Adrian Clark has years of experience as a boxing manager, and he’s bringing his knowledge to Fight Network to help develop boxing television content.

Longtime boxing manager Adrian Clark is bringing a wealth of business knowledge to his new position as a boxing programming consultant for Fight Network, which is a subsidiary of Anthem Sports and Entertainment. Fight Network is an entertainment content provider known for covering MMA and Impact! Wrestling, but they’re adding boxing to their repertoire.

Clark’s entry into boxing is fascinating and the subject of his autobiographical new book Dark HorseAfter struggling to make ends meet during and shortly after college, Clark navigated his path from a certified sports agent through the National Basketball Players Association to a career as a successful boxing manager. Clark’s journey was far from easy but highly engaging, as recounted in his latest book.

The author of four books, Clark’s new affiliation with Fight Network marks the next chapter in his life. He has managed and advised numerous boxers, including Jerry Belmontes, Willie Monroe Jr., Frank Galarza, Chris ”Milly” Ousley, Jarrell “Big Baby” Miller and Errol Spence Jr.

Clark is well known for his Protect Yourself at All Times (PYaAT) concept, which has been the subject of a book and podcast. PYaAT was developed by Clark as a means of educating boxers of the pitfalls of the boxing business. One of his main tasks with Fight Network will be to turn PYaAT into a televised series. He will also be tasked with developing other shows and helping Fight Network broaden its boxing news coverage.

Clark is no longer managing boxers to give his consultation responsibilities with Fight Network his undivided attention.

“I look forward to working with Fight Network on enhancing the depth of its boxing coverage,” said Clark via a press release. “Working closely alongside my network of industry contacts and the FN Studios original production team, we will develop new programming to put the spotlight on the sweet science and topics that are often overshadowed in mainstream coverage. With its recent resurgence in mainstream popularity, this as an opportune time to bring Fight Network subscribers unprecedented coverage of their favorite boxing stars, both inside the ring and behind the scenes.”

With Clark on board, Fight Network’s future in boxing looks bright.
