- Former boxing prodigy was once tabbed as future superstar
Félix Verdejo, the boxing prodigy once put forth as the sport’s next great Puerto Rican star, received two life sentences on Friday after he was found guilty in the grisly killing of his 27-year-old pregnant lover.
A federal judge sentenced Verdejo following emotional speeches by the family of Keishla Rodríguez, who was killed in April 2021.
