Mark McGuinness bwManchester based igaming operator Betfred have confirmed a sponsorship agreement with UK 24 hour boxing television channel – BoxNation. Betfred will become the main sponsor of two British boxing events to be hosted this summer by BoxNation and Frank Warren Promotions.

Frank Warren Promotions has announced that Betfred in-play betting will be the main sponsor of the upcoming ‘Behind Enemy Lines card at Wembley Arena on July 20, which features a headline fight of heavyweights Dereck Chisora against the USA’s Malik Scott.

Betfred will additionally sponsor the World Boxing Organisation fight of Wales Nathan Cleverly vs Russia’s Sergey Kovalev, the fight being scheduled for the Cardiff Motorpoint Arena on August 17th.

Both fights will be broadcast on dedicated 24 hour boxing channel BoxNation, which can be accessed by the public through Virgin, BT and Sky Tv-cable boxsets or viewed through an online live-stream. BoxNation is owned by renowned UK boxing promoted Frank Warren, who has more than thirty years of experience in UK and international boxing promotion.

Warren commented:“I’m delighted to work with Betfred once again for our two big summer events and would like to thank Fred Done for his tremendous support towards our shows.”

Betfred co-founder Fred Done commented: Both the Wembley and Cardiff events will show British boxing at its best. Chisora is a controversial character and will always make for an exciting fight and Cleverly is on the top of his game, so I’m looking forward to what I’m sure will be an action packed night of top British boxing.
