888poker is sponsoring the IBF Super Middleweight world title fight between English challenger Carl Froch and current world champ Lucian Bute from Romania.

The company is also throwing its weight behind Froch by sponsoring him for the May 26 fight in Nottingham, England as well and the 34-year-old said,“I’m delighted to be representing 888poker. They have supported a lot of great boxing shows this season and I hope to bring the boxing year to a close with a great win over Bute.

“I’m a keen poker player and I take my game pretty seriously, so I’m looking forward to playing the fans online at 888poker.com and maybe Shane Warne and I can have a little bit of an Ashes game too!”

The company recently sponsored mixed martial artist Georges St-Pierre.
