Wise Owl Boxing, led by boxing manager Mark Habibi, proudly announces the signing of undefeated lightweight sensation Brandon McCarthy to its elite management stable.

McCarthy, a decorated Irish standout, brings one of the most accomplished amateur résumés in recent memory. The 16-time National Champion compiled an astonishing amateur record of 200-15, earning widespread recognition throughout Ireland and internationally for his skill, toughness, and championship pedigree.

Since turning professional, McCarthy has wasted no time making his mark. He currently stands at 5-0 as a pro and has already demonstrated rapid progression in the paid ranks. After debuting on the respected ProBox platform in a four-round bout, McCarthy advanced to six-round contests by just his second professional fight — a clear indication of both his readiness and the confidence his team has in his ability.

Now training out of the world-renowned Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California, under acclaimed trainer Marvin Somodio, McCarthy is sharpening his tools among elite company as he prepares to climb the lightweight ranks.

Wise Owl Boxing, owned by Habibi, manages an elite stable of fighters including highly ranked contender Brandon Adams, who is on the cusp of a world title opportunity, as well as multiple Olympians who have successfully transitioned into the professional ranks.

Habibi believes McCarthy is a natural fit for the Wise Owl family.

“Brandon is the perfect addition to our stable,” said Habibi. “His amateur career is incredibly impressive — 200 wins doesn’t happen by accident. That experience is exactly why he was able to move into six-round fights so quickly against tough competition. He doesn’t shy away from anyone. I love that killer instinct. He’s going to make a lot of noise at 135 pounds.”

McCarthy is scheduled to make his first appearance under Wise Owl Boxing management in April, on a card to be officially announced in the coming weeks.

With his decorated background, relentless style, and championship mindset, Brandon McCarthy now begins the next chapter of his career — one that Wise Owl Boxing fully expects to lead to major opportunities in one of boxing’s deepest and most exciting divisions.

NEW YORK (December 15, 2025)–Split-T Management has signed amateur standout Adrian Salazar to an exclusive management contract.

Salazar of Tyler, Texas was a 2022 USA Boxing National champion and 2023 National Golden Gloves champion. His amateur career spanned over 50 bouts and was a three-time Texas State Golden Gloves champion.

“I chose to sign with Split-T Management and David McWater because they have a proven track record of developing elite fighters and guiding them from the amateur level to the top of the sport,” said Salazar. “David understands boxing at every level—from the amateurs to world championships—and he knows how to move fighters the right way. I wanted a team that believes in my potential, matches my ambition, and can put me in the best position to succeed. Split-T has that reputation, and I’m confident they can take my career to the next level.”

Salazar continued: “My style is a blend of IQ, pressure, and precision. I’m aggressive when I need to be, but I stay smart behind my jab and use angles to control the pace. I like to break opponents down with sharp combinations, stay defensively responsible, and show that I can adapt to any style in front of me. I’m a well-rounded fighter with a champion’s mindset.”

David McWater, founder and CEO of Split-T Management stated: “Adrian has a style and maturity that is much wiser than most 22 year old young men. He has the tools and, more importantly, desire and work ethic necessary to become a world champion. I have no doubt that a championship belt will one day be strapped around his waist.” 

The hard hitting lefty is eager to get his career going towards that goal and will make his professional debut at the start of 2026. 

“Fans can expect an explosive, high-energy fight every time I step into the ring. I’m a powerful southpaw who presses the action, breaks opponents down, and looks for clean, damaging shots. I bring excitement—smart pressure, sharp counters, and the kind of power that can change a fight at any moment. When I’m in there, I’m coming to dominate and give fans a performance they’ll remember.”

The competitive Wheeler then started training in boxing out of spite for an ex-boyfriend,

“I had no idea what to do after college. My boyfriend broke up with me and then the Pandemic hit. His sister used to braid my hair like I would see some of the women fighters, and then I saw an ad for round card girls on Barstool,” said Wheeler.

“They have this series called Rough-and-Rowdy, so I won the round card girl contest while competing in the fights. I fought eight-times in that and I had five amateur fights.”

“I have an athletic background and I am a strength and conditioning coach for professional athletes.

Wheeler, who is promoted by Jeter Promotions, signed a managerial contract with the top female boxing manager Brian Cohen of Split-T Management.

“Something about Brian is genuine and authentic and it is important that he has managed a lot of female fighters and he gave me the confidence to sign with Jeter Promotions.”

“Signing with Jeter is a great fit as I will be fighting close to home and I know he will help me with securing the big opportunities.”

Wheeler turned pro November 2, 2024 with a second round stoppage over Sarah Cunningham,. Wheeler followed that up with consecutive first round stoppages over Natali Fagan (1-0) and her most recent outing when she took out Shamiah Jones on September 20th in Fort Washington, Maryland.

LOS ANGELES (Sept. 26, 2025) – Red Owl Boxing is set to deliver another night of high-stakes action and defining moments when it presents Boxfest XVI at the Commerce Casino in Los Angeles on Friday, October 10, headlined by an undefeated rising contender in a pivotal crossroads clash. The action-packed card will stream live worldwide on DAZN.

