Top Rank, the worldwide leader in boxing promotion, is pleased to announce a multi-year, first-of-its-kind partnership with combat sports apparel and equipment industry giant Venum.
This co-branded collection includes a full suite of apparel — debuting in Spring 2024 and available at www.venum.com — and will feature men’s tracksuits, boxing shorts, performance shirts, and boxing footwear. A specially branded women’s line is in development and will be unveiled at a later date.
“Venum has always been committed to partnering with those who serve as role models,” said Franck Dupuis, Venum’s Founder & CEO. “Venum entered the boxing market with the desire to bring athletes the very best. This collaboration sends a clear message that we want to put boxers in the best possible position, just as Top Rank has done for more than 50 years.”
“Venum has taken the combat sports world by storm with their forward-thinking, innovative products, and we are thrilled to be partnering with one of the industry’s true visionaries,” said Brian Kelly, Top Rank’s Chief Revenue Officer.
In addition to the soon-to-be unveiled apparel line, Venum is now the official corporate sponsor of the Top Rank Gym, Las Vegas’ home of champions. Located less than two miles from The Strip, the Top Rank Gym has specially branded Venum equipment, from the heavy bags to the ring aprons. The gym is a go-to destination for fighters and has served as the training home for dozens of fistic luminaries, including WBC heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury, lightweight world champion Devin “The Dream” Haney, and living legends Oscar De La Hoya and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
