Riddick Bowe replacement named

With former heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe removed from his fight with Lamar Odom for precautionary reasons, the former NBA star will now face Ojani Noa. Who? Noa’s claim to fame is he was once married to J Lo. Of course, Odom was once married to Khloe Kardashian, so there’s some sliver of a storyline here.

The October 2 PPV card takes place at the James L. Knight Center in Miami, Florida. The co-feature clash between “Magic Man” Paulie Malignaggi and TikToker Corey B is still a go.

    • “Noa’s claim to fame is he was once married to J Lo.”

      Would have to agree with you on this on Chris. They must have really been desperate to salvage this card. I mean, that’s the best celeb-type they could come up with?? Props to that guy though for getting the J Lo experience….

      • “Noa’s claim to fame is he was once married to J Lo. Of course, Odom was once married to Khloe Kardashian, so there’s some kind of a storyline there”

        I cannot think of any other sentence that would seem less related to boxing.

  • This is the Age of Absurdity, where hot is cold and up is down. Bowe has no more business in the ring than Mitch McConnell. Odom looks as out-of-place in the boxing ring as a hippo walking a tightrope.

  • Ojani Noa, not the guy with a good left hook, but just the guy who was referred to as ‘To the left, to the left’
