Why IVB Exists: Rebuilding Boxing’s Connection to Fans and Fighters
Somewhere along the way, boxing lost touch with its people. The lights got brighter, the stages got bigger, and the sport that once belonged to local gyms and working-class communities became distant—reserved for high pay-per-view and celebrity cards. But boxing was never meant to be exclusive. It was meant to be electric, communal, and alive.
That’s why iVisit Boxing (IVB) exists.
We were built to reconnect boxing to the people who made it matter—the fans who fill the seats, the fighters who grind day in and day out, and the cities that give the sport its soul. IVB is rewriting the playbook by creating a movement that keeps boxing where it belongs: in communities, cities, and with the people.
🧠 The Disconnect: When Boxing Moved Away From the Fans
Boxing used to be the people's sport—unfiltered, up close, and real. From smoky halls in Liverpool to youth clubs in Brooklyn, fans were once part of every jab, every victory. But as the industry evolved, the human element got lost in the shuffle. Big stages replaced small gyms, and broadcast deals disconnected the sport from its foundation.
At IVB, we saw that shift not as a failure of boxing, but as a failure of connection. We knew boxing didn’t need to change—it just needed to come home.
🥊 Bringing Boxing Back to the People
Everything IVB does is guided by one mantra: Bringing Boxing Back to the People.
Our mission is rooted in building fight nights that belong to fans and fighters. From ticket pricing to venue selection, we prioritize accessibility and authenticity. Whether it's a packed house in Liverpool or a street-level stage in Detroit, we make sure boxing stays close to the community.
We bring the cameras, the lights, and the infrastructure—but the energy? That comes from the city itself.
🏆 The IVB Model: Local Energy, Global Platform
IVB was never meant to be centralized. Our platform is designed to let each host city shine.
We're active in:
Las Vegas
San Francisco
New York
Detroit
Los Angeles
London
Cardiff
Liverpool
Dublin
These cities aren’t just venues. They're stories, cultures, and communities with decades of fight history and thousands of fans waiting to cheer on their own.
And while the fights happen in-city, our digital broadcast and media arm takes that moment worldwide—giving local fighters a global spotlight, and fans across borders something to believe in.
🤝 Closing the Gap Between Fighters and Fans
We believe boxing is at its best when fans feel connected to fighters.
At IVB, fans don’t just watch—they belong. Our events are built to let fans get up close through:
Open gym access
Fighter meet-and-greets
Behind-the-scenes content
Community events in fight week
And when the bell rings? They’re not just cheering for a name. They’re cheering for someone they know—someone from their block, their school, their city.
🙏 Supporting Fighters Beyond the Bell
Fighters give everything in the ring. We believe they deserve support outside of it, too.
That’s why IVB is committed to:
Sponsoring amateur fighters
Creating career development pipelines
Investing in mental and physical wellness
Opening doors for partnerships and endorsements
One example is Blake Binskin, who recently signed his professional contract after a long journey through the amateur ranks. Supported by IVB, trained by Mario Michael and managed by Martin Bowers of the legendary Peacock Gym, Blake’s rise is proof of what happens when the right system meets the right fighter.
🏋️ Partnering With Community Builders
We know we can't rebuild boxing alone. That’s why we work with those already doing the work.
Our partnership with MCL Boxing Academy in Wales is rooted in mentorship and access. Together, we're creating better training conditions, more exposure for local talent, and direct pipelines to IVB events.
We're also proud to support FDNY and NYPD Boxing Clubs, contributing to initiatives like the annual "Thrilla in Camilla" charity event, raising money for the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Because whether you wear gloves in the ring or boots on the ground, service to the community matters.
🚌 The IVB Experience: More Than a Fight Night
Every IVB event is an experience.
From the moment fans walk through the gates, they get:
Music, storytelling, and live entertainment
Fighter documentaries and video content
Food, community zones, and sponsor activations
It’s not just about the main event. It’s about celebrating the culture of boxing in each city—giving fans something that feels personal, not packaged.

We’re here because boxing deserves better.
Better access. Better energy. Better connection between fighters and fans. Better stories. Better nights.
IVB is here to make boxing feel like home again—in every city, for every fan, and with every fighter who steps into the ring.
