Charlie Hoy wants WBA world flyweight champion Artem Dalakian
MTK Global have announced the signing of the fourth-ranked flyweight in the world; Hertfordshire’s unbeaten Charlie Hoy (15-0-KO10) as he set his sights on world honours in 2019.
The Enfield-born 28-year-old boasts a stunning record of 15-0-KO10 and was most recently seen in September when blasting aside Donny Garcia in defence of the WBA Fedelatin title.
Hoy said: “I’m delighted. I believe MTK Global will improve me as a boxer by getting me the fights I need and the fights I deserve. They’re the best in the business.
“I’ve been world-ranked for some time so all that remains for me to do is become world champion and then target the other world champions.
“Artem Dalakian is my first target as he’s the current WBA belt-holder. Once I’ve beaten him, I’m coming for all of the others too.
“The flyweights are getting more exposure now – ever since Roman Gonzalez showed just how exciting flyweight fights can be. Now we’ve got to keep it exciting to preserve that reputation.”
MTK Global President Bob Yalen added: “It’s always an honour to bring a world-class fighter onto the team, and that’s exactly what we’ve got here.
“Charlie has proven himself to be an elite fighter during his undefeated career, and he is already rated as the fourth best flyweight in the world by the WBA. We believe that the best is still yet to come.
“We look forward to helping Charlie achieve his ultimate goal of becoming world champion and defending his title in front of his hometown fans. It’s going to be an enjoyable journey.”
