Gibraltar-based online betting group MansionBet has announced its official sponsorship of unbeaten British boxing prospects Anthony Fowler and Jordan Gill.
The sportsbook’s branding will make its first appearance as a sponsor on 2 March as Gill faces Emmanuel Dominguez for the vacant WBA International Featherweight title – followed by the highly anticipated all British affair on 30 March, when Anthony Fowler clashes with Scott Fitzgerald.
Shelly Suter Hadad, COO & Managing Director of Mansion Group, said: “This is another exciting opportunity for us to support British Boxing and strengthen the MansionBet name throughout the UK sports world, as well as having our brand featured live on Sky Sports.”
MansionBet showed clear intentions in supporting boxing during the company’s first year of operations – sponsoring a range of fighters including George Groves, Dillian Whyte, Lee Selby and most recently, the Ultimate Boxxer II competition.
The deal, constructed through Matchroom Boxing and Project11, will have MansionBet sponsoring Fowler for four fights and Gill for his upcoming title fight.
Group Managing Director of Matchroom Sport Eddie Hearn commended MansionBet’s support of the next generation of British boxers.
He said: “Anthony is one of the most exciting young boxers in the country and is going to be involved with some huge fights during his career.
“His next step up on the 30th March in Liverpool against Scott Fitzgerald promises to be all action and I can’t wait. He’s a big personality outside the ring, and just as entertaining inside it. It’s great to see MansionBet supporting him and the next generation of British boxing.”
