Tyson Fury spent the weekend in police custody after failing to attend court to answer a speeding charge.
The undefeated heavyweight contender, who is close to securing a shot at WBA, WBO and IBF world champion Wladimir Klitschko later in the year, was caught doing 90mph in southern Scotland in November and pleaded guilty by letter.
He was ordered to attend court in person and his failure to do so resulted in a warrant being issued for his arrest.
Fury appeared at a hearing this week, having been taken into custody on Friday, and was given a two-month driving ban and a £400 fine.
"I have now experienced what it's like for a criminal… at the expense of the government," the 26-year-old from Manchester was quoted as saying by the BBC, after leaving court.
John Fury, his father and manager, said the boxer's failure to answer the initial summons was his fault.
"There had been a change of address and, as his manager, I am responsible for dealing with matters like that and hadn't picked up his mail," Fury senior told the BBC.
"He needs his driving licence because of the amount of travelling he has to do."
Fury last fought in February when he stopped Christian Hammer in eight rounds at the O2 Arena, London.
