The following announcement was provided by Haymakers for Hope:
This October, Watertown resident, Sylvia Khalarian, will be fighting for a cure, literally, in the annual Haymakers for Hope Belles of the Brawl charity boxing event.
On Thursday, October 9th at the well-known MGM Music Hall at Fenway, Khalarian along with 25 other brave fighters residing in the New England area will be stepping into the ring at this year’s event to combat cancer and raise money for their main beneficiary, The Dana Farber Cancer Institute.
Since having their first event in 2011, Haymakers for Hope has raised over $35 million for cancer research, awareness, survivorship, and care. Haymakers is now accepting registrations from everyday professionals in the Greater Boston area who have no prior boxing experience and are eager to learn the art of boxing. Participants will have the chance to train at local partner gyms over the course of four months, culminating in a live fight night at the state-of-the-art MGM Music Hall, performing in front of a sold-out crowd and fighting for a cure.
