BackgammonMasters.com buys boxer's shorts
(PRESS RELEASE) -- BackgammonMasters.com has purchased heavyweight boxer Roman Greenberg's shorts for $100,000 and will auction them for charity. The $100K will give the young fighter a shot at the world championship, and proceeds from the auction of the boxer's shorts will be donated to groups assisting Arab and Jewish youth in distress.
The $100,000 paid for the shorts will support Greenberg's battle to become one of the World Boxing Organization's (WBO) top fighters this year. Greenberg beat veterans Kendrick Releford, Julius Francis, Steve Pannell and in his last bout won against American Michael Simms at the world famous Madison Square Garden in NYC. Roman currently resides in the UK where he trains with Jim Evans.
Greenberg was recently quoted as saying: "It makes no difference what people say about me, I am undefeated. I am winning my fights and will continue to win with my eyes on the world championship."
BackgammonMasters will auction off Greenberg's boxing shorts after the next fight, with bids starting at $100,000. The money raised by the auction will be donated to a charity for youth in distress from Arab and Jewish communities. BackgammonMasters.com promotes peace and understanding through competitive games such as backgammon (or Tawula as it's called in Arabic). They believe strongly in the endorsement of coexistence between Arabs and Jews.
Roman Greenberg is himself a Russian-born Jew and, at age 24, he's one of the youngest heavyweight contenders with a real shot at the WBO heavyweight championship. He is currently undefeated with a record of 25-0 (17 KO's).
