Macao Boxing House held its 4th white-collar charity boxing event on Saturday night, pitting pugilists from Macau, Guangdong and Hong Kong in a seven-bout contest that had amateurs from all walks of life fighting each other after intensive training especially for the night. The bout between teacher Long Chien Hou and casino worker Ivan Lou Pak Tou ended the evening with the crowd whistling and cheering as the two pummelled each other at top speed.
All takings totalling about 16,000 patacas from the event will be donated to Special Olympics Macau.
The Macau Post Daily went down to Macao Boxing House at Fat Lei Industrial Building in Areia Preta on Saturday to watch the fights.
