Brandon Glanton vowed to never disrespect another fighter after he learned a painful lesson against Chris Billam-Smith in London, England six months ago.

So he insisted his victory over Marcus Browne in Lagos, Nigeria Wednesday night was ‘especially sweet’ as he had his revenge over the New Yorker for the disrespect he felt from him six years ago.

Glanton and Browne met in the main event of the Chaos in the Ring event staged in collaboration between Amir Khan’s AK Promotions and Balmoral Promotions. There had been a bad-tempered build-up between the pair, who were separated by camouflage-clad security guards during a heated face off this week.

Once the action got underway at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Browne started the fight well but Glanton weathered the early storm and came into his own during a hellacious sixth round. So heavy was the beating that Browne failed to answer the bell to start the seventh, opting to stay seated on his stool.

For Glanton it drew a line under a rivalry which has bubbled for years, since, he claims, Browne made disrespectful comments about his mother and sister.

“It’s all in the past now,” Glanton said after his hand was raised. “I don’t have any hate for that man, I won.”

It has been a year of ups and downs for Glanton (20-3, 17 KOs), who was beaten by former WBO cruiserweight champion Billam-Smith at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Apr. 26.

He had come under fire for some disgraceful comments during the build-up to that fight, when he told his opponent he was going to give him brain damage and then suggested that Billam-Smith’s young son has a ‘b—h for a daddy’.

But it was CBS who rammed those comments down his throat in the ring as he won via a convincing unanimous decision.

“I disrespected somebody in England, I’ll never do that again,” Glanton said.

“Now this fight was especially sweet, not because it was for the most money or the biggest titles. I was disrespected by another man. We put our pants on the same, I didn’t appreciate being disrespected, I didn’t appreciate the comments that were made. I didn’t appreciate it back in 2019 when it all took place.

“But I told you the boy was going to quit. I told you he could fight but they said I couldn’t box. It’s all boxing; power, inside fighting, outside fighting, holding, great hands.

“You’ve got Caleb Plants, you’ve got Mike Tysons you’ve for Amir Khans, you’ve got Mikey Garcias and you’ve got Brandon Glanton. It’s all different. I haven’t got to be fancy, I’m rough.”

The 33-year-old suggested that he would now like a second fight with Browne following this scheduled 10-rounder. “Now let’s do it over 12,” he said. “And make it count by getting a belt on the line.”

Browne (25-2, 16 KOs), 34, was boxing for only the second time since he was stopped by Artur Beterbiev in 2021.
