Pèpe Gets Beat Up for Charity!
Pèpe at a recent “Friday Night Fight” at the Playboy Mansion, Beverly Hills
Hello Friends,
On April 11, Garcia Boxing hosted its second annual “Celebrity Boxing for Charity” at the Hyatt Regency in Monterey, benefiting the Kinship Center of Salinas.
Famed boxing trainer Max Garcia asked if I would jump into the ring and be one of the celebrity boxers at his fundraiser. Before I had time to think I had said yes, and then wondered what I just got my self into! But Max agreed to train me at his gym in Salinas and I’m happy to report I am actually beginning to get into shape and learn a little about boxing. To be honest, it is the hardest sport that I’ve ever attempted.
The Kinship Center is a non-profit adoptive care agency that helps place abused or abandoned children into permanent families.
A highlight of the event will be a bout between former NFL star Dana Stubblefield vs. former two-time world heavyweight champion Riddick Bowe, while I will be fighting against Jesus “Chuy” Rodriguez (19-3).
Please consider joining us to help raise funds for the Kinship Center and come watch me get beat up for charity!
Please enjoy my newsletter and best regards to all.
Ci vediamo a presto (I hope to see you soon),
Rich Pèpe
