Professional career
Jean turned professional in 2006.[1] He is currently managed by Montreal-based Eye of the Tiger Management.[2]
Jean faced Lamont Peterson on January 25, 2014 in Washington, D.C., with Peterson's IBF Light Welterweight championship on the line.[3][4] Peterson won the fight by unanimous decision, handing Jean his first career loss.[5]
Gambling and alcohol dependence
In November 2014, Dierry Jean decided to abandon the rings for an indefinite period to settle his addiction to gambling and alcohol. The group Eye of the Tiger Management (EOTTM) announced that the 32-year-old boxer had visited a rehabilitation center to treat a disease that was taking more and more space in the last month.[6] On April 3, 2017, Jean was sentenced to 15 months in jail for robbery and drug possession, following events that incidentally happened in 2014.[7]
