Adam Maca Signs With Matchroom, Set To Make Summer Debut At MSG On Hitchins-Kambosos Card
Highly-touted amateur prospect Adam Maca has signed a promotional deal with Matchroom Boxing after making the decision to turn professional.

Maca, 17, made his name in the unpaid ranks by becoming a two-time Junior European champion and a five-time national champion. At world level, he picked up a silver medal while representing Albania, where he was born.

Maca said: "Since I was a little boy I wanted to be a professional boxer. I won't come to score points, I'll come to knock you out. I'm following my dreams, it's time to go to work."

Earlier this year, Maca signed a management deal with Sam Jones, who said: "This kid is a superstar, a freak of nature."

The Ring understands that Maca, who now lives in Brighton, will make his debut on June 14 at The Theater at Madison Square Garden, where Richardson Hitchins will defend his IBF junior-welterweight title in the main event against George Kambosos Jr.

Eddie Hearn recently told The Ring: "We're trying [to sign Maca]. I've said before, there's three of them - Leo Atang, Adam Maca and a girl called Tiah Ayton.

"They're all sensational, they're very young, it's quite unique that you get fighters that young who are actually looking to turn pro now.

"We've got Leo, we're hopeful on Adam, and I think we're in a great position with Tiah."

Hearn has now nabbed two of those three teenage starlets.

Matchroom signed 18-year-old Atang, who Hearn believes can be Britain's next superstar heavyweight, last month.

Atang will make his debut this summer, potentially on a card headlined by Jack Catterall in Manchester.
