A BIT ABOUT US

& WHY WE STARTED THIS

You may be wondering, who are the people in the photo and why should I care?

The people in that photo happen to be doing something extraordinary and if we do not tell you about it, you may never know…

We are a group of people who, with the help of boxing, have overcome life’s adversities. We are lovers of the sport and its potential for a greater purpose.

The concept of helping yourself while helping others is something unique and can be realized in the form of charitable boxing. The idea is to enter a boxing training camp, raise money while training and in a grand finale, go toe to toe with your competitor.
