Star of Contender Season 1 released from Texas Jail

By Michael J. Campbell

Ahmed “Babyface” Kaddour (20-2-1, 9KOs) has served his time and is now a free man.  After a messy divorce from his former wife, Brandy Collins, Kaddour was arrested on charges of burglary in June 2007 and then held in Harris County Jail in downtown Houston until his release on December 6th.

According to a report in The Tribune, a local newspaper serving the area in which the Kaddours once lived, Ahmed entered the residence they had purchased together without her permission and was arrested and jailed.  Kaddour later pled guilty to a charge of trespassing and served approximately 180 days.

Collins had married Kaddour, a Danish national, and sponsored his green card application.  After withdrawing her sponsorship during their divorce, the terms of Kaddour’s plea were that he would be released to Immigration Services and then return to Denmark.  He is now residing with his family there and hopes to resume his boxing career.
