Long Island Fight for Charity, the nation's only all-volunteer charity boxing event
Austin “The Cell King” Fierstadt, the owner of Fuel Your Body Café in Hicksville, has been selected to be a boxer for the 14th Long Island Fight for Charity, the nation’s only all-volunteer charity boxing event. The Main Event which will be held in November at the Long Island Hilton in Melville is expected to attract more than 1,200 people and raise more than $200,000 for local not-for-profit organizations including Long Island Community Chest, The Genesis School and National Foundation for Human Potential.
A resident of Woodbury, Austin chose “The Cell King” as his ring name. He will be among Long Island’s brightest, toughest and bravest business professionals who will step in the boxing ring this November. The card for the Main Event will include up to 10 bouts, pitting local business professionals against each other for charity.
“Sandy Kane, a Fight for Charity board member and founder of Cruizin’ For A Cure Car Show, told me about the opportunity to become a charity boxer. I hope to do my part in raising funds to support local charities here on Long island. Training and fighting in the Main Event will be a winning experience for me,” said Austin.
