A world champion boxing trainer and manager who was jailed for his part in a conspiracy to supply cocaine has been ordered to repay £82,000.
Andrew Bulcroft, known as Stefy Bull, benefitted to the sum of £189,437, a confiscation hearing at Sheffield Crown Court was told.
Bulcroft was jailed for 10 years in September after he was found guilty of using the Encrochat encrypted phone network to buy the drugs wholesale before selling them in South Yorkshire.
The 48-year-old from Doncaster, who appeared in court via video link from HMP Wealstun, a Category C prison in West Yorkshire, was told he must repay the sum within three months or face a further two years in jail.
The court heard Bulcroft, a former professional fighter turned trainer, manager and promoter who had guided the careers of world champions, had £82,414 available to pay.
His Honour Judge Anthony Dunne ordered him to pay all of that sum, a £104,023 shortfall from his profits from drug dealing.
A confiscation hearing for his co-defendant, Benjamin Williams, was rescheduled for 25 September after the court was told matters concerning him "remain in dispute".
Williams, 42, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply cocaine, possessing cocaine with intent to supply, possessing cannabis with intent to supply and possessing criminal property.
He was jailed for eight-and-a-half years in September.
Prosecutor Sam Ponniah said the case was a "lifestyle" one in which the defendants "benefitted from general criminality".
The judge who jailed Bulcroft said he had "retailed" about 5kg of the drug, "no doubt to significant financial profit".
At his trial in February 2025, jurors were told how he used the pseudonym "Yummycub" to buy "significant amounts" of cocaine around the time of the coronavirus pandemic.
Bulcroft, formerly of of Crane Moore Close in Harlington, initially denied the charge against him, but admitted to his role in the conspiracy ahead of his sentencing after a jury delivered a unanimously guilty verdict following a four-day trial.
Sentencing him, Judge Peter Hampton told Bulcroft: "The reality is you chanced your arm at trial, just as you chanced your arm at offending."
He was told he would serve up to 40% of his sentence in jail.
Bullcroft's former stable included champions at British, European and world level.
He is perhaps best known for guiding the career of three-weight world champion Terri Harper, as well as several other Doncaster-based fighters who have competed at international level.
They include Jamie McDonnell, Maxi Hughes and Jason Cunningham.
