Claressa Shields’ Brother Sentenced To 1 Year In Jail For Weigh-In Attack

Claressa Shields‘ brother has just been sentenced to 1 year behind bars for attacking a man at the boxing superstar’s weigh-in event back in October.

As you’ll recall … the scene was wild at the Shields–Ivana Habazin pre-fight ceremony in Flint, Mi. — with Habazin’s trainer needing to be rushed to the hospital after witnesses say he was sucker-punched.

The guy — 68-year-old James Ali Bashir — was seriously hurt in the attack … with his face and mouth both swollen and bloodied.

Authorities eventually said the attacker was Artis Mack — Shields’ 28-year-old brother — and charged him with felony assault with intent to do great bodily harm.

The charge, if convicted, carried a maximum of 10 YEARS in prison.

But, Mack cut a deal with prosecutors last month to avoid that fate … agreeing to plea to a lesser charge of misdemeanor aggravated assault in the case.

And, according to court docs obtained by TMZ Sports, a judge ordered Mack on Tuesday to serve 365 days behind bars … but gave him 158 days credit for time served.

We reached out to Mack’s attorney for comment … but so far, no word back yet.
