I just confirmed an anonymous tip that Fairfax, VA welterweight "Money" Mike Sawyer and legendary trainer Adrian Davis will donate half their purse money from the September 17th boxing card to relief efforts necessary in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Well done, gentlemen!!
Chris Middendorf, the matchmaker for the Sept 17th "Battle of Virginia" at George Mason University, is checking to see if other boxers on the card will follow suit. Sawyer is making his pro debut on that card, so that is a wonderful gesture.

Adrian Davis has always been a class act and it appears that Sawyer is too, especially considering it's Sawyer's debut and Adrian Davis has been having finacial difficulties.
It's great that even in the wake of tremendous adversity, that there are still men who will put their needs aside for the greater good of others; who may have a more difficult situation than their own. Real men will step up to the best of their ability in times of need for themselves and others. How about that thing known as the 'Golden Rule'?
No argument there. I will try to get this world out to an even bigger audience, Hopefully more on the card will do the same thing.
