MTK Global Signs Amateur Sensation Dennis McCann

MTK Global is delighted to announce the signing of nine-time national champion Dennis McCann as he turns professional.

The Londoner, who will be promoted by Frank Warren, also won a European bronze, three ABA crowns, a Hull Box Cup gold, a Haringey Box Cup gold and had been tipped to make it to the 2020 Olympic Games before opting to join the paid ranks.

After ending his amateur days with a fantastic record of 50-4-KO16, McCann said: “I chose MTK Global as my management team because they’re the best in the business and can guide me where I need to go.

“I’m 100% heading for world titles. I’ve beaten Ukrainian, Hungarian and Irish youth Olympians and I also beat the world No. 3 and the European champion at the Commonwealth Games.

“I had 16 stoppages as an amateur. You’ll struggle to find another super-flyweight or bantamweight who does that and I’m bringing my power into the professional game.

“I want to be 6-0 by the end of this year with some more knockouts to my name so it’s going to be an exciting ride.”

MTK Global President Bob Yalen said: “This is another great signing for MTK Global and we believe we’ve snapped up one of the best prospects in the country.

“We’re confident his fanbase will grow quickly because he’s a very exciting fighter to watch. With ourselves and Frank Warren in his corner, we believe people will see that sooner rather than later.

“Dennis’ talent shone in the amateurs but we believe he’ll be even better as a professional so his forthcoming debut is not to be missed!”

News of McCann’s first assignment as an MTK Global fighter will be forthcoming in due course.
