Oxon Hill, MD lightweight "The Dark Menace" Tiara Brown has announced that she has signed a promotional contract with DiBella Entertainment.
At the announcement ceremony held at the Kenilworth Recreation Center in Washington, DC., Brown said her contract will be a three-year deal with a scheduled three bouts per year.
"Words cannot express how happy I am to sign with Dibella Entertainment," Brown said during the ceremony. "All my career I've not only dreamed of the day that I would be a signed fighter, but I trained hard and kept the faith so my dream could become a reality."
Brown, a native of Fort Myers, FL, had a stellar amateur career that was highlighted by two gold medals at the World Championships and two trips to the Olympic Trials. Brown is 4-0 with two knockouts as a pro. Brown leads a very busy life as she also holds a full-time job as a police officer with the Washington, DC Metropolitan Police Department. According to DiBella Entertainment chair Lou DiBella, Brown's life as a boxer and police officer was a big reason why he wanted to sign Brown under contract.
"I believe in Tiara as a fighter and I appreciate what she brings in and out of the ring and especially as a public servant/police officer," DiBella said in a statement.
DiBella Entertainment has a number of female boxers under contract, including Heather Hardy, Alicia Napoleon, Shelly Vincent and Amanda Serrano. Brown will also join two other Beltway Boxers --Alantez Fox and Demond Nicholson -- under the DiBella banner.
Brown will compete in her final bout as a free agent on Saturday, June 30th at the Sphinx Club in Washington, DC when she will headline the card against Carla Torres of Cleveland, OH.