“Red Owl Boxing is proud to bring another stacked event to our fans, this time from Los Angeles,” said Gabriel Fanous, President of Red Owl Boxing. “From undefeated prospects seeking their crowning moment, to international veterans hoping to re-stake their claim to the top of boxing’s food chain, to amateur standouts ready to make their debut in the professional ranks, October 10 promises to be a night of incredible action from start to finish.”

“We’re thrilled to be teaming up with Red Owl Boxing to bring Boxfest XVI to Commerce Casino where Bash Boxing has promoted some of Southern California’s largest boxing and MMA events over the past five years,” said Steve Bash, co-promoter and founder of Bash Boxing. “This card represents everything fans want to see – competitive 50/50 fights, new stars making their mark, and seasoned veterans proving they still belong on the big stage. Los Angeles fight fans won’t want to miss the unique, career-defining brand of a Red Owl Boxing show.”

In the main event “Crowning” portion of Boxfest XVI, Deonte “Lay Em Down” Brown (16-0, 11 KOs) of Morgan City, Louisiana, puts his unblemished record on the line in a ten-round, WBA Continental Americas Super Featherweight title fight against Venezuelan power puncher Grimardi Machuca (17-2, 14 KOs). Brown, trained by Chelo Betancourt in New York and known for his explosive knockouts, looks to extend his perfect record against Machuca, a dangerous veteran who has dropped world-level opponents and is eager to spoil Brown’s momentum.

In the co-main event “Redemption” bout of the evening, Saul “The Beast” Sanchez (21-4, 12 KOs) of Encino, Calif., looks to even the score against Puerto Rico’s Edwin Rodriguez (12-9-2, 5 KOs, who defeated Sanchez in 2019. Known for his aggressive style and fan-friendly fights, Sanchez has built a reputation as one of Southern California’s most exciting bantamweights and is eager to make a statement in his comeback after nearly a year out of the ring. Standing in his way is Rodriguez, a 13-year veteran who has faced a deep roster of tough opposition throughout his career. Rodriguez enters the bout hungry to pull off an upset and derail Sanchez’s path back toward title contention in their scheduled eight-round bantamweight clash.

Another highlight of the card will be the professional debut of 2020 U.S. Olympian Rashida Ellis, who steps into the ring as the highlighted “Debut” of Boxfest XVI after an impressive run in the Team Combat League, where she won every round she fought. Ellis, from Lynn, Massachusetts, will face her toughest test yet right out of the gate when she takes on seasoned Mexican veteran Maria “Polverita” Salinas (27-12-6, 7 KOs).A four-time world title challenger, Salinas has shared the ring with some of the sport’s elite and brings a wealth of experience into the six-round women’s featherweight contest.

Tickets for the event are on sale now at RedOwlBoxing.com.

Las Vegas, NV (September 16, 2025) — The Eighth Annual Box Fan Expo once again delivered the ultimate fan experience this past Saturday, September 13, at the Las Vegas Convention Center — drawing in nearly 4,000 passionate boxing fans from across the country to the event.?

Coinciding with the highly anticipated Canelo Alvarez vs. Terence Crawford showdown later that evening, the Expo lived up to its billing as “The Ultimate Boxing Fan Experience.” Fans were treated to exclusive meet-and-greets, autograph signings, and photo ops with past and present champions — from Roy Jones Jr., Teofimo Lopez, Tommy Hearns, Marco Antonio Barrera, Shane Mosley, James Toney, Riddick Bowe, Shawn Porter, Juan Francisco Estrada, and rising star Tito Mercado. Boxing promoters Top Rank Boxing, TakeOver Sports, and Marvnation Promotions joined the virtual boxing game Thrill of the Fight 2, along with streaming boxing network Ringside Network, FightBook, for their own activations, joining promotions from other boxing, clothing, and fitness brands.

Spotlight on the Future of the Sport

One of the most inspiring highlights of this year’s Expo was the Box Fan Expo Invitational 2025 — a sanctioned USA Amateur Boxing tournament that showcased 50 amateur bouts, highlighting the future of the sport. Sponsored by Teofimo Lopez and his Takeover Sports, and the Thrill of the Fight 2, the Invitational featured nearly 200 registered amateur boxers, youth to young adults, from across the country, including standout talent from boxing hubs like Las Vegas, California, Texas, and Arizona.

The tournament was produced to support U.S. amateur boxing in Las Vegas, with the guidance of Barry’s Boxing Center, a Las Vegas non-profit committed to shaping youth through discipline, community, and the sport of boxing. Local gyms such as Mayweather Boxing Club, Richard Steele’s Boxing Gym, Vargas Boxing, Las Vegas Fight Club, Salas Boxing Academy, Knuckleheads Boxing Gym, Pound For Pound, Center Ring Boxing, DLX Boxing, Mob Boxing, among others, proudly showed up with young fighters eager to shine.

Why It Matters

Box Fan Expo continues to be more than just an event — it’s a cultural touchpoint for boxing that bridges generations, unites communities, and lifts the next wave of champions. Whether fans came to meet their heroes or cheer on tomorrow’s contenders, the energy in the room was undeniable.
