SBC Charity Boxing Championship Goes Live This Friday: Gaming Industry Leaders Step Into the Ring

SBC’s Charity Boxing Championship will be streamed live this Friday, as 12 white-collar fighters from across the gaming industry step into the ring to battle it out for personal pride, company bragging rights, and a worthy cause.

The night’s full fight card will be available to watch live via a dedicated stream powered by Gr8Tech, with the first ring walk set for 9pm, allowing those unable to attend to follow the action in real time.

Hosted at the London Hilton Park Lane this Friday, the championship will bring together over 500 guests for an exclusive black-tie event, featuring a champagne reception, three-course dinner, charity auction, and after party.

At its core, the night supports Oliver’s Wish Foundation, which funds children’s charities focused on research and supporting families affected by loss, with backing from Platinum Sponsor Gamingtec and a wide range of supporting partners.

Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC said: “SBC’s Charity Boxing Championship has become a special part of the gaming industry’s calendar. Not only is it a chance for the representatives from various companies to gain bragging rights, but we’re able to raise money for the Oliver’s Wish Foundation and the vital work they do.

“The level of commitment we’ve seen from this year’s fighters has been exceptional. Credit to each of them for stepping into the ring. Their willingness to push beyond their comfort zone, in support of a meaningful cause, makes this event so powerful.”

At the heart of the event are the 12 fighters, whose months of hard work, commitment and training will culminate on Friday as they step into the ring to test their limits.

The fight card is as follows: 

• Kai Hill (Dennis & Dyer) vs Majid Rodriguez (Product Manager, Super)
• Ahmed Baker (Chief Commercial Officer, Incentive Games) vs Rory Kimber (Commercial Director, Lucky Streak)
• Jessica Lee-Green (Partnership Team Manager, Games Global) vs Ferial Abarghooie (Director Of Account Management, G Games)
• Tamas Kusztos (Co-Founder, SharedLuck) vs Sapar Karyagdyyev (Founder, GamingTec)
• Ben Cleminson (CEO, Square in the Air) vs Rob Fell (CEO, RiskCherry)
• Nikki Timmins (Head of Account Management, Blue Sakura Solutions) vs Lex Scott (VP Gaming, ITV)

The evening will open with a drinks reception and seated dinner, building towards the opening three bouts. A charity auction will follow, with all proceeds going to Oliver’s Wish Foundation, before the final three fights take centre stage. The event will then close with an after-party.
