Split-T Management Signs Amateur Standout Adrian Salazar
PhilBoxing.com Tue, 16 Dec 2025

NEW YORK (December 15, 2025)--Split-T Management has signed amateur standout Adrian Salazar to an exclusive management contract.
Salazar of Tyler, Texas was a 2022 USA Boxing National champion and 2023 National Golden Gloves champion. His amateur career spanned over 50 bouts and was a three-time Texas State Golden Gloves champion.
“I chose to sign with Split-T Management and David McWater because they have a proven track record of developing elite fighters and guiding them from the amateur level to the top of the sport," said Salazar. "David understands boxing at every level—from the amateurs to world championships—and he knows how to move fighters the right way. I wanted a team that believes in my potential, matches my ambition, and can put me in the best position to succeed. Split-T has that reputation, and I’m confident they can take my career to the next level.”
Salazar continued: “My style is a blend of IQ, pressure, and precision. I’m aggressive when I need to be, but I stay smart behind my jab and use angles to control the pace. I like to break opponents down with sharp combinations, stay defensively responsible, and show that I can adapt to any style in front of me. I’m a well-rounded fighter with a champion’s mindset.”
David McWater, founder and CEO of Split-T Management stated: “Adrian has a style and maturity that is much wiser than most 22 year old young men. He has the tools and, more importantly, desire and work ethic necessary to become a world champion. I have no doubt that a championship belt will one day be strapped around his waist.”
The hard hitting lefty is eager to get his career going towards that goal and will make his professional debut at the start of 2026.
“Fans can expect an explosive, high-energy fight every time I step into the ring. I’m a powerful southpaw who presses the action, breaks opponents down, and looks for clean, damaging shots. I bring excitement—smart pressure, sharp counters, and the kind of power that can change a fight at any moment. When I’m in there, I’m coming to dominate and give fans a performance they’ll remember.”
