ImageBoxing is a one of the most renowned contact sports around the world. Dating back to the 3rd millennium BCE, it evolved to become a competitive sport in ancient Greece, remained popular in ancient Rome, and received a revival in the 17th century London as bare-knuckled fight for prizes.

Today, boxing matches attract a huge number of live and TV audiences throughout the world. Legends like Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, Mike Tyson and company inspire people from all walks of life to participate in the sport. Here in the UK, not only we love to watch boxing matches, we have also produced boxing champs like Olympic Champion Nicola Adams, IBF heavyweight title holder Anthony Joshua and the world famous David Hayes.

As a company who believes strongly in giving young people a chance to excel in sports, we gladly sponsor Sam Eggington, who has taken an incredible journey to become a professional boxer and is the current WBC International Silver welterweight titleholder.

13 May 2017

13th of May is a big day for boxing fans. At the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham, Kal Yafai will fight against Suguru Muranaka for the WBA super-flyweight world championship title. In the same event, Sam Eggington will fight against Ceferino Rodriguez in the welterweight contest. This is a big moment for Sam and he is training very hard for it.

Attending a boxing match

Boxing matches are about comradeship. The rules are simple. The actions are unpredictable. And to see people train very hard, push themselves far beyond their limits, and have the never-give-up spirit is inspiring.

In London, big boxing matches usually take place at the Wembley Stadium, O2 Arena, and of course, the Copper Box Arena in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Smaller matches take place in leisure centres and other venues across London as well.

Book a coach or a minibus for boxing matches

Like other sports, attending boxing matches with your friends and fellow supporters is an incredible experience. This is why we offer coach and minibus hire at an attractive prize for boxing fans, so you can attend epic bouts in a group.

Your safely and comfort are our top priorities. Our drivers will pick your group up and take you back home, no matter what time it is. They are also good at route planning, ensuring you get to your event on time. Our fleet of minibuses and coaches are spacious and pleasant, complete with an on board toilet and entertainment units. This means if you need to make a long journey to see an epic match hours away, you get there and back comfortably.

Did you know we are the preferred transport supplier for Matchroomboxing.com? Head over and buy your tickets for the upcoming fights then return here to hire your minibus.

Call us on 01923 247765 to hire a MET minibus or coach for any upcoming boxing match you want to experience with your mates.
