LEWIS RITSON SIGNS PROMOTIONAL DEAL WITH PROBELLUM

Los Angeles, CA – October 12, 2021 - Probellum is proud to announce a promotional deal with former British and WBA Intercontinental champion Lewis Ritson.

Newcastle superstar Ritson (21-2, 12 knockouts) is known for his all-action, relentless style, having been involved in some of the most exciting fights in the UK in recent years, such as his October 2019 win over Robbie Davies Jnr.

His vicious power has also been on display during his career, as seen in his quick-fire stoppage victories over Paul Hyland Jnr, Scott Cardle and Joe Murray, with those three fights lasting less than four rounds combined.

Ritson's first bout since signing with Probellum will come on Saturday, when he competes against Hank Lundy on the BOXXER event at the Newcastle Arena - live on Sky Sports Boxing.

Probellum will guide the career of Ritson moving forward, as their expert team look to use their vast knowledge to help navigate the 28-year-old back towards world title contention.

It is the latest major statement of intent from Probellum, following on from their signings of Regis Prograis, Nonito Donaire, Badou Jack, Eimantas Stanionis, Arthur Biyarslanov, Taras Shelestyuk, Ricky Burns, Eduardo Hernandez and Brandon Moore.

"I'm thrilled to be a part of the Probellum team," said Ritson. "Over the last few weeks they have made some huge signings and I'm happy we’ve got the deal over the line and I've signed with them."

"It's great to welcome someone of Lewis' high standard to the team," said Richard Schaefer, President of Probellum. "He's always in entertaining fights and is one of the most popular fighters in the entire UK.

"He's been on the cusp of a world title shot before, and Probellum will now be on hand to steer him back towards that level as we help him achieve his dream of one day becoming world champion."

USA AMATEUR HEAVYWEIGHT SENSATION DARIUS FULGHUM SIGNS WITH PROBELLUM

Los Angeles, CA – October 12, 2021 - Probellum is thrilled to announce the signing of highly-rated USA amateur heavyweight Darius Fulghum as he prepares to turn professional.

Probellum is thrilled to announce the signing of highly-rated USA amateur heavyweight Darius Fulghum as he prepares to turn professional.

Fulghum was an extremely successful amateur, with the Houston fighter becoming the number-one ranked USA heavyweight, whilst also winning the National Golden Gloves tournament in 2018.

He has had plenty of success outside the ring too, having been an accomplished amateur wrestler in high school, and holding a degree in Nursing after graduating from Prairie View A&M University.

The 25-year-old will now enter the paid ranks and see his career guided by Probellum, alongside Adam Morallee of S-JAM Boxing, who will serve as manager.

Fulghum is Probellum's latest big signing, joining the likes of Regis Prograis, Nonito Donaire, Badou Jack, Eimantas Stanionis, Arthur Biyarslanov, Taras Shelestyuk, Ricky Burns, Lewis Ritson, Eduardo Hernandez and Brandon Moore.

Probellum have also secured co-promotional agreements with some of the biggest promoters around the world, including Wasserman Boxing, Universum in Germany, Maravillabox Promotions in Spain, LNK Boxing in Latvia, Glozier Boxing in New Zealand, Shuan Boxing Promotions in the Dominican Republic, Team Ellis Boxing in Australia, Armin Tan Promotions in Indonesia, and Box Office Sports in Ghana.

“I was denied an opportunity to compete in the Olympics due to COVID. With that being taken from me it lit a fire under me to show that I’m the best in the world in my professional career," said Fulghum.

"Watch my career unfold now that I have signed a promotional deal with Probellum. I’m destined for greatness."

“Darius is a phenomenal talent and we have been working, together with his coach and family, to find the right promoter to give his skills the best and biggest platform possible," said Adam Morallee of S-JAM Boxing.

"In Probellum we have found a promoter with exciting plans to invest in Darius so that boxing fans in the US and all over the world will be able to see why we believe he is destined for greatness."

"We're proud to be working with S-JAM Boxing to guide the career of Darius Fulghum," said Richard Schaefer, President of Probellum. "He looked certain to compete at the Olympics before the pandemic hit, but it has made him more determined than ever to succeed as a professional.

"He has all of the right attributes that you want in a fighter, so I'm confident that he can go on to accomplish incredible things in the paid ranks."

News on when Fulghum will make his highly-anticipated professional debut will be revealed in the near future.
