Liverpool places first, with 3,426 online searches per 100,000 people per month- a total of 16,600 per month. 

Whilst Preston places second with 2,676 searches per 100,000 people.

The research by betting sites comparison site findbettingsites.co.uk analysed 60 major UK cities based on the number of times each city Google’s search terms related to an interest in boxing. 

Twenty-four relevant search terms were used in the study, such as “boxing”, “boxing news” “boxing classes near me”, “boxing schedule”, “train for a boxing match” and “jake paul vs tommy fury”. 

The number of searches for each term was then added up to give a total of searches for each city. This was then compared to the population to calculate how many searches per 100,000 people.
