Paul Shamplina’s high profile charity boxing event, ‘Rumble with the Agents’, is celebrating its 10th anniversary with two events in 2025. 

One in London on June 19 and for the first time there’s to be a second event, in Newcastle on December 4.

Since its inception, the Rumble has grown into a highly anticipated fixture in the property industry calendar, bringing together professionals for a night of white-collar boxing, networking, and fundraising. 

Over the past decade, the event has raised more than £170,000 for various charities, and this year’s anniversary edition aims to make an even greater impact.

The London event, with Total Property as the main sponsor, will raise funds for Centre Point, a charity dedicated to supporting homeless young people. The Newcastle event will support local charity Legends on The Bench, founded by Spurs legend Micky Hazard to tackle mental health issues and prevent suicides through community support.

Paul Shamplina, founder of ‘Rumble with the Agents’, says: “I cannot believe we have reached our 10-year anniversary of putting on ‘Rumble with the Agents’. What started as a simple idea combining my two passions, boxing and property, has grown into a staple event in the industry, raising an incredible amount for charities in need. 

“Over the years, we have supported eight charities and built an event that blends fun, competition, and an amazing atmosphere. This year, we’re going bigger than ever – not only returning to London but also expanding to Newcastle to engage the property community up there.”

As in previous years, both events will feature a three-course meal, live boxing matches, auctions, raffles, and an electric post-event celebration. The goal for this milestone edition is to surpass the £200,000 fundraising mark, continuing to make a lasting difference for charities that rely on grassroots support.

‘Rumble with the Agents’ is now actively recruiting male and female participants from the property industry to step into the ring for both of these special anniversary events. 

Volunteers will undergo a structured training programme, with sessions held at a local gym in Bushey for the London event and a dedicated Newcastle gym for the December event. 

Each bout will consist of three two-minute rounds of white-collar boxing, with 300 property professionals expected to attend each event.
