Originally published by AllHipHop Read the original
Chrisean Rock turned her hometown boxing debut into a fast finish, scoring her first professional victory Saturday night in Baltimore.
Fighting as Chrisean “Holy Hands” Malone, Rock defeated Ku’Shiyah Williams by second-round technical knockout at the Hyatt Regency Baltimore Inner Harbor.
Forbes reported that both women entered the bout with no professional records, giving Rock a sanctioned 1-0 start while Williams fell to 0-1.
Rock established her jab during the opening round before forcing Williams backward and connecting with repeated right hands near the ropes.
She pressed harder during round two until Williams stopped responding effectively, prompting the referee to end the scheduled four-round contest.
Afterward, Rock thanked the Baltimore crowd before teasing another appearance and performing part of her Gospel record, “YAHWEH,” inside the ring.
“I know y’all ready to see the next fight,” Rock said during her celebration following the victory.
The result completed a rapid climb that AllHipHop traced before the fight, beginning with Rock’s professional license and her refusal to remain in celebrity boxing.
“I got my pro license today, chat. I’m a pro boxer! Y’all want to see? It’s four of them. I’m a pro! I’m a pro! Look! Go look me up on BoxRec. 0-0-0. I have no record yet, chat!” Rock said while announcing the license.
She then made her intentions clear while discussing the Baltimore date and the standards required for anyone seeking to face her.
“I’m serious. No celebrity boxing for me. If you want to fight me, you gotta go pro. I’m having my first pro boxing match September 19th,” Rock said.
Rock’s path began well before Saturday because she competed in track events after starting organized training around age 12.
She later reached Junior Olympics competition in sprint and relay events, building the speed and conditioning that eventually supported her move toward boxing.
Rock entered combat sports through XRumble after signing with promoter Damon Feldman in January alongside her manager, Kimberly Ross.
Her first crossover contest came April 25 against professional wrestler Zenith Zion, whom Rock defeated by split decision after scoring an early knockdown.
That victory did not appear on her official professional ledger, making Saturday’s stoppage her first recognized win in the paid ranks.
Rock prepared under Baltimore trainer Calvin Ford, best known for guiding former world champion Gervonta “Tank” Davis through his decorated career.
Before entering the ring, Rock described her preparation as a demanding process built around faith, repetition and sharper personal discipline.
“This journey has required discipline, sacrifice, prayer, and a whole different level of focus. Now it’s time to put the work on display,” Rock wrote. “I’m not stepping in there just to participate. I’m stepping in there to show what I’ve been building.”
Rock had not announced an opponent or date for her second professional bout as of Sunday night.
