Los Angeles — Wise Owl Boxing, led by founder Mark Habibi, has officially signed rising professional contender Jalen “Skywalker” Walker (15-1) to a management agreement, adding another promising young fighter to the company’s growing stable.
Walker enters the partnership as an emerging talent with an impressive amateur pedigree and a strong start to his professional career. Known for his athleticism, speed, and sharp ring IQ, the young standout has quickly developed a reputation as a dangerous competitor and one of the most intriguing prospects in the lower weight divisions.
Habibi expressed excitement about bringing Walker into the Wise Owl team and guiding the next phase of his career.
“Jalen is a tremendous young fighter with a deep amateur background and a lot of upside,” said Habibi. “He has the talent, the work ethic, and the mentality to become a serious contender in this sport. We’re very excited to welcome him to Wise Owl Boxing.”
As part of the new partnership, Walker will now train under respected coach Trevor Sambrano, who is widely recognized for working with world-class contender Brandon Adams. The addition of Sambrano to Walker’s corner is expected to accelerate the fighter’s development as he prepares to face tougher competition.
“Linking Jalen with Trevor Sambrano is a major step forward,” Habibi added. “Trevor has proven he can prepare fighters to compete at the highest levels of the sport. I believe he’s going to help take Jalen to the next level.”
Wise Owl Boxing will also continue collaborating with Walker’s promoter, Patrick Ragan of Westside Promotions, to carefully map out the fighter’s path in the professional ranks and secure meaningful opportunities inside the ring.
Habibi believes Walker is only a few fights away from breaking into the world rankings, with a long-term goal of contending for a major championship.
“Our plan is to move Jalen aggressively but intelligently,” said Habibi. “Working alongside Patrick Ragan and Westside Promotions, I believe he’ll be ranked in the top 15 within a few fights and climbing the rankings as we work toward a world title opportunity.”
Walker now joins a rapidly expanding Wise Owl Boxing roster that includes several accomplished fighters such as IBF world title contender Brandon Adams, WBC-ranked contender Charles Conwell, undefeated prospect Ebenezer Griffith, Mexican Olympian Brianda Tamara Cruz, and fan-favorite contender Chantel Navarro.
With a strong team behind him and a clear roadmap for his future, Jalen “Skywalker” Walker now begins the next chapter of his career as he continues his climb toward championship contention in the professional boxing ranks.
