ClickOut Media donates £5,000 to Liverpool's Rotunda Amateur Boxing Club

Marketing agency ClickOut Media announced on 10 January 2025 that it had donated £5,000 to the Rotunda Amateur Boxing Club in Liverpool, a charity-run gym where former professional boxer Tony Bellew currently trains alongside other fighters from the city.

The donation followed discussions between the agency and Bellew, who now works with ClickOut Media as a boxing analyst and pundit since retiring from the ring. Bellew described the Rotunda as instrumental to his career and personal development, crediting coach Jimmy Albertina and the club with helping him become world champion.

Grassroots support

The Rotunda ABC is a listed charity that depends on donations to continue offering training facilities for young people in the area. According to Bellew, the club’s coaches are unpaid volunteers who cover their own expenses, including travel to competitions, while helping produce national champions each year.

Owen Fulda, Head of Press Content at ClickOut Media, said the donation was the first in a planned series of contributions, with Bellew having recommended the Rotunda given its significance to his own career. Fulda said the agency, which works with a number of boxers connected to brands it represents, had been told by those fighters that grassroots sport was a particularly important cause amid the current cost of living pressures.

Bellew’s professional career included a world title reign at cruiserweight before his final fight ended in defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, who has since gone on to further success in the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions.

ClickOut Media said the Rotunda donation forms part of a wider pattern of charitable giving in sport, having previously supported Bob Wilson’s Willow Foundation, Haven House Hospice and the Matchroom Charitable Foundation in 2024.

ClickOut Media describes itself as a data and technology-led marketing network operating across sectors including finance, health and betting.
