Triller hires boxing manager Peter Kahn to run its Fight Club

Triller Fight Club has hired boxing manager Peter Kahn to fill its newly created position of Chief Boxing Officer. Kahn is an industry veteran who has worked both on the promotional side and management side of boxing for 25 years. Triller Fight Club is a partnership between Triller and Snoop Dogg spearheaded by Triller's Ryan Kavanaugh. Kahn’s duties will consist of overseeing all boxing related aspects to the Triller Fight Club events that will include matches at the world championship, contender and top prospect level. Kahn, a Florida resident, is the manager of George Kambosos Jr, who will be fighting Teofimo Lopez on the Triller Fight Club event in June for the undisputed lightweight championship of the world as part of Triller Fight Club’s second event of 2021.
 
“We are excited have Peter formally join us in this critical role as we expand and advance the boxing side of Triller Fight Club,” Kavanaugh said. “In a very short period of time as we set up for our April 17th, June and July events it became clear that he is one of the smartest, most respected people in the sport, as well as someone who shares our vision for changing the way boxing can be presented as a sports and entertainment property. His input to date has been invaluable, and it will continue to grow as we expand our business this year and beyond.”
 
“I am looking forward to adding quality fights and providing the fans with matchups that will appeal to the hard-core and casual boxing fans alike to complement the four-quadrant model of Triller Fight Club that consists of influencers, legends, music artists and contemporary fighters.” Kahn said. “I will work closely with the major promoters and managers in the sport to find ways to elevate the profiles of the fighters while providing entertainment to the pay-per-view audience. The Triller platform itself is an excellent vehicle for the fighters to grow their brand, connect with fans and build their social media following as they progress in their careers.”
 
Kahn is also a boxing contributor to Forbes and Associate Producer of Original Netflix Series “Fightworld.”
