Carl Frampton has signed a promotional deal with Frank Warren.
Frampton, the only Northern Irishman to have won world titles in two weight classes, had been guided by Barry McGuigan since turning professional in 2009.
However, the pair split last month after what has so far been a forgettable year for the Belfast fighter, who surrendered his world featherweight title after suffering his first defeat as a professional to Leo Santa Cruz in their January rematch.
There was further frustration for 30-year-old Frampton when a homecoming bout against Andres Gutierrez on July 29 was unexpectedly called off at the 11th hour.
That contest was due to be an eliminator for the WBC featherweight crown but Frampton came in one pound over the 126lb limit and the event was scrapped altogether after Gutierrez sustained injuries after slipping in the shower.
Warren - who has a television deal with BT Sport - announced the Frampton signing on his official Twitter account.
It completes a full overhaul of Frampton's team, with McGuigan's son, Shane, replaced as his trainer by Jamie Moore.

Writing in the Sunday Life, the Jackal said: "This is a deal I believe will give me the best chance to have massive fights that I crave and I have been guaranteed that I will be fighting at Windsor Park next summer.
"I felt that the overall package that Frank Warren and BT Sport were offering me was the deciding factor.
"I'm desperate to kick on and have a fight before Christmas and I can confirm that I will be fighting in Belfast.
"My homecoming ended up being a mess in July when Andres Guttierrez fell in the shower after I hadn't made the 9st featherweight limit.
"But now I suppose it's the homecoming 2.0 and I'll have more details about the deal later this week at a press conference."
