 2015, including those related to a shooting that left his cousin, Tyrone DaWayne Hinton, in critical condition, the Arkansas DemocratGazette (http://bit.ly/2s3BGiB ) reported. —
