SALITA PROMOTIONS SIGNS RISING HEAVYWEIGHT CONTENDER BRANDON MOORE
DETROIT (Jan. 8, 2025)– Salita Promotions has announced the signing of surging heavyweight contender Brandon Moore (16-1, 10 KOs).
The 2019 Florida Golden Gloves Champion and Bronze medalist at the 2019 Olympic Games trials, Moore joins Salita Promotions’ star-studded stable of heavyweight fighters. Moore will make his promotional debut as he takes on Indianapolis’ Skylar Lacy (8-0-2, 6 KOs) on Sunday, February 2, in Flint, Mich., for the USBA Vacant Heavyweight Title during the highly anticipated “SUPER BRAWL SUNDAY”, airing live on global streaming service DAZN.
Headlining the monumental card will be hometown superstar Claressa Shields colliding against the towering Danielle Perkins for the undisputed heavyweight title. Tickets for the event at Dort Financial Center are on sale now and can be purchased online or in-person at the Dort Financial Center Box Office.
Standing at 6-foot-6, Moore has proven to be one of the most dangerous heavyweights with 10 of his victories coming by way of knockout. Moore made his professional debut in 2020 when he scored an emphatic first round knockout over Nick Pinnock, setting the tone for his dominant career. Born into a family of professional athletes, Moore’s father was the captain of the Trinidad & Tobago national soccer team, while two of his younger brothers are currently professional soccer players. On the strength of two straight TKO victories Moore most recently defeated Miguel Viloria in November of 2024 and looks to build upon his momentum on Sunday, February 2.
“I am extremely excited to be joining Salita Promotions,” said Moore. “Being able to see what they have in store for me is amazing, and there’s no better way to be starting this relationship than on Sunday, February 2, when I take on Lacy. He’s a tough opponent, and I’m going to go in there and take care of business like I always do. It’s an honor to share the card with the GWOAT Claressa Shields. She is the best to ever do it, and I’m ready to put on a show for Flint.”
“A world-class American heavyweight is a rare breed, and Brandon Moore embodies everything it takes to stand out,” said Dmitriy Salita, CEO of Salita Promotions. “He’s got the personality, athleticism, and the drive to be the best, and he’s proving it by stepping up to face undefeated, battle-tested opponent Skylar Lacy for the USBA Vacant Heavyweight World Title. February 2nd will be a night to remember for heavyweight boxing in the boxing-crazed city of Flint and seen exclusively on DAZN!”
