Abel Osundairo Wins Boxing Match Again as Jussie Smollett Fights Legal Battle

Jussie Smollett‘s fighting to stay outta prison, but one of the brothers who allegedly helped him stage the infamous “attack” is fighting his ass off in the boxing ring — and just rung up another W.

Abel Osundairo competed again Thursday night in the semifinals of the prestigious Chicago Golden Gloves Tournament at Cicero Stadium. He didn’t score a first-round knockout like he did in the quarterfinals, but Abel still secured a unanimous decision — and he’s moving on to the finals, slated to go down next month.

After the match … Abel was met by a horde of reporters. Abel didn’t say much with his mouth but he did let his eyes do a lot of talking. Just ask this reporter who got a bit of a death stare.

Nevertheless … Abel — who wore a white robe with the American flag emblazoned on the back — has proven he’s got potential as a powerful southpaw. His vicious jabs set up a brutal knockdown in the first round. As we first said after his win last weekend … pretty clear that Abel held back a LOT during the “attack.”

As for Jussie’s fight — he’s pled not guilty on the 16-count indictment, and is awaiting trial. 

BTW … the Chicago Golden Gloves Tournament is arguably the most elite amateur tournament in the country. It’s been around since 1923 and some of its past champions include Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis and Sonny Liston.

See, legit.
