The event, organised by local man George Courtney, in conjunction with Braid Amateur Boxing Club, saw boxers with no previous experience train for several weeks before taking to the ring for the charity fund-raiser.

A huge crowd of supporters at the Tullyglass House Hotel ensured a successful evening for the charity that will benefit, the Northern Ireland Hospice.
