<p>Her opponents are yet to be announced, but each fight is to be staged on BT Sport and BoxNation. Her recruitment represents Warren&#8217;s promised big signing to launch his new platform on BT Sport.</p>
<p>The development also comes despite Warren, 64, previously criticising women&#8217;s boxing, and ends Adams&#8217; hopes to pursue a third Olympic gold medal at Tokyo 2020.</p>
<p>Ireland&#8217;s Katie Taylor last year made her professional debut with Warren&#8217;s rivals Matchroom, and Adams said: <i>&#8220;I want to take women&#8217;s boxing to the next level, become a world champion and do great things.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s going to be quite different: no headgear for one. I have to create my own team now, but I&#8217;m really excited about doing that.&#8221;</i></p>
<p>Warren, who sat alongside Adams as the announcement was made at the BT Tower in central London, said: <i>&#8220;I&#8217;ve not been the greatest advocate of women&#8217;s boxing. My head&#8217;s been turned.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve had to eat humble pie, and thought &#8216;Are you a dinosaur?&#8217; I&#8217;ve always appreciated any ladies who are fighting. But what she (Adams) has done for me is turn my head. Who am I to be the person to say I&#8217;m not going to do women&#8217;s boxing on BT?&#8221;</i></p>
