Jonathan “The King” Guidry built his career on the Louisiana circuit, turning professional in 2014 and reaching 17–0–2 before his first title challenge.
The Bryan challenge and rebuilding wins
Trevor Bryan beat him by split decision over twelve rounds in Warren, Ohio, on January 29, 2022, retaining the WBA’s secondary Regular title. Guidry gave away height and size but stayed competitive and won one judge’s card.
He rebuilt with four successive victories. A win over Dacarree Scott was followed by a ten-round unanimous decision against former WBC champion Bermane Stiverne in Miami in January 2023, then a victory over Jesus Escalera.
Bobby O’Bannon was dropped late in the second round of their April 2024 fight in Biloxi. He reached the bell but did not come out for the third.
The Minda setback
Jeyson Minda beat Guidry by unanimous decision in Kenner, Louisiana, on October 17, 2025, ending that winning run. His reported record is 21–2–2 (13 KOs). No next fight has been announced.
