The Chicago Tribune is reporting that Osundairo, who allegedly took $3,500 from Smollett to help stage the Jan. 29 incident, took home the “senior novice division” title Friday night following a technical knockout in the first round.
The division is for less-experienced boxers between 21 and 35 who weigh 178 pounds or less.
