“The most recent ten have involved the Rotary club. During this time, well over £60,000 has been raised shared equally between the boxing club and Rotary.
“It is hoped that this year the figure will again be in the region of £6,000.”
Brian Stemp, of the Rotary club, has organised the bout on its behalf since 2002.
