ClickOut Media makes £5,000 donation to Rotunda Amateur Boxing Club in Liverpool
Marketing company ClickOut Media has made a donation of £5,000 to former professional boxer Tony Bellew, representative of the Rotunda Amateur Boxing Club, the gym which ‘saved his life’.
Tony Bellew is now becoming a prominent figure in the sports media world and following a chat with marketing agency Clickout Media, the firm felt moved to make a donation to the Rotunda ABC, which is where the former WBC Cruiserweight Champion currently trains, alongside a host of other Liverpudlian professional fighters and potential future champions.
The Rotunda is a listed charity and relies on donations from donors in order to continue to offer a place for youngsters to start their careers, train and gain a sense of self and belonging through sport.
Speaking to ClickOut Media, Bellew said of the Rotunda: “It’s an amazing gym, without those four walls and without Jimmy Albertina coming into my life when he did I would never have achieved what I have. It’s a cliche but boxing 100% saved my life. I don’t know what else I would have been doing. I was doing anything to make ends meet because I had this dream of one day becoming a world champion boxer.
“Apart from that dream I only dreamed of having nice things and let’s be honest I didn’t have the education behind me or the brain power to achieve those nice things and a kid coming from where I come from – that was only going to end one way. That’s the way it goes but thankfully I found Rotunda, I found Jimmy [Albertina]. I had good parents behind me and it worked out in the end. But without those four walls I don’t know what would have happened with my life.”
Since his retirement, Bellew has worked closely with ClickOut Media as a boxing analyst and pundit and the generous donation will help Rotunda ABC fund more champions.
He added: “All the amateur boxing coaches are unpaid. They’re doing it out of the kindness of their own heart. They’re doing it because they want to help kids, develop kids. And also they want to make national champions.
“The Rotunda ABC turns out national champions every single year. We really do so. And the coaches, as I said before, they’re not paid. So the least we can do is try and help them with their expenses. You know, traveling isn’t cheap. Whether it’s driving a bus, whether it’s getting on trains, these guys are going to different shows every day of the week. So, I’m so grateful to the guys and Clickout Media, I can’t thank them enough. It goes such a long way.”
Owen Fulda, Head of Press Content at Clickout Media, said: “Rotunda Amateur Boxing Club is synonymous with boxing champions and we are delighted to play a small part in funding more. The donation is the first of a series we plan to make and he [Tony Bellew] suggested the Rotunda as it is a place that is dear to him. It’s helped keep kids off the street and has trained numerous former champions including Bellew himself.
“As an agency, we have worked with numerous boxers who represent brands we work with. We listened to them about causes that are important and they have all said that grassroots sport is the most important, especially given the current climate and rise in cost of living.”
Bellew had a sensational career in the ring, with his last fight ending in defeat to Oleksandr Usyk. The Ukrainian has gone on to achieve greatness in both the cruiserweight and heavyweight divisions including success over Anthony Joshua (twice), Daniel Dubois and now Tyson Fury (twice).
The Bomber gave a special mention to Usyk when speaking about the greatest heavyweight boxers of all time.
Bellew said: “On accolades alone and achievements. He’s right up there (as one of the greatest heavyweights of all time”. You’d have to look at the stats, he’s gone from the cruiserweight division where he’s reigned, gone into everyone’s backyard and beat them up on their own patch. He’s gone to the heavyweight division, which I didn’t think he’d be able to fully do.”
Clickout Media as an agency are firmly committed to sports charitable work having donated in 2024 to Bob Wilson’s Willow Foundation, Haven House Hospice and Matchroom Sports Official charity The Matchroom Charitable Foundation.
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.
Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.
During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.
Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.
The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.
Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”

Stats Perform has been named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, in recognition of the strength, innovation, and global scale of its Bet LiveStreams platform for licensed sportsbook apps, websites and retail betting venues.
Bet LiveStreams, first launched as ‘Watch&Bet’ in 2005, now delivers more than 40,000 exclusive low-latency live events each year, across 15 sports. Football, the world’s largest betting sport, accounts for more than 15,000 matches, with rights including LaLiga, CONCACAF, English Football League and top domestic leagues and cups across Europe, South America, and APAC. Other sports include tennis, basketball, volleyball, darts, badminton, rugby and cricket.
Judges noted that Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams is unique because of its extensive year-long, round-the-clock coverage and high performance. In 2024, the platform securely delivered billions of live video sessions to hundreds of licensed global sportsbooks such as bet365, Betano, Superbet, Betfair, FanDuel and many more.
They also praised its interactive, built-for-betting features like betslip integration, instant highlights, and in-stream contextual stats (also known as Opta Interactive Overlays) that have made the watching and betting experience more engaging for bettors.
“Our focus with Bet LiveStreams has been to make live streams easy to watch and bettable, whoever is playing,” said Mike Perez, Chief Operating Officer at Stats Perform. “The features give bettors more entertainment from every stream, whether it’s a headline fixture like Tottenham v Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, or a six-goal thriller in South America that might otherwise have been overlooked. We’re delighted our efforts have been recognised with this award.”
The judging panel pointed to three standout recent Bet LiveStreams innovations:
- Opta Interactive Overlays: Live game and player stats and odds available directly in-stream, with bets added to the slip in one click
- Instant Highlights: Key moments can be replayed during the game to help bettors quickly catch up on relevant action, such as the moment their bet won, or see action they missed in other live games, with multi-game playlists across competitions
- Live Match Gallery: Easier discovery of concurrent events, helping bettors follow more matches and sports at the same time
Adoption of these features has been fast and operators have reported a 7x increase in interactions per session, longer watch times and more in-play bets placed.
“This award is a reflection of how far streaming can go when it’s built for betting, not just viewing. We’re excited to continue to integrate our Opta data and AI into the experience to make the future of streaming on sportsbooks more engaging, intuitive and bettable,” added Perez.
