(AUG 24) As we
reported last week, this year the sport of women's boxing is set
to see one of the biggest women's boxing fights in the history
of the sport when Anne Sophie Mathis of France, fights Holly
Holm on December 2, 2011. Mathis and Holm
are going to fight for the WBAN Independent world welterweight
title and a federation belt.
WBAN has made a decision that anytime our WBAN belt (no
sanctioning fee fight) goes on any world title bout between the
top women in the sport---we will make a donation to the
Retired Boxers Foundation, a non-profit organization who is in
great need of help from the boxing community so they can
continue there mission to help retired boxers.
WBAN has also
decided to have a "First-Time" Fundraiser beginning today,
to raised money for the retired boxers, along with our donation
we will have the additional funds to add that will go to this
organization.
Our fundraiser
will be a sale of collected memorabilia unique items that WBAN
has accumulated throughout the 13 years of being on the net and
covering fights. WBAN will have these items donated from
our organization for the Fundraiser. We will use our
discretion to end the Fundraiser depending on participation of
the public.
ALL PROCEEDS (100%) from the sale of the boxing memorabilia
items that will be listing on WBAN will go to the Retired Boxers
Foundation.

I hope that the boxing community would like to purchase some of
the items that we have up for grabs, and know that their
purchase will go be going to one of the most important causes
RELATED to the sport then any other cause related to this
sport-----and that is the long and forgotten retired boxers.
