Greg Cohen Promotions Inks Turkish Super Middleweight Cem Kilic PhilBoxing.com Sat, 25 Feb 2017 Greg Cohen Promotions proudly announces the signing of super middleweight prospect Cem "Champ" Kilic. 22-year-old Kilic (7-0, 4 KOs) was born in Frankfurt, Germany, to Turkish parents. Kilic was a decorated amateur boxer on the international level, where he won the European Silver Medal for Turkey in 2012. Upon meeting his manager Shane Shapiro, he moved to America and turned professional in 2014. He currently lives in Sherman Oaks, California. Kilic has gained invaluable experience serving as sparring partner for several high-profile fighters including multiple world champions Miguel Cotto and Shane Mosley, as well as well-known names like Montreal's Jean Pascal, and South Africa's Chris van Heerden. "I am excited to sign with Greg Cohen Promotions," said Kilic. "Greg has a strong history of building his fighters correctly and giving them the chance to fight for world titles. I left my family behind to pursue my dream of becoming a world champion and to make the people of America, Turkey and Germany proud. With my manager, Shane Shapiro, in my corner and GCP guiding me, I know there is No Limit to my success!" "I am excited to bring Cem over to GCP," said Shane Shapiro. "Cem is an extremely talented young fighter. His style is fan-friendly, he is always in a good fight and he is beyond dedicated to his craft. I'm very comfortable knowing that GCP will help move Cem along the right way that will ultimately lead him to a world title shot." Promoter Greg Cohen says he should have no problem moving Kilic up the ladder quickly. "He's such a crowd-pleasing fighter, people will want to see him," said Cohen. "Cem has a natural ability to generate excitement in his fights, which will put him in a good position with the television networks. I'm excited to be working with him and Shane Shapiro."  |
