NEW YORK (April 21, 2025)--One of the most promising young female fighters in the country, Sar’ai Brown-El, has officially signed a management agreement with elite boxing firm Split-T Management. The highly touted amateur standout is now set to begin her professional journey under the guidance of Split-T’s founder and manager Dave McWater and seasoned boxing manager Brian Cohen.

Brown-El, 19,will compete at light flyweight and flyweight.

Sar’ai Brown-El has compiled an impressive amateur résumé that includes:

• 19-time National Champion
• Junior Olympic Gold Medalist

Brown-El's amateur success and poise beyond her years have caught the attention of boxing insiders nationwide, and her move to the professional ranks has been highly anticipated.

""I am really excited. Split-T is a great Management company. I can not wait to start working with them, Dave has known about me since I was 13 years old. It's really good to see that they are pushing females to get world title fights, and I am honored to be part of the team," said Brown

Split-T Management CEO Dave McWater expressed his excitement about the signing:

“Sar’ai Brown-El is the total package — skill, intelligence, and the kind of drive you don’t see everyday. Women’s boxing is experiencing an incredible boom, and I have no doubt Sar’ai is going to be a major force in the sport. We’re honored to have her as part of the Split-T family.”

Veteran manager and boxing figure Brian Cohen, known for guiding the careers of many world-class female fighters, also shared his enthusiasm:

“Sar’ai isn’t just a standout amateur, she’s a future world champion. Her natural ability and boxing IQ are elite, and with the right guidance, her potential is limitless. I’m proud to be part of her journey and excited for what’s ahead.”
