FDNY Boxing Team supports Merit Matters














We are happy to announce that the FDNY Boxing Team officially supports the goals of Merit Matters. Our thanks go out to President Bob McGuire and the team.

If you step into a boxing ring without strength, ability, preparation and commitment you stand to get yourself very badly hurt. If you step onto the fireground without these you stand to get yourself, your fellow firefighters and the citizens you are supposed to be protecting very badly hurt- or killed. This would seem to be common sense but as we have seen common sense isn't common or, what is worse, it is ignored for ideological or selfish reasons.


On November 19th the FDNY boxing team will square off against the NYPD. This is always a great night - plan to attend and support The Bravest. Once again, we thank Bob McGuire and the Boxing Team for their support. If your group would also like to be listed along with our other supporters please contact us at any time.
