“Prince” Lucas Bahdi has signed with Jake Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions after fighting on the undercard of Paul’s main event against Mike Tyson last week.
Bahdi, a 30-year-old lightweight out of Canada, improved his record to 18-0 with 15 knockouts with a decision victory over previously undefeated Armando Casamonica (14-1, 3 KOs) on the Nov. 15 card. That followed a knockout win over H2O Sylve on the main card of the Jake Paul-Mike Perry fight in July.
Bahdi is undefeated since making his professional debut in 2019, winning his first 11 fights by knockout.
“Signing with an innovative promoter, who puts fighters first, is one of the goals I’ve been working towards since I turned professional in 2019,” Bahdi said in a statement. “I’m thrilled to be joining the Most Valuable Promotions team because I know that Jake Paul’s vision for boxers’ careers inside the ring and outside the ring will take me to where I want to be… a world champion and a star.
“Fighting on the Paul vs. Tyson undercard was just the beginning. I’m excited to keep showing the world what I’ve got.”
