NEW YORK (March 29, 2024) New York’s Kurt Scoby, one of boxing’s top rising prospects, made his debut under the DiBella Entertainment (DBE) banner headlining Broadway Boxing last year on June 29, facing former world title challenger Hank Lundy. The event, held at Sony Hall in Times Square, New York City, was promoted by DiBella Entertainment in association with Boxing Insider Promotions. Catch Scoby and all of the action from that card premiering on SNY this Sunday, March 31, at 7:00pm ET.
Trained by Don Saxby out of Gleason’s Gym in Brooklyn, NY, Scoby, now 13-0 (11 KOs), is coming off of three impressive wins in 2023. In his last fight, on August 18, Scoby earned a sixth-round stoppage win against previously unbeaten Narciso Carmona, of Sevilla, Andalucia, Spain, on DAZN as part of the Overtime series.
He began 2023 handing previously unbeaten Aussie prospect John Mannu his first defeat via second-round stoppage on Showtime’s “ShoBox” series on a card promoted by DiBella Entertainment. Four months later, Scoby was signed to DBE and making his New York debut against the experienced Lundy, of Philadelphia, PA.
“2023 was a breakout year for Scoby, who has the talent, power and charisma to become a star. He beat two undefeated prospects and a former world title challenger. Against Lundy, Scoob mixed in a devastating body attack with sharp shots upstairs to expertly dismantle the hard-nosed Philadelphia veteran. Tune in to SNY this Sunday to watch this impressive performance,” said Lou DiBella, President of DiBella Entertainment. “Boxing fans will get to see Scoby back in action soon, as he takes on the cagey Dakota Linger on April 19, returning to the Overtime series on DAZN.”
