Proud to be competing in The Riff Raff Boxing show on March 4th
I stand to fight against the one who calls himself Jay "Stella" Keelan! James is someone I've known over the last few years in and out of our working industry. He was always one for a bit banter until it got serious! James suddenly became brave and called me out to fight for this boxing event, He is already making his excuses that I am younger, Heavier and stronger!
After a few baiting conversations were exchanged, I thought you know what why not take the opportunity to trade some shots whilst supporting such an amazing cause.
I would really hope that all my family, friends and acquaintances would support me, The Riff Raff Society and most importantly Mat on his own amazingly challenging journey to getting better.
Nothing is beyond the reach of anybody - Believe that we can achieve!
Matthew Rimmer's Story
Twelve months ago Mathew Rimmer, suffered a devastating brain hemorrhage caused by a heart infection. He was on life support in a coma for two weeks, following emergency lifesaving brain surgery. The Riff Raff went to visit Matt recently and were really inspired by his spirit. He he is facing a real battle to get anywhere near back to a decent standard of living but there are no set in stone restrictions to how far Mat can develop. He needs expensive specialist speech therapy and movement physio, such therapies cost £100 per session and to really progress Mat needs alot of sessions and the Riff Raff/the boxers and you can really drive this
