Knock Out Abuse in the Press
"For 20 years, Fight night and its sister event, Knock Out Abuse, have thrived by substituting unabashed, outsized rowdiness for low-key political correctness. The November 11 events are poised to once again do what they do well: 2,000 guys at the all-male fundraiser will smoke cigars, watch boxing matches and ogle models half their ages. Their wives and girlfriends will drape themselves in the latest designer duds, hoot and holler a raise a ton of money. Then they all gather for drinking, dancing and flirting. Shocking, really."
