Heavyweight Factory Team, Including Newest Signee Ivan Dychko, Provide Thousands of Meals to Miami Victims of Hurricane Irma

Пікір қалдыру
This past weekend in Miami, Heavyweight Factory Gym Founder, Kris Lawrence, and a group of their prominent fighters, which included recently signed two-time Olympic Super Heavyweight Bronze Medallist Ivan Dychko, opened their hearts to the victims of Hurricane Irma by holding a free barbecue.
Over two 10-hour shifts сенбіде мен Жексенбі, the group cooked and served over 2500 pieces of chicken, 1000 sausages, 800 racks of ribs, as well as baked beans and potato salad, to a hungry community still feeling the effects of the devastating hurricane.
Standing 6′ 9″ tall, Kazakhstan’s Dychko was an imposing sight at first, but quickly warmed the hearts of locals with his warm smile and tireless efforts to help. Despite the oppressive heat, he and former heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe, who also volunteered his time, posed for hundreds of pictures between servings.
“Ivan was amazing,” said Heavyweight Factory Director of Boxing, Henry Rivalta. “He hung in there while the sun was brutal. His desire to stay with us and make sure the neighborhood was fed was just awesome.”

Well-known for being very giving to the needy, Lawrence is active with several charities and, every Christmas, loads a 40-foot container with toys and distributes them to children on the streets of his native Liberty City.

“Giving back to the community gave our team a chance to join together and provide nice warm meals, which have been hard to find, due to the circumstances of Hurricane Irma,” continued Rivalta.
Dychko, a heavily decorated amateur, was also a two-time world amateur championships silver medallist. He and trainer Derek Santos are hard at work at the Heavyweight Factory for his highly anticipated professional debut on Қыркүйек 28 in Kentucky.

The visit takes place at the main campus, бойынша орналасқан 1275 York Avenue in New York, NY.

Two days later, the pair heads to St. Albans Community Living Center in Queens, NY. Run by the Veterans Affairs New York Harbor Healthcare System (VA NYHHS), Санкт-. Albans Community Living Center has 386 beds and provides extended care, primary care and housing for homeless veterans. The center also offers counseling and training for patients looking to return to independent living.

«I have differing emotions here,«Melson деді, who hopes to unseat Rep. Dan Donovan in the 2018 election. “My inner child is extremely excited because I remember the first fight I watched was Evander Holyfield against Riddick Bowe. My father would talk about Evander and his warrior heart every time he brought up boxing, so he became my first favorite fighter.

Never in a million years did I think I’d be doing this with somebody like Evander. I sincerely thank him for going with me to visit Sloan Kettering and my fellow Veterans that served in our nation’s armed forces but are now homeless. Between my parents, two siblings and myself, we have about 65 years of military service. Helping the military is extremely important for me and I’m also on the Advisory Board for the non-profit Stop Soldier Suicide.

For the Sloan Kettering visit, I’ve spent the past week trying to emotionally prepare to see innocent children suffering from cancer. These children are the truest of warriors with more bravery than anybody. They’ll be my greatest teachers сейсенбіде. Children are the key to our future and veterans that represented this great country will forever have my gratitude.”

It’s all about helping the community. There’s not much opportunity out here so we have to give the kids additional chances to succeed.”

Бокстың элитасы Лас-Вегас жолағына түсіп жатқанда, Бокстың Raging Babes тағы да желіге жиналады, түскі ас үстінде күлу және байланыс.

Іс-шара өсіп келеді, астам 50 соңғы асқа баратын әйелдер “Нью Йорк, Нью Йорк,” жылы 2016, және Raging Babe-дің негізін қалаушы Мишель Розадо қыркүйек айының кешкі асына толық үй күтеді. Розадо тұрақтады “Жарқырау” іс-шара тақырыбы үшін. “Бокс әйелдеріне қарағанда кім жарқырайды,” - деді Розадо. “Бұл іс-шара бір дастархан басында отырған бір топ әйелден гөрі көбірек болды. Тәжірибе, бұл іс-шараларда таланттар мен жүректердің ауыруы мен жеңістер туралы әңгімелер айтылады. Біздің спорттың осы түрін дамыту үшін аянбай еңбек етіп жүрген әйелдерге олар үлкен мән берді.”

Жарқыраған жарқындық Розадоның жүрегіне жақын пайда әкеледі – боксшы Причард Колонның қалпына келуі. “Причард өзінің сауығып кетуінде үлкен жетістіктерге жетті, бірақ іс жүзінде оған қажет терапия қалады, медициналық шығындар, оның отбасына қажет қолдау, бітпейді. Оның отбасы оның жақсаруына көмектесу үшін бәрін құрбан етті, және ол бізді рингте күту үшін бәрін құрбан етті.” Қызғылт, бокс менеджері және кәсіпкер Ливви Каннингэммен бірге, Facebook тобын құрды, “Дұға ет 4 Prichard,” Бұл Колондар отбасы үшін бүкіл әлемдегі бокс жанкүйерлерінің хабарламалары арқылы жігер мен қолдау таба алатын орын болды. Shine Bright-тен түскен қаражаттың пайызы Prichard Colon қорына пайда әкеледі, бұл Колонды қалпына келтіру үшін маңызды ай сайынғы сақтандыру сыйлықақыларын қаржыландырады.
