From WBC President Dr. José Sulaimán:
On September 29, 2012, the sport of boxing will make historical strides as we celebrate the inauguration of a new pension fund in support of our boxing heroes! While providing knockouts in the ring, many of our favorite fighters have fallen to hard times, suffering numerous injuries and living in devastating conditions. For years, this has been a major concern for those of us who love the sport, and it is with jubilation that I tell you that the day has come where we can begin to help those boxers in need.
I take this opportunity to thank the following World Boxing Legends for their participation: Ray Leonard, Thomas Hearns, Mike Tyson, Julio Cesar Chavez, Ken Norton, George Foreman, Larry Holmes, Lennox Lewis, Roberto Duran, Oscar De La Hoya, Jeff Fenech and Azumah Nelson.
In order for “A Legendary Evening” to be a success, we need your help. Jean-Claude Biver and Jose Sulaiman personally wish to invite you to be a part of this memorable event taking place on September 29, 2012 at the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
It is on this night that we will auction these 12 unique pieces- the proceeds of which will go to the World Boxing Council in the presence of the legends themselves!
The cost to attend and be part of this distinctive moment in history is $1000 per person which will go to support the success of the pension fund. In addition, we have negotiated special rates with the Bellagio Hotel to make this a great experience for you.
