Story

I’ll be taking part in a white collar charity boxing event on the 23rd March 2019 for my dad who sadly passed away in March last year from battling cancer.  My dad who also took part in the white collar boxing event himself  back in 2015 before he was diagnosed with cancer, raising £4000 thousand pound for cancer research UK with one of his close friend who also took part in the boxing event. A sport neither of them had ever taken part in before.

Now I’m finally in the middle of an intense training course as I prepare myself to step in the ring to make my dad proud and to raise as much money as I can for cancer research UK.

I’ll be training in the same boots and gloves my dad trained with back in 2015. 

“I’ll do this & I’ll do this for my dad” - Stephen O’connor
