Bet9ja, Nigeria’s leading sportsbook, powered by Logifuture, has announced a partnership with heavyweight boxing sensation, Moses Itauma.
Itauma, a 20-year-old British fighter of Nigerian descent, has rapidly become one of boxing’s most compelling figures, with an unbeaten professional record, stopping 10 of his 12 opponents since turning professional in 2023.
This sponsorship deal comes as Itauma prepares for the biggest fight of his career, against fellow Briton Dillian Whyte in a headline bout in Saudi Arabia on Saturday August 16th.
Bet9ja’s logo will be prominently displayed on Itauma’s training gear, as well as his ringside team’s clothing during fights. He is also contributing to a range of digital content that fans will enjoy via Bet9ja’s social channels.
For Bet9ja, this partnership reflects a deep commitment to supporting Nigerian sporting excellence. As Nigeria’s No.1 sportsbook, Bet9ja, with Logifuture’s cutting-edge technology and marketing power behind it, continues to push boundaries.
Earlier this year, Bet9ja announced its renewed support for Nigeria national football team’s Let’s Do It Again campaign in the build up to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
Bet9ja is powered by Logifuture, with iGaming products including Simulate and Zoom Soccer; flagship virtual sports titles that are transforming the way sports fans engage with their favourite sports, while providing increased revenues and consistent margins for operators.
Tom Beck, Head of Content & Social Media at Logifuture, says: “Moses Itauma is one of the most exciting young talents in global boxing, and has spoken about the strength he draws from his Nigerian roots, making him a natural fit for Bet9ja. For fans, he represents something special; a proud symbol of Nigerian toughness, talent and ambition on the global stage.
“We are looking forward to helping to share his journey with fans by providing exclusive access and behind-the-scenes content as he continues to build his reputation as one of the most explosive young fighters on the planet.”
Moses Itauma adds: “I am delighted to be working with Bet9ja as I prepare for the biggest fight of my career so far. My Nigerian heritage and family have always been a source of pride, and this partnership is a powerful connection to my roots.
“I look forward to bringing my Championship belts back to my father’s homeland.”
Ayo Ojuroye, CEO of Bet9ja, concludes: “Moses embodies the spirit of resilience, power and relentless pursuit of greatness that we champion.
“His Nigerian roots and global ambition make him a perfect fit for Bet9ja’s vision of empowering champions and delivering world-class player experiences. Partnering with Logifuture, we continue to elevate the standards of engagement in Nigerian sports.”
