Official Fight To End Cancer Ring Announcer, Barry ‘Bad Boy’ Pletch will now also be the voice of the Friday Night Fights ‘To End Cancer’ on November 24.
“Cancer isn’t a stranger to anyone. We’ve all been saddened by this disease. I lost my grandmother when I was young and still miss her to this day. My uncle passed away and it was shocking to the whole family how fragile life really is. My father-in-law was the quirkiest, wisest, kindest man I have ever met and it was heartbreaking to witness him lose his battle to cancer. Young moms in my neighbourhood have recently passed away from this horrible disease causing everyone to ask – “Why her?
In spite of the surrounding reality – I truly believe in the FTEC mission. Last year at FTEC, it was announced that the donations from FTEC have gone directly to research at Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation in the field of immunology. It was revealed to every one in the room the breakthroughs that are happening! That night I went home and bawled my eyes out from pure pride that FTEC is TRULY making a difference. I wholeheartedly believe we WILL conquer cancer in our lifetime.
Every year I am drawn by the personalities of the fighters – their passion, their stories, their list of people they are fighting for and their dedication to the FTEC mission. The night will be filled with pure adrenaline in the ring and pure love and positive energy in the entire venue. It’s magical. The energy is powerful. Something everyone needs to experience so get your tickets now!!”

The fight card will feature some of Canada’s best boxers holding provincial and national titles. These fighters may be matched up to put on the ‘fight of the night’, but they are all fighting for one cause! Our Co-Main and Main Event fights will feature Mark Smither and Kassandra O’Reilly – they both fought on the inaugural Fight To End Cancer card in 2012. We will be starting the show off with a couple of novice boxers who are up and coming!
