Interview with Frank Warren of Queensberry Promotions NYC-2018

Frank Warren is an English boxing manager and promoter. Warren soon became a leading figure in British boxing, and since has managed some of Britain’s best boxers of the last twenty five years, including ‘Prince’ Naseem Hamed, Nigel Benn, Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton, Dereck Chisora, Nicky Piper and Amir Khan.

Warren guided Hamed to become Britain’s youngest ever world champion when he beat Steve Robinson to win the WBO Featherweight title at the Cardiff Arms Park, Wales, in 1995; he oversaw the ascent of Ricky Hatton to the IBF Light Welterweight Championship of the World after beating Kostya Tszyu in 2005; and has been with former IBF and WBO/WBC/WBA/Ring Magazine Super Middleweight Champion Joe Calzaghe throughout the majority of his 46 fight unbeaten career.

Warren signed the 2004 Olympic Lightweight silver medallist Amir Khan and guided him to be a world champion in 2009, but the two split in 2010. He continued this post-Olympic record by signing others after the 2008 Olympics.

In December 2007, Warren was elected to the International Boxing Hall of Fame and was inducted in June 2008.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Frank Warren at the NY Press Conference for WBC Heavyweight  World Championship DEONTAY WILDER VS. TYSON FURY, fight which Frank is the Promoter of Tyson Fury.

Interview with Eddie Hearn Promoter for Matchroom Boxing @ Jacobs VS Arias NY Pr Conf-2017

Matchroom Sport was founded by his father, Barry Hearn. As Group Managing Director, Eddie Hearn focuses on fulfilling the company’s exclusive televised boxing deal until 2021 with Sky Sports, to broadcast up to 20 live shows a year. Eddie Hearn promotes Matchroom Sports world boxing champions, including Anthony Joshua, Ryan Burnett, James DeGale, and Khalid Yafai.

Hearn  announced that he has signed his first American fighter to his newly created Matchroom Boxing USA: former middleweight titlist Daniel Jacobs. As part of the deal, Jacobs has signed a multi-fight contract with HBO in a major move.

Jacobs (32-2, 29 KOs), 30, of Brooklyn, New York, will fight under Hearn’s banner for the first fight of the new deal when he headlines HBO’s “World Championship Boxing” in November11th 2017 With Louis Arias at Nassau Coliseum New York.

After overcoming a rare form of bone cancer that nearly killed him, Jacobs won a secondary middleweight world title in 2014. Jacobs defended the 160-pound belt four times, including a huge first-round knockout victory against former titlist Peter Quillin in December 2015, before the mandatory bout with Golovkin was put together.

Inspiring and electric in the ring, Daniel Jacobs is a true ambassador for boxing,” HBO Sports executive vice president Peter Nelson said.
