Lamar Odom defeats Ojani Noa in celebrity boxing match (Video)

Former NBA star Lamar Odom was back in the squared circle this evening for a celebrity boxing match with actor / producer Ojani Noa.

Odom was initially slated to face 54-year-old Riddick Bowe at tonight’s event, but the boxing legend was ultimately forced out of the contest. Stepping in for Bowe was Jennifer Lopez’s ex-husband Ojani Noa.

Tonight’s celebrity boxing match took place at the James L Knight Center in Miami, Florida.

Lamar Odom had most previously competed this past June, where he earned a second round knockout victory over singer Aaron Carter.

The former NBA player once again had a massive height and reach advantage this evening, as he towered over the Hollywood actor in Noa.

Odom came in at 6’10” with a 82″ reach, while Noa was recorded at 6’1″ with a 74″ reach.

Lamar Odom was able to pepper Ojani Noa with his jab throughout the course of tonight’s fight.
