MANNY PACQUIAO PROMOTIONS INTRODUCES CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER AND VICE PRESIDENT TONY COHEN

PhilBoxing.com




From Undefeated Fighter to Renowned Entrepreneur, Tony Cohen Makes His Long-Awaited Return to Combat Sports

LOS ANGELES – Earlier this month, boxing icon and International Hall of Famer Manny Pacquiao announced the U.S. debut of Manny Pacquiao Promotions (MPP), which is set for Saturday, November 29, at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, Calif. With MPP’s paramount expansion stateside, Tony Cohen, J.D., a powerhouse business strategist and entrepreneur, has joined forces alongside Pacquiao as Chief Financial Officer and Vice President. He joins Manny Pacquiao Promotions President Sean Gibbons, with whom Cohen has been friends since 1995, and Lead Matchmaker Brendan Gibbons.

Cohen, the godson of esteemed matchmaker and World Boxing Hall of Famer Bruce Trampler, boasts a passion for boxing that spans over three decades. Cohen was an undefeated fighter and a well-respected promoter in the 1990s. He promoted three-time world champion Tony “The Tiger” Lopez and worked alongside Top Rank, where Cohen acquired invaluable experience in boxing before earning his Juris Doctorate in Law.

“I’m returning to support these world-class fighters, many of whom deserve better,” said Cohen. “With my business and legal background, I’m now in a position to make a difference for them truly. The sport needs real leadership, not just promoters.”

Utilizing his rare combination of legal, business, and combat sports experience, Cohen has become one of the world’s top moguls, being honored three years in a row (2013, 2014, 2015) as Los Angeles’ Top Business Entrepreneur by the Global Entrepreneur Awards. Today, Cohen is the CEO of Bridgegate Films (BridgegateFilms.com), CEO of Beverly Hills Real Estate and Loans (BHREL.com), CEO of Stearns Cohen Media Group, CEO of Cohen Industries (with significant developments in nine countries), and CEO of Beverly Hills Titan (BHTitan.com). Each brand under his leadership has achieved exceptional growth, innovation, and influence across industries.

Tickets for Manny Pacquiao Promotion’s U.S. debut on Saturday, November 29, at Pechanga Resort Casino in Temecula, Calif., are on sale now at Pechanga.com and Ticketmaster.com. VIP and Platinum Experience packages are available now at MannyPacquiaoPromotions.com.

The November 29 card is headlined by a WBO Featherweight title eliminator between two knockout artists, as Oklahoma City’s Elijah Pierce (21-2, 17 KOs) squares off against Venezuela’s Lorenzo Parra (23-1-1, 17 KOs). The event will also feature the professional debut of Emmanuel “Jimuel” Pacquiao Jr. against an opponent to be named shortly. Broadcast details and the full fight card, including an all-star commentary team, will be announced soon.
