21Bet Sponsors World Championship Boxing Contender Charlie Edwards

Online bookmaker 21Bet has confirmed its second major partnership deal in a month by announcing its official sponsorship of IBF flyweight world title contender Charlie Edwards.

Edwards, 23, who turned professional 18 months ago, won the English title in his fifth outing, and will challenge John Riel Casimero for the IBF flyweight title in his ninth professional fight on Saturday.

Richard Hogg, 21Bet CEO, commented: "We're very excited about our new sponsorship deal with Charlie Edwards, which will see 21Bet branding featured on his shorts for the next five bouts. It's great to be supporting British talent and it will be great to support his continued success as the business grows."

21Bet has recently become the the official betting partner of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
