IBF Lightweight Champion, Richard Commey
IBF Lightweight Champion Richard Commey has confirmed the inclusion of renowned American boxing manager Keith Connolly to his management team.
This comes a few hours after the Ghanaian denied reports suggesting the said appointment.
The 31-year-old took to his official Twitter handle to confirm the news, with Connolly set to work alongside Commey’s longtime manager Michael Amoo-Bediako.
Connolly also manages Daniel Jacobs, Adam Kownacki, Sergey Derevyanchenko and Marcus Brown.
Commey was slated to fight unified champion Vasyl Lomachenko in April before suffering a hand injury in his title-clinching bout against Russian Isa Chaniev back in February.
I am really excited to announce that Keith Connolly will now be working alongside my long time manager @Mickey_Moo to take my career to the next level, everyone knows Keith’s expertise and together they will for a formidable team ????????????????@danrafaelespn @MikeCoppinger @StevESPNKim
