All proceeds from this event, which will feature many luminaries in attendance from the world of boxing, will go towards the continuing medical care of both champions, who were seriously injured in their final bouts.

Tickets, priced at $100 per plate, are available by calling Ear Wax Records at 815-233-5460. Tickets may also be purchased at the door, but to ensure premium seating, reservations are encouraged.

Gerald McClellan, the former middleweight champion of the world, has required 24 hour a day care since his tragic bout with Nigel Benn in 1995.

The Charity dinner is being held three days before the eighth anniversary of the fight, which took place in London, England.

Greg Page, a former world heavyweight champion , also requires extensive medical rehabilitation stemming from injuries suffered in a 2001 bout with Dale Crowe.

Boxing reform is a key theme of this charity event, and the cases of McClellan and Page clearly demonstrate the need for such changes in the industry. Please support this worthwhile cause with your attendance on February 22.
