Boxing matchups disclosed for Long Island Fight for Charity
Organizers of the Long Island Fight for Charity are set to announce boxing matchups tonight at the Mansion at Oyster Bay in Woodbury in advance of next month’s scheduled charity fight.
More than 20 volunteer fighters from across Long Island, including business owners and executives, have signed up to go toe-to-toe with each other in November for the 15th annual event. The fighters, with ring names like Tara “The Hit Girl” Del Bianco, Chris “The Undertaker” Tombline, and Michael “The Number Cruncher” Holmstrom, come from a wide array of industries and jobs.
The annual charity fight has donated more than $1.1 million to Long Island charities since its launch. This year’s main event, scheduled for November 19 at the Hilton Long Island in Melville, is expected to generate $100,000 to $200,000, organizers said.
Tickets for next month’s fight range from $135 to $250 per person and can be purchased at lifightforcharity.org or for more information call 877-240-7821.
