Kathy duva age

News Worldwide. Attorney Kurt Emhoff has a podcast called Boxing Esquire , and the fight game insider, having worked in the sport for three decades, has a sharp depth of knowledge of the sport, both inside and outside the ring.

Kathy Duva is an American boxing promoter and current CEO of Main Events, a New Jersey-based boxing promotion company.

In his latest effort, he chatted with New Jersey based promoter Kathy Duva , who herself has 40 years within the boxing sphere. No surprise, Duva showed the breadth and depth of her acumen. And, she continued, the price is right to platform owners and rights buyers. Duva and her team have been consistently rebuffed when seeking advertisers and sponsors in the business world, because people have been leery of aligning with this red light district of sports.

She returned to that issue, noting that fights can end in one round, and that can make a spot buyer leery. It will take some getting used to, she said, not having HBO to appreciate.

Born Kathy Martone on June 29, Duva earned a BA in English from Montclair State University and began her career as a reporter and editor at the Wayne Today Newspapers .

She shared her recollection that a pal called it when Seth Abraham had the free reign to toss mega money at people like Vinny Paziena. Nicole told Kathy a few years ago that the trend would be toward streaming, and she noted that she dealt with ESPN in the early 80s, and now again, as they seek to build their stream foundation. Duva was asked about the new world order, and her plan to try and book more fights.

Too many fights involving the elites are not coin flip fights, she continued. A platform and the funds for those sorts of fights, there is a market for that. She saw it with her then teen son when he saw Arturo Gatti on TV. That was what opened his eyes to the promise of the sport.
