Via TMZ:

TMZ Sports has learned that the 41-year-old ex-NBA star has inked a deal with Celebrity Boxing … and will step into the ring on June 12 at the Showboat Casino in Atlantic City, NJ.

The 6’10” Odom doesn’t currently have an opponent … but CB creator Damon Feldman tells us he’s working on a big-name celeb to duke it out with Lamar. BTW, Odom isn’t the only star on the card … Aaron Carter is also fighting. Like Lamar … he doesn’t yet have an opponent.

Lamar is one big dude, not sure who the hell they’re going to find to fight him.

Nate Robinson has to be off the table.
