FFL14flyerThe greatest rivalry in Public Safety boxing returns to the Quiet Cannon, Friday November 14, 2014 for the Fight for Life charity boxing event. The Fight for Life is a unique event that features a highly competitive, yet friendly rivalry between boxers from the Los Angeles Police Dept. and the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Dept. to raise money for the City of Hope Children’s Hospital. These selfless fighters understand the bigger picture, which is helping others, and the residents of Los Angeles have taken notice as the event has continually grown in popularity. The Los Angeles Police Department and Sheriff’s Department have been keeping this tradition going for years  and unlike their professional counterparts, they fight for a selfless cause—charity. Over the years the rivalry has been a balanced one with both teams winning their fair share of fights. Currently, the LASD team has the stronger team, but not long ago it was LAPD that was the powerhouse amid the competition. The intensity of the rivalry varies from a friendly competition to a more serious one when top level fighters compete.  The spirit of competition far exceeds any expectation one could have for such a noble cause. The Fight for Life event is really something to watch and Friday night will be nothing short of another exciting night of public safety boxing action featuring top flight talent.
