Millions of people tuned in to watch Tyson Fury knockout Dillian Whyte on Saturday, but not too many would have known that a company from Evesham played such a big part in the spectacle.

Ringcraft Boxing has been responsible for organising the biggest boxing matches across the world for over 40 years, having launched in 1979.

The company’s latest venture came this Saturday, when they put together almost every aspect of the Fury Whyte fight at Wembley Stadium, including promotional material, seating, and the ring itself.

Founder, Mike Goodall, said: “If you see a boxing ring on TV, that’s from us.”

Ringcraft Boxing has put together all of Anthony Joshua fights, including his clash with Andy Ruiz in Saudi Arabia.

It was also responsible for the Battle of Britain between Carl Froch and George Groves, and has supplied rings for shows such as Eastenders, Emmerdale, Heartbeat and Coronation Street.

However, Mr Goodall believes last weekend was the biggest one yet.

He added: “Saturday was a particularly big one.

“94,000 at Wembley, they don’t any bigger than that!

“We sent 30 people down to set up on Friday and they had to have it all cleared by 9am on Sunday.

“An event of that size takes an awful lot of planning and organisation.”

All of the equipment Ringcraft Boxing supplies is manufactured in Evesham, with branding and promotional material supplied by sister company, Signs R Us.

However, in the ring it was Fury who delivered the goods, stopping Whyte in the sixth round.

In his first fight on UK soil since August 2018, Fury was treated to a hero’s welcome as he caught Whyte with a vicious uppercut before pushing him to the mat.

Despite the mandatory challenger beating the count, referee Mark Lyson waved off the fight as Whyte stumbled towards the ropes.

A vicious uppercut caught Whyte flush on the chin before he was disdainfully pushed over on to his back, and while the mandatory challenger beat the count, referee Mark Lyson waved off the fight.

Fury treated the crowd to a rendition of Don McLean’s American Pie following his win, proclaiming that “this might be the final curtain for the Gypsy King.”
