The_budweiser Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Baltimore, MD (January 18, 2012) – Jake “The Snake” Smith of Baltimore Boxing Promotions and Ballroom Boxing announced that they’ll give back to the community by donating more than 100 tickets to wounded warriors and amateur fighters for the January 26 Baltimore vs Navy card at Michael’s Eighth Avenue. The amateur boxers receiving the tickets are all fighting on the Baltimore vs Navy card and keep 100% of the money generated by ticket sales, while each of the wounded warriors is being brought from Walter Reid Hospital to Michael’s Eighth Avenue by a special bus funded by the promoters. “The most exciting part of the evening for me is to see the looks on wounded warriors’ faces,” said Ballroom Boxing CEO Scott Wagner, who promoted more than 70 shows in Maryland. "They’re honored by fans and love the sport. The response they get from the crowd and give to the fighters is great.” Smith, who like Wagner hosted various fight cards in the Old Line State, is happy that he’s able to help make a difference.

Kudos to them for doing this for the wounded soliders from Walter Reid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
