Top Rank has signed WBA middleweight world champion Rob “Bravo” Brant to a multi-year co-promotional agreement with Greg Cohen Promotions and Rapacz Boxing, Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum announced today.

Brant, from St. Paul, Minn., defeated then-champion Ryota Murata via unanimous decision on Oct. 20 in Las Vegas, throwing a mind-boggling 1,262 punches. Brant (24-1, 16 KOs) is unbeaten as a middleweight and looking to unify the division.

Brant’s first fight under this new agreement will be announced shortly.

I don’t see the reason why a 160lb-er possessing a secondary world middleweight title, would decide to sign with Top Rank (and by proxy ESPN), when all the big guns are with DAZN and/or Al Haymon.

Arum does have a lot of middleweights he can play with. Not top 10 middleweights but still. He might try to lure Golovkin to fight him.
