A Multifaceted Leader in Sports and Business
After completing his undergraduate studies at Florida A&M University and earning a graduate degree from Nova Southeastern University, Gary Lewis embarked on a successful career in professional sports as an NFL agent. He later transitioned to boxing, where he has been instrumental in restoring the sport’s prominence. With over 25 years in professional sports, Gary Lewis serves as the President and CEO of Signature Punch, a brand encompassing various boxing-focused companies, including Signature Punch Training Centers, Signature Punch Promotions, and Signature Punch TV (SPTV). As a licensed boxing promoter, retired NFL sports agent, and seasoned boxing manager, Gary has successfully managed former world champions Antonio Tarver and Melissa Odessa Parker. His fighters have been featured on some of the largest boxing platforms and networks worldwide, solidifying his reputation in the industry.
In addition to his involvement in boxing, Mr. Lewis operates several private enterprises and collaborates with like-minded corporate partners to manage projects throughout the United States. His business portfolio spans various sectors, including professional sports, education, public speaking, coaching, training, consulting, and real estate. Through his companies, he has reached numerous milestones and helped countless individuals achieve their personal and professional aspirations. Gary co-founded a successful event planning company organizing the “Celebrities for Charity Weekend” in Las Vegas. This event, featuring over 150 celebrities, from NFL players to soap opera stars, raised $19 million and expanded to cities like Los Angeles, New York, and New Orleans over eight years. During this time, Gary’s growing reputation led to his involvement in the Rocky Balboa movie and further solidified his entry into boxing.
Gary further expanded his impact by establishing his own foundation dedicated to assisting high school athletes in transitioning to the next level, whether that involves pursuing college opportunities or advancing to the NFL. Leveraging his professional background and expertise, Gary became a trusted mentor, guiding young athletes toward their career goals. Fueled by his commitment to athlete development, he opened a gym and training center under a new brand called Signature Punch, combining his management expertise with hands-on training.
Signature Punch was developed in strategic layers, starting with the launch of the training facility. This foundation quickly expanded with the creation of SPTV, a production company responsible for handling all Pay Per View broadcasts and assembling a dedicated broadcast team. The next step was the establishment of Signature Punch Tickets, which allowed Gary to manage ticket sales through his own Ticketmaster-like portals. In 2020, Gary took another significant step by founding Signature Punch Promotions, positioning himself as a promoter on par with industry legends like Don King and Bob Arum. Despite the challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Gary successfully organized and promoted professional boxing shows.
In the last four years, Gary has developed two major boxing platforms, starting with the Title Night Series, a professional boxing event series. Through this platform, Gary built a strong partnership with the International Boxing Organization (IBO), a global sanctioning body, with fighters from the series holding several IBO titles. The Title Night Series stands out for its championship focus, consistently hosting a record number of title bouts. This has created a highly competitive environment where champions are forged and future world title contenders begin their journey to global boxing supremacy.
Additionally, the launch of the Influencer Championship Series (ICS), an innovative boxing platform poised to become the largest influencer and crossover boxing event in the world. Currently on a 10-city domestic tour, with negotiations for three international stops, the ICS aims to create a groundbreaking influencer crossover card that could be the most thrilling boxing event in the United States in 2025. The ICS Takeover Series is an elite professional promotion featuring both past and present stars showcasing their talents in the ring. With their substantial social media followings, these influencers are set to generate significant excitement and engagement from fans worldwide, driving impressive box office and pay-per-view sales.
