The former Midlands Area champion and English title challenger - nicknamed the Kundalini King - recorded a shutout points success over Paul Cummings at BCB Promotions' The New Guard event.

And though that fight was billed as Osbourne-Edwards' last dance, the 36-year-old may have one more fight in after sending his opponent crashing to the canvas on his way to victory.

Osbourne-Edwards paid tribute to the influence of his uncle, who had helped him get in shape, and also his coach Richie Carter, as the two men will now plot out their next and possibly final move in the sport.

Elsewhere on the card, Wolverhampton's Jimmy Harty was forced to settle for a draw after a tear-up against Ethiopian-born Mohammed Wako, while there were victories for  Warren Leybourne,  Ethan Rutter,  Callum Latimer,  Liam Carey and Doina Costin.
