"The boxing world offers such high energy and an incredible competitive fire, which inspire me in all of my endeavors," says Majors-DeAndrea. "With the meteoric rise of our undefeated cruiserweight B.J. Flores, I am thrilled to actively lead KnockOut Management into the future of boxing."
KnockOut Management is owned by Meg and her business partner Jerry Giuliano. KnockOut offers full-service management services to professional boxers. Majors-DeAndrea stands out as a boxing manager in a sport with very few women, in the ring or in management.
"I absolutely love the sport of boxing, and I am happy to bring ten years of experience as a CEO along with my unique perspective as a female boxing manager to the ring," says Majors-DeAndrea. "Jackie Kallen is such an inspiration of how female boxing managers can succeed in this business, and I aspire to continue along the trail that she has blazed."
KnockOut Management's star is BJ Flores, an undefeated boxer in the Cruiserweight division with a 24-0 record and 15 knockouts. Following his win over Epifanio Mendoza in the Hook City fight in Biloxi, Mississippi in August, Flores thanked Meg for her excellence in management. Flores said "I want to thank my management team - Jerry and Meg - they make it possible where I don't have to worry about anything else except boxing. That is what makes it possible for me to go out and perform like I did on Saturday, because my team has put me in a situation where my only concern is boxing. That's what I can do when I am at my best and don't have any other distractions."
KnockOut Management is a full-service boxing management firm based in Bordentown, New Jersey.
