Mansion sportsbook expands UK boxing sponsorship portfolio

Mansion Group has announced a number of new boxing sponsorships over the coming months to further increase exposure for its MansionBet sportsbook product.

The operator supported George Groves in his February fight against Chris Eubank Junior and also sponsored Dillian Whyte’s Heavyweight Title victory over Lucas Browne on Saturday.

And the SBTech-powered sportsbook will again partner with Groves in his World Boxing Super Series final in July, pending the boxer’s recovery from a shoulder injury.

The firm will also sponsor the Featherweight fight between Lee Selby and Josh Warrington in May through sports performance marketing agency Project11.

Mansion CEO Karel Manasco said: “We were thrilled that Groves won his semi-final fight, and are pleased to continue our partnership with him as he prepares for the final.

“Adding to the excitement, we are delighted to extend our support of prominent British boxers, with the sponsorships of both Dillian Whyte and Lee Selby.

“Aligning our sportsbook, MansionBet, alongside this popular sport feels like a natural fit, and we look forward to introducing our brand to such an impressive audience,” he added.

Mansion recently bolstered its in-house marketing team with the appointment of Dana Bocker from Rank Group.
