LAKE CHARLES, Louisiana (January 7, 2020) – Darius Fulghum leaves the 2020 U.S. Olympic Team Trials for Boxing with a black eye and a blue belt. He became only the second No. 8 seed to emerge as trials champion.
Fulghum, 23, graduated in May with a nursing degree from Prairie View A&M, and he noted that the swelling had gone down quite a bit since he got the shiner last Wednesday in his second fight.
