Leo High Students Boxing Club Looks to Knockout Kids' Cancer

Chicago - We are one week away from our big St. Baldricks FOX Chicago Schools Challenge shave day at 'The Cell.' With more than 75 schools joining us to help conquer kids' cancer, we've already raised $415,000.
Inside the halls and the ring at Leo High School, kids are putting on the gloves to fight kids' cancer.
Leo High School has been around since 1926, a boys Catholic college prep where young boys grow to be strong, community minded young men.
On Saturday at 3 p.m. at 115 Bourbon Street in Merionnette Park, they are looking to deliver that knock-out punch to kids cancer.
The Leo Boxing Club's motivations are real.
The guys under the leadership of their coach Mike Joyce have been planning for this Saturday night for a long time now, getting in shape and growing their hair.
Coach Joyce is a Leo graduate himself and the son-in-law of Muhammad Ali.
Joyce is as proud as he can be of his guys.
He and friend John O'Sullivan are organizing Saturday's boxing matches.
So the sky is the limit here, when the Leo Lion roars like it will Saturday when that bell rings, good things happen.
As the champ himself once said, "it's lack of faith that makes people afraid of meeting challenges, and I believed in myself."
These kids and their coach believe as well.

Fight for the Cure With the Boxers of St. Baldrick's - Sat. 3-7 PM at Bourbon Street
Eric Owens vs. Logan Plantz SuperHeavyweights -Really?
These two dreadnaughts will touch gloves and each other. My pal Eric Owens will graduate this Mother's Day from Leo High School. Big E is off to college in the fall well-armed with the Leo Spirit of Giving. Our guys from Mike Joyce's Leo Boxing Club will square off with Celtic Boxers, Marty McGarry's Boxers and many, many other great amateur and pro talents all on the same card to knock-out cancer.
Come on out Saturday for a full afternoon of sport, fellowship, food and fun at the most generous venue on the south side 115 Bourbon Street. There is not a weekend goes by, that 115 Bourbon Street does not help sick kids, suffering families and causes that really matter.
