The home of the heavyweights keeps cornering the market by adding contenders to its roster.
Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions has signed Guido Vianello to a promotional deal, it was announced on Thursday.
"The Gladiator" Vianello (14-3-1, 12 KOs) is a 32-year-old from Italy who competed in the 2016 Olympics.
The 6-foot-6, 245-pounder signed a promotional contract with Top Rank upon turning pro in 2018 but has experienced mixed results in recent years with a record of 4-3 over his last seven outings.
Vianello lost to the likes of Richard Torrez (UD10), Efe Ajagba (SD10) and Jonathan Rice (TKO7) but scored a career-best win against Arslanbek Makhmudov (TKO8) in 2024.
Vianello last fought in November and notched a fifth-round knockout against then-unbeaten contender Alexis Barriere on the Jaron Ennis-Uisma Lima undercard.
As such, the eight-year pro should have no shortage of options when it comes to competing against world-class peers after a proposed clash with Martin Bakole in May fell through.
Queensberry lists the following heavyweights as part of its roster (in alphabetical order): David Adeleye, Jared Anderson, Derek Chisora, Solomon Dacres, Daniel Dubois, Tyson Fury, Filip Hrgovic, Moses Itauma, Joe Joyce, Agit Kabayel, Lawrence Okolie, Joseph Parker, Fabio Wardley, Tony Yoka and Zhilei Zhang.
