The room

It starts in the gym, not the boardroom

Boxing sponsorship has always been done on a handshake — a local firm, a coach who knows someone, a name on the back of a robe. That works right up until the fighter needs to explain their value to a brand that has never set foot in a gym.

  • Structured profile: record, weight class, gym, city and audience in one place.
  • Sponsorship packages priced and described by the athlete themselves.
  • One conversation thread instead of a chain of forwarded DMs.

Camp

Eight weeks a brand can actually be part of

A fight camp is a story with a fixed deadline: weight, sparring, the weigh-in, the walk. For a sponsor that is a content window with a beginning and an end — far easier to plan around than an open-ended influencer arrangement.

  • Camp diaries, sparring footage and weigh-in coverage.
  • Appearance days at your premises, events or open sessions.
  • Longer ambassador relationships that run across several camps.

“Every fighter has a story worth backing. Most of them just have nowhere professional to tell it.”

Why Official Athletes exists

Formats

What boxing sponsorship can look like

Formats are agreed between the sponsor and the athlete. Anything worn or displayed in competition depends on the rules of the promotion and governing body, so nothing here is guaranteed by the platform.

  1. 01

    Training-camp content

    Weekly footage and photography from the run-up to a fight, with your brand present in the work rather than bolted on afterwards.

  2. 02

    Athlete social campaigns

    Agreed posts across the athlete's own channels, timed to camp milestones and fight week.

  3. 03

    Appearances

    Store openings, corporate days, school and community sessions, open workouts.

  4. 04

    Ambassador partnership

    A longer relationship across multiple camps rather than a single fight.

  5. 05

    Kit and shorts visibility

    Training kit and walkout gear where the athlete controls it; competition placement is subject to event and federation rules.

  6. 06

    Local business support

    Straightforward supporter deals where a local firm backs a fighter from their own area.

Talk to us
How much does it cost to sponsor a UK boxer?+

There is no fixed rate. Athletes set their own package prices on their profile, and the range on the platform runs from small local supporter deals up to full camp partnerships. Sponsor access to the directory starts at £99/month.

What can a boxer actually offer a sponsor?+

Typically training-camp content, social posts, appearances, ambassador work and equipment or kit visibility. Anything worn in competition is subject to the rules of the promotion and governing body, so kit placement is agreed case by case.

How do I know a profile is genuine?+

Public profiles are reviewed before they are approved and listed. Record, gym and audience details are supplied by the athlete, so we recommend sponsors do their own due diligence before agreeing terms.

How does payment work?+

Official Athletes charges 10% commission on completed deals. Payment processing is not live yet — the platform tracks proposals and conversations, and payments are settled directly between sponsor and athlete.
