Boxing Smoker raises $480,000 for Operation Breakthrough |
||
The Hong Kong Police Boxing Club in tandem with the British Chamber of Commerce recently held their annual boxing smoker to raise money for Operation Breakthrough. The event, now in its 4th year, goes from strength to strength and this year saw a record attendance of over 500. As always, the fight card promised an exciting mix of police and breakthrough boxers taking on opponents from Thailand, New Zealand, Russia and Italy, with the police/breakthrough combination winning five of the six fights and firmly establishing themselves as one of the top clubs in Hong Kong. The charity raised a total of $480,000 for Operation Breakthrough, and the money will be put to good use to support over 400 youths involved in eight different sports.
