“It was great fighting in our hometown and getting a knockout was exactly what I wanted to do.” said Maliek Montgomery. “My career is off to a great start and I look forward to getting right back in the ring.”
 
“I wanted to make a statement in my pro debut,” stated Mikhail Montgomery. “Getting a first round knockout lets me know I have some power.  I still have a long way to go, but I’m confident in my quest to make a name for myself.  It’s rare that we have professional boxing shows in Macon, so I’m glad I was able to fight in front of my family and friends.”
 
“My younger brothers and I wanted to come out and show our hometown fans that we are the future of boxing.” Michael Montgomery Jr.  said “We all have that power the fans want to see.  I’m happy that I got another knockout to start my career.”
 
“My sons showed up in our hometown,” said Michael Montgomery Sr.” I’m always pushing my boys to go the extra mile in the gym and the hard work is paying off.  They showed they have the power to stop their opponents.  On Monday we’ll be right back in the gym.”
 
“I’m extremely happy that all three Montgomery brothers were able to stop their opponents,” said Greg Hannely. “Their father, Michael Montgomery Sr., is doing a great job training his boys.  They all have exciting styles that fans want to see.  Jared and I will be looking to get them back in the ring before the end of the year.”
 
“When we signed the Montgomery brothers, I knew they were going to be crowd pleasing fighters,” said co-manager Jared Shaw. “There is nothing boring about all three brothers.  Boxing needs fighters like the Montgomery brothers, action type fighters that will always put on a great show.”

WITNESS SPORTS MANAGEMENT SIGNS MONTGOMERY BROTHERS OUT OF MACON, GEORGIA

MACON, GEORGIA (June 26, 2017) – Boxing veterans, Greg
Hannely, founder of the Prince Ranch Boxing facility, and Jared Shaw have joined forces, as they are happy to announce the birth of Witness Sports Management (WSM), a boxing management company that will guide the careers of some of
the best young fighters in the sport. 

 

The Montgomery Brothers, Maliek, Mikhail, and Michael Jr., out of Macon, Georgia, are WSM’s first signees. 
The highly touted trio, who were all decorated amateur standouts, are trained by their dad, Michael Montgomery Sr. 

 

“I want to make sure it’s known how excited we are to be signing with Jared and Greg,” said Michael Montgomery Sr. “I’m happy
that my boys are going to be represented by some folks that have been involved in boxing for many years.  Greg and Jared have been wonderful to work with.  My boys and I are very grateful and we are ready to take the boxing world by storm.”

 

Greg Hannely, is a well-known figure in the sport as he guided the careers of former world champions, Clarence “Bones” Adams and Steven
Luevano, back in the 90’s and early 2000’s.  His passion for boxing has brought him back to the sport he loves, and he wants nothing more than to build a stable of world champions.

 

“I’m very thrilled to be back in boxing, especially after signing the Montgomery Brothers.” Greg Hannely said, “Their father,
Michael Sr., has been grooming all three boys to fight like professionals.  They all have very exciting styles and I believe they will be well received to everyone who witnesses them fight.  The Prince Ranch Boxing gym in Las Vegas will be available for the
entire Montgomery family.  These are good kids with strong family values.  Their future is bright.”

 

Jared Shaw, son of world renowned boxing promoter Gary Shaw, has been around the sport since he was a young child.  After
spending many years learning from his father, Jared, developed a knack for spotting talent.

 

“If you like pressure fighters with knockout power, then you’ll love the Montgomery Brothers.” stated Jared Shaw. “Maliek, Mikhail,
and Michael Jr., were all great amateurs with over 400 fights combined, but their styles are suited for the pros.  All three of them have heavy hands and the ring intelligence to make adjustments on the fly.  Greg and I are ecstatic to be working with the
entire Montgomery family.  This is a fantastic start to our new management company.”

 

“As co-managers, Greg and I started WSM with the idea of cultivating our fighters,” Shaw continued. “We want to be looked at
as more than just a financial asset.  We will provide our stable with the needed resources that will help them become better fighters.  We will house our guys at “The Prince Ranch” in Las Vegas, getting them the best sparring in boxing.  Our goal is to make
sure they have no distractions that will hinder their development.”

“I believe everything is going to work out great with Jared and Greg.  Fighting in the pros is new to me but I think I’m going
to make an immediate impact.  I got my first knockout in my pro debut earlier this year and I can’t wait to get back in the ring.”
