<p>Follow my training diary:&nbsp;<a href="http://sicoyle-thelatinsnake.blogspot.com/">http://sicoyle-thelatinsnake.blogspot.com/</a></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Looking at me you would think butter wouldn't melt.&nbsp;</p> <p>Quiet, mysterious and calm.&nbsp;</p> <p>But inside is a beast. A beast which needs to be uncaged and let into the ring for one night only.&nbsp;</p> <p>To battle toe to toe on the canvas for six brutal minutes of unflappable, unmissable, unwatchable (if your a relative) entertainment.&nbsp;</p> <p>That's right I am boxing. Me. Boxing.&nbsp;</p> <p>The weights are out, the protein is being consumed and the training montage begun.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have already started training twice a week to learn how to box, weave, dodge and jap.</p> <p>But I still need your help.&nbsp;</p> <p>As long as my amount raised stays at &pound;0 I can still back out as I am a massive wimp.&nbsp;</p> <p>But if you back me I shall fight. I must fight. I will need to fight! And I shall win!</p> <p>The fight itself takes place on Saturday June 11 at Milnrow Soccer Village. I will be one of 30 or so boxers fighting on the night.&nbsp;</p> <p>The white collar event itself is raising money for Springhill Hospice in Rochdale which is a fantastic charity.&nbsp;</p> <p>Personally I wish to raise money for The Stroke Association, a fantastic charity which needs more and more funding, in memory of my Nanek Syl who I am sure would have given me some tips.&nbsp;</p> <p>Give generously, give me lots of abuse and support me on the night. I am going to need all the help I can get.&nbsp;</p> <p>ta ra</p>
