Baltimor, MD (Prosinac 29, 2016) – Jake Smith’s Baltimore Pro Boxing will assist with fundraising efforts for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in association with their “Scary Night at the Fights” card Petak, Siječanj 13 at Michael’s Eighth Ave in Glen Burnie, MD.
A nonprofit headquartered in Rye Brook, NY, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) osnovana je u 1949 and is the world’s largest voluntary health organization dedicated to funding blood cancer research, education and patient services.
Baltimore Boxing is providing a helping hand to Dulaney High School junior Erin Hill’s fundraising efforts for LLS by running a 50/50 raffle and silent auction. Brdo, who lost her uncle Gene from Mantle Cell Lymphoma in 2010, is also a nominee for Student of the Year.
“Jake Smith is an amazing person for supporting our fundraising efforts,” said Hill. “He has a great heart and I know he’s always doing things to help others in association with his boxing events. Jake is a very important member in the Baltimore community.”
Headlining “Scary Night at the Fights” is an eight round super middleweight contest between rugged Baltimorean Jessie “The Beast” Nicklow and unbeaten Virginia native Chauncey “Grimm” Fields.
Nicklow has a solid 25-8-3 zapis s 8 knockouts and is a fan favorite in Maryland. He looks to rebound from recent defeats against world class opposition and has never lost in his home state. With only four fights under his belt, Fields is taking a significant step up in competition. Rather than continue the standard record building process, Fields’ team is confident their fighter has much more to gain by defeating the established Nicklow.
Somebody’s 0 must go in the six round co-feature when super middleweights “Dangerous” Donald Wallace and Tahir Thomas square off. Baltimore’s Wallace is 1-0 with a first round knockout and exceeded expectations during his time in the amateurs. Fighting out of Salisbury, MD, Thomas has a solid 4-0-1 ledger with 3 pobjeda nokautom. U svom najnovijem nastup, Thomas drew with 10-0 Antowyan Aitkens.
Veteran Michael “The Amazing” Gbenga looks for his 22ND victory when he faces an opponent to be named at light heavyweight.
All ticketholders will also have the opportunity to watch the amateur portion of the card including a heavyweight title rematch between Brian “Bam Bam” Haneschlager and Dallas Butts.
Other pro and amateur bouts will be announced shortly.
Ulaznice od $50 are on sale at Baltimoreboxing.com or by calling 410-375-9175.

LAS VEGAS (Studeni 22, 2016) – The “Krug 7, Operation Knockout” amateur mixed-martial-arts and grappling card, presented by Tuff-N-Uff in association with Neon Star Media, će zraka Nedjelja, Studeni 27 (11 poslije podne. I / 8 poslije podne. PT) na CBS Sports Network.
The seventh annual “Operation Knockout,” held this past Nov. 19th na Downtown Las Vegasu Događanja Centar, was created to help Randy Couture’s G.I. Foundation raise funds and awareness for wounded soldiers and their families.
Ova uzbudljiva, unique charity event featured a night of amazing fights and a fabulous silent auction that featured gloves signed by Randy Couture, Luke Rockhold, Miesha Tate a Gray Maynard, tickets to Criss Angel, Rock of Ages a Legends in Concert, and many more items. There was something for everyone with nine amateur MMA fights, four of which were for title belts, and six super-fight grappling bouts featuring Bellator’s Ryan Couture, ex-UFC fighter Ulysses Gomez and current UFC fighter Anthony Birchak, former Bellator fighter and active military, Michael Parker, former Lion Fight fighter Fanny Tommasino, and current Combate Americas fighter and former Tuff-N-Uff fighter, Kyra Batara.
Veteran MMA announcers Sean Wheelock, Joey Varner and living legend Couture called all the action live from ringside.
“Tuff-N-Uff is honored to have a hand in helping to raise funds for and bring awareness to our brave service members who have sacrificed so much for our great country,” Tuff-N-Uff CEO Jeff Meyer rekla. “Any little bit helps and the least we could do was put together a fight card with the Future Stars of MMA, as well as some big names in MMA who participated. We can’t thank everyone enough for helping put this amazing event together for a good cause.”
Xtreme Couture G.I. Zaklada pruža potrebnu podršku i usluge za ranjene vojnike i njihove obitelji, od kojih mnogi vratili s traumatskim amputacijama, strijelne rane, opeklina i eksplozije ozljede. One-hundred percent of the proceeds are given as Operation Knockout continues to build on its efforts to raise more money and help more wounded soldiers and their families. With help of its generous sponsors and donations, “Operation Knock” had raised more than $170,000 going into this year’s event.
“I can’t tell you how thankful I am for the support from Tuff-N-Uf, Downtown Las Vegas Events Center and the D Las Vegas of ‘Round 7, Operation Knockout’ and wounded veterans through xcgif.org,” Couture commented. “We at XCGIF appreciate your help and support of this cause.
“We train our warriors to suppress strong emotional reactions in the face of adversity, to tolerate physical and emotional pain, and overcome the fear of injury and death. The military can’t decrease the intensity of that conditioning without negatively affecting the fighting capability of our military. It is a Catch-22. A chilling truth is service members are, simply put, more capable of killing themselves by sheer consequence of their professional training and we are losing 22 a day. This must change. We need to retrain our warriors on what defines success for them.”
“It’s going to be a great night of fighting and grappling. Thank you all for your contributions.”
