Tonight my son, Jamie, is fighting in a white collar boxing match. This is where he fights a semi professional boxer to raise money for charity. He is not a boxer, he works as an estate manager for a local stately home. He has been training for a few months but is not confident that he’ll win but says it will be worth it to raise money for cancer research, he’s already got over £700.00 and hopes to add to that when he’s finished. He’s nearly 40 and not particularly big or muscular but I know he will give it his best. I’m very proud of him, although I couldn’t go and watch, I couldn’t bear to see him getting hurt, he’s my youngest and still my little boy ( although he wouldn’t thank me for saying that ! ) I’ll let you know how he gets on.

They are courageous these semi amateur young men, like your son & my nephew! He has a few weeks ago took on for the second (a rematch) time another young boxer (my nephew’s 3rd match) & won! He lost the 1st, won his 2nd, to a different opponent & now his 3rd. We are all on tenterhooks but very proud at the discipline in training and the matches are for charity! In between these boxing matches he has done other activities raising more for other good causes that are cancer related!

Well done to all the young men, winners or losers for what is in their hearts!!

I am not so up on boxing and I am a but sceptical about the physical hurting but I gather that it is good exercise and discipline for these young men and let's not forget the ladies! All the better if they raise money for charity. Well done
